Depends where you are. In the UK and Europe, Oasis were huge around 1995-98 and far bigger than all of those other acts you mention.

Of course you’re right about the regional issue. And, most of those I listed peaked by 1996. I know it can be considered a matter of taste, but it’s almost undeniable that Thom Yorke, Maynard James Keenan, and Chris Cornell (and probably Layne Staley) are/were all superior singers/vocalists compared to Liam. He wasn’t keeping rock alive for me. He was ruining it. Haha!

completely deniable imo. Those grunge bands you are obviously into all sound the same to me. Thom Yorke sings like a two bit Bono. The rest are all just pretentious whiny un-melodic screamers. Liam has a unique and distinguishable voice that is all his own.

I attended Oasis’ final U.K. show at Wembley Stadium: beer, cocaine and sheer madness. Utterly wasted and mad for it.

Second-hand embarrassment reading that. Reads like satire.

You must lead a very boring life pal, go and listen to some boring radiohead and let us take care of the Rock n Roll stuff.

Sure pal

‘Mad fer it’

I worked with a guy who told me his father saw the Doors once, well sort of.
They introduced them “ Ladies and Gentlemen from Los Angeles California-The Doors!!!

The band began playing, Morrison staggered out from backstage kept walking until he went off the end of the stage and crash landed into the orchestra pit. That was it, shows over.

After a good laugh visualizing that I told him” I have to be honest,I would’ve paid $500 dollars to see that.

There is no record of this happening, Your mate lied. Morrison did fall into an orchestra pit once, but the gig continued.

The ultimate live Doors resource.

Could be, but I prefer to use the Keith method with this one, never let facts get in the way of a good story.
Even though I never saw Oasis live or owned their music they were an undeniably great band.
When in the hell did everyone start equating talent with being a likable nice guy?
The first 20 years I followed the Stones we just took for granted they were a bunch of arrogant pricks.

Liam is a better vocalist than Keenan, Yorke and Cornell? There is no way you can seriously believe that. All 3 have voices way more unique, dynamic, and recognizable than Liam’s. You don’t have to be a fan, but their vocal talents dwarf Liam’s. Not even the same ballpark.

“You’re my wonderwaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllll!!!” Like that’s not whiny and nasally? Yikes. Now listen to this. No way Liam could even approach this…

Cornell could do what Liam does but Liam couldn’t sing like Cornell. Like what he does or not, Cornell is a far superior vocalist. Liam can’t even come close to approaching Cornell’s range or power. Do some research, the vast majority is in my camp, not yours.

Please provide proof of Liam’s superiority. Have a feeling I’ll be waiting.

Yeah sure pal as you keep on commenting on them.... Would you call them d**s in front of their faces? Are you 12 years old?

What are you doing on a Stones forum anyway if you don't like Rock n Roll? Go listen to radiohead and those other miserable dwarfs and let us Rock n Rollers dig what we like.

Apples to Oranges.

Even within the grunge genre, you had singers of very different qualities and timbres. Cobain, Cornell, Lanegan, Stayley, Vedder, Weiland and Mark Arm all had very different voices and the bands were of different styles, which gave their music a unique quality. Oasis are the same, Liams voice is a defining quality in the Oasis sound. There’s no point in comparing the voices or the guitar players or the drummers. The music is there and you either like it as a band offering or not.

Fair enough. At least you admit those other guys vary in style. Quietbeatle said they all sound the same to him/her. And thanks for mentioning Mark Arm.

Mudhoney to me are the only band whom the grunge term actually applied. Pearl Jam are a rock band, Nirvana were a punk band, Alice in Chains & Soundgarden leaned heavily into metal, Screaming Trees were a psychedelic rock band..

I was lucky to see all those guys live and as dumb as it sounds, Cobain was the best Nirvana singer, Stayley the best Alice in Chains singer, Cornell the best Soundgarden singer etc... They all gave their bands a unique voice to the unique sound of each band. They delivered the songs in a way unique to their band.

Liam is similar with Oasis.. He sang in a pronounced English accent, added a splash of Johnny Rotten and is the best Oasis singer there is. He delivers that material in a way that made Oasis.

Slide Away is a good place to start if you think Liam can’t sing.

Well Oasis DID save Rock n Roll. Hadn't it been for them I would never have bought Exile On Main St or Chester Burnett's or Little Walter's records. Anyway, Thank you VERY much NashvilleBlues (that name is TOO good for ya as i bet you don't dig George Jones or Waylon either) for letting everyone dig what they want. Just stay with the Stones. Forget midget ginger twats like lonegan or that oxford c**t, thom yorke. Tom with a h? Tom's too good for him or summat? W A N K E R S

NOW LET US ALL GET BACK TO WHAT MIGHT BE THE L A S T Mudda FOOk*in tour of our Boys!!!!!!! Charlie's gone but we gotta Roll With It! Charlie would have loved us all to get along! No more slagging off!!! Alright?????

And Rock n Roll is all about THE STONES and looking cool. If you wanna be clever go listen to Thaichovsky, Mozart, Shostakovitch or Wagner!

Name is too good for me? If you say so. I’m related to Miranda Lambert’s guitarist. I have Johnny Cash’s autograph. I know the sister of Taylor Swift’s song topic “Picture to Burn.” Met Keith Urban. Met DJ Fontana. I know Ronnie McDowell’s (now there’s a deeper country cut for you) family. I know Joe and Rose Lee Maphis’ family. Saw Willie Nelson last month. Just more of a rock fan than country.

Nice description of Mark Lanegan (could you be any more hateful?). And rock and is about looking cool? Yikes. No wonder you don’t like the early 90’s music scene that killed the “cool looking,” hair metal scene. We all have our preferences, but saying Liam is a more skilled vocalist than Chris Cornell is immeasurably absurd.

Oasis may have saved rock for you, but not for me or anyone else I know.

Oasis' first two albums had so many great tunes, and just about all of their B-sides were better than most bands A-sides.
This opening track from the (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? is still a thrill...hard to believe it's been nearly 30 years....





Not sure how anyone could completely dismiss them in favor of some of the depressing grunge bands or the oddball weirdos from Radiohead,
but there's no accounting for taste, to each his own, one mans junk is another mans treasure, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, etc, etc., etc.
From my perspective, thank goodness Oasis came on the scene, and put the rock back in to rock and roll.

They’re ok. I just tend to gravitate toward more harsh, odd music. Oasis was too tame for me, musically (I own 3 of their albums). Tons of people love Oasis. Just not me. And that’s ok.

Yeah NashvilleBlues, thats OK, and as I said to each his own, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, etc, etc., etc. I also said in a previous post I really liked some of those bands you mentioned also -
particularly Soundgarden and Alice in Chains. But I also loved Oasis who sort of took over when the other bands withered away and basically died off - in some cases literally.

Aside from a couple of Beatles covers , never saw them as Beatles tribute/imitators.
Yes they wrote some great tunes like the Beatles, and yes had a great catalogue like the Beatles, and yes they always praised the Beatles as being #1, but don't really see and/or hear the Beatles too much in their music.
They also covered some Stones tunes, along with the Who, Slade, and Neil Young among others, but they were always unique and truly original to themselves.
They were inspired by all these great bands that most of us here love...what's not to like?!!!

I like to seperate a band's music from the personalities. It's why I couldn't give a hoot about where Mick lives or if Keith is still off the fags or any of the other pathetic tabloid dramas people latch on to.

And let's face it. none of us know what Mick and Keith are really like because we only get to see their public persona. We just fill in the (very big) gaps with our own fantasies.

For people who have been following a band who were notorious for cultivating a bad boy image and pressing the buttons of the older generation, this shouldn't need saying. So let's cut Mr Gallagher a bit of slack huh?

He left the stage with his band after few notes at the beginning.
The mike was replaced twice.
Insults to the soundboard guys.
And bye, bye.
The crowd was furious (25,000 people)

What a surprise!

Never liked his band. Poseurs.

They're no different than Hootie And The Blowfish - that many people can be wrong.
