    as an american, i really liked the Morning Glory album I had bought at that time...........but when a friend exposed me to all the singles & b sides - blown away & became as big of an Oasis fan in America as could be. I remember listening to Listen Up (guess i was followed orders well) over & over again. And being so excited that I now had a recording of the awesome songs I didn't recognize at their concert (Acquiesce & Whatever). Blown away, and I didn't even like some of the most revered b sides in Talk Tonight & Masterplan. Quality is rightfully valued in music - but quantity is usually overlooked. For a band to dump that many great songs on its fans such a short timespan should really be appreciated. Awesome - and awesome video!

    First Oasis single I picked up was 'D'You Know What I Mean' in 97 and it made me go out and seek every b-side I could. Luckily I found the cigarette boxsets of DM and MG not long after! I live in Canada and hunting down the new Oasis singles became my favourite pastime in the 90s/2000s

    Yeah James cheers as well. I always remember bootleg tapes of music were very similar to the 80s old pirate videotapes. You could always find a source to get a hold on them. Totally agree on Oasis version of Street Fighting Man better than the Stones one. Still prefer The Beatles version of I am the Walrus over the Oasis live one. When you talked about She's Love song I dunno if Noel was having a Elvis or Nashville moment to himself. It's certainly not his best. At least he put it out there Noel and not waiting on that perfect song or album again.

    That made very interesting listening. I think all oasis fans would enjoy it because they all have emotional attachments to the songs. James' comments on the Stand by Me B sides were spot-on on my opp. My Sis Lover and Fever are real bangers while Going Nowhere breaks it up a bit by adding a more whistful dimension. I would be interested to know where James would have ranked the singles without taking the B sides into account. Great idea for a vid. Thanks, boys:)

    Ah sorry about that. We talk about every track in the full (over 2 hour) version which you can get on the Oasis Podcasts Patreon, but I had to cut things down a bit for my channel so one or two discussions did unfortunately have to be culled. I like the white label demo alot - but primarily as a history piece and the sound of the band when they had JUST got signed. I do honestly prefer the Definitely Maybe version because Owen Morris's mix is just outrageously cool. And Liams vox too.

Speaking of "Alive", I've always really liked that - it points back to Noel's earlier Manchester influences, and there's almost a New Order feel to it.

I love your passion for the same kind of music James and love this channel. And I have to say now that some Oasis b-sides were better than their A-sides. I have said this for years and always will say it. From day one til their later stuff they had B-sides that astounded me...... Let's all make believe for instance..... Just WOW!!!!

I am the Walrus was recorded live at a Sony seminar instead of the Glasgow Cathouse as well !! Agree with you about Some Might Say.

    "The Masterplan" compilation always felt weird to me. Not only was it quite redundant, but some choices are debatable. As you pointed out, the absence of "It's Better People" is completely unfair when "The Swamp Song" is on there...The one decision I'll never understand is why they decided to shorten "I Am The Walrus". The noise freakout at the end with Noel playing with feedback and guitar effects is essential. It's a bit I would crank up. I bet some people don't even know that the version on "The Masterplan" is incomplete in comparison to what had been released before. With a collection clocking at 66 minutes, it could have included "It's Better People" AND the full "I Am The Walrus"...

    I'm listening now as I write this - yeah the hats are a mile out man. They sound like they're being dragged on strings behind a bus. Maybe it's the OCD studio guitarist side of me, but it's SO out-of-time to my ears. But I am used to listening to music as a studio musician, and I guess most people wouldn't listen in the same probably overly intense way lol Argh this is the worst. I'm switching it off - done. I just can't listen to that. It's like a ticking clock that slightly speeds up and slows down in a way designed to turn your brain to mush hahahahaha

We know Noel hates it and never plays it so it almost feels like a song by another band to me. 35:30 Those play stats on Spotify are telling sometimes. The Whatever single has 55 million plays vs well over 73 million for Half the world away which was the b side.

    What annoyed me with later Oasis singles (from the 00’s) was as the chart rules changed, they did less tracks for b-sides. And so many of these weren’t very great or were live tracks or re-mixes. It would’ve been great if every Oasis single had 3 b-sides, 2 of which being new songs. But hey, didn’t happen and Noel would hate me for this post! Love both of your enthusiasm for Oasis.
