In this excerpt from Gibson TV’s Icons with Noel Gallagher of Oasis and Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, Noel reflects on the third Oasis studio album, “Be Here Now” and the tour of America after their Knebworth gigs nearly ruined the band. Listen as he shares stories from the “Be Here Now,” recording sessions, how they were kicked out of Abbey Road Studios in London, and how he really feels about one of Oasis’s most successful albums.
Released on August 21, 1997, “Be Here Now” was the follow-up album to “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?” and went on to sell millions of copies worldwide. But Noel isn’t a fan of the record. Watch as Noel reveals how he feels the band entered the studio too soon after their massive success with “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?” Noel talks about the challenges of recording songs that he felt weren’t initially strong enough to make it onto the first two Oasis records and how some of the seven-plus minute songs affected the live shows. He reflects on the pressure of following up their first two iconic albums and how different “Be Here Now” was compared to “Definitely Maybe” and “(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?”
Even though he doesn’t like the album as a record, Britpop was in full swing, and Noel fondly recalls the chaotic yet enjoyable period that followed, talking about the band’s experiences on the road and the fact they were still a band having fun. This interview offers a unique glimpse into a pivotal moment in Oasis’s history and Noel’s personal journey as a songwriter, learning lessons from recording what is arguably one of the most successful albums in UK music history.
