Oasis – (What’s the story) Morning Glory 25th Anniversary Edition

Description

With October 2nd, 2020 marking 25 years since Oasis released their iconic second album

(What’s The Story) Morning Glory?, Big Brother Recordings release a limited edition silver

coloured LP with remastered audio to celebrate this milestone.

Following only 14 months after Oasis’s classic 1994 album Definitely Maybe, widely regarded

one of the greatest debuts of all time, (What’s The Story) Morning Glory is the UK’s 5th bestselling

album of all time and best-selling album of the nineties. The album entered the UK

Official Charts at No.1 with 269,000 sales, with a total of 10 weeks at the summit since release

and almost eight and a half years in the UK Official Album Chart cumulatively.

Worldwide, it went Top 10 in every major market in the world and became the band’s

breakthrough album in the US, peaking at No. 4 on the Billboard 200 with over 5 million

sales, and a global total now in excess of 22 million.

Produced by Noel Gallagher and Owen Morris, (What’s The Story) Morning Glory? was

recorded at the fabled Rockfield Studios in Monmouth, Wales, completed in a staggeringly

brief two-week period during May and June 1995.

An undeniably superlative rock record, it includes several of Oasis’ biggest selling UK

singles – the legendary, universally loved anthem ‘Wonderwall’, ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’,

‘Roll With It’, ‘Some Might Say’ together with tracks like ‘She’s Electric’, ‘Morning Glory’ and

‘Champagne Supernova’, which are timeless anthems and radio staples known to every

generation of music fan.

(What’s The Story) Morning Glory established Oasis as a national and international

phenomenon, the most universally popular British guitar band since the glory days of The

Beatles, Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin, and the album’s enduring and omnipresent appeal

was demonstrated when it was awarded Best British Album of 30 Years at The BRIT Awards

2010. In the years since it’s release, the album has inspired thousands of young guns to pick

up guitars and form bands, and is counted by dozens of successful bands and songwriters

as a major influence on their careers.
