![]() ![]() Noel was reported to have replied, “Well, I don’t write shit songs!” At the time, Noel was perhaps justified, as he was pumping out a lot of serviceable material for Oasis’ first two albums, but ‘The Masterplan’ would have made for a very strong album track. It’s a showcase for Oasis’ songwriter Noel Gallagher – he sings lead vocals and plays bass in addition to his usual duties in the band.Ĭreation Records boss Alan McGee told Noel ‘The Masterplan’ was “too good” to be relegated to the B-side of a single. It wouldn’t surprise me if ‘The Masterplan’ had a bigger budget than that of entire albums in the streaming age there’s an amazing amount of effort for a b-side, with an orchestra and a very Beatles-esque backwards guitar solo. Remember the 1990s, when physical albums sold by the truckload? Manchester band Oasis had their second album, (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, sell more than 22 million copies, and this volume of sales allowed them to lavish even their b-sides with loving care.
