Live Forever: Reunited Oasis Plan Albums Box Set

Oasis Complete Studio Albums Collection CD box

Less than a week after announcing a new, slightly expanded edition of sophomore album (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, Oasis are also announcing a box set collecting new pressings of all their studio albums. Ostensibly tied to the ongoing reunion tour (which kicked off in England to audience approval last week), Complete Studio Album Collection is exactly what it says: the band’s seven studio albums issued between 1994 and 2008, plus 1998 B-sides collection The Masterplan. With the exception of that rarities collection, which settled for No. 2, all of these releases topped the U.K. album…

Anyway, Here’s a Deluxe Edition: Oasis’ ‘Morning Glory’ Gets Reissued

July 2, 2025 by Mike Duquette | 2 Comments

We’re days away from Oasis’ unimaginable reunion tour kickoff – and we’re at least getting some new reissue out of the whole thing. The British rock icons will offer a slightly expanded edition of 1995’s (What’s the Story) Morning Glory?, pairing a 2014 remaster of the album (which initially came with additional bonus material) with a bonus EP of new unplugged mixes of four of the album’s tracks (plus a non-album B-side, “Acquiesce.” The group’s songwriter/guitarist Noel Gallagher and Callum Marinho built these new versions from the original multitrack recordings in Noel’s…

Welcome to a special Sunday feature of The Weekend Stream, which takes a look at one of MTV’s great live music programs thanks to a recent reissue of one of its best-known episodes.

The Second Disc’s Guide to Record Store Day 2025: Our Favorite Picks

April 11, 2025 by The Second Disc | 1 Comment

Tomorrow, Record Store Day is once again upon us! It’s that time of year where music lovers and vinyl flippers get together at their favorite physical music retailers and wait in line to snag some treasured albums – almost all of which are pressed on vinyl instead of CD (or, you know, sold on secondary marketplaces for above their retail value). This year, the list tops out at over 300 titles, so there’s very nearly something for everybody. It wasn’t easy to narrow our choices down to around 20 titles, but here…

They Will Have Their Way: Legacy Plans Packed Record Store Day Slate

February 10, 2025 by Mike Duquette | 8 Comments

Is it just us, or has Record Store Day felt a little muted in recent years? Obviously the annual Black Friday celebration boasts less titles than the festivities held every April, but it’s sometimes been a struggle to identify great archival titles or worthy re-pressed discs. Well, that certainly isn’t the case this year: labels seem to have gone into overdrive stockpiling interesting LPs and singles worth a second (or first!) look – and one of the strongest showings might be Sony Music’s Legacy Recordings, who are bowing no less than 16…

Rock ‘N’ Roll Stars Revisited: Oasis Announce Catalogue Expansion

February 26, 2014 by Mike Duquette | 4 Comments

Britpop band Oasis may never be reuniting again thanks to the hilariously toxic relationship between brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher, but the band’s 20th anniversary will be celebrated with several deluxe reissues, the first of which was announced today. This year, all three of the band’s albums released in the 1990s will be remastered and expanded, starting with 1994 debut album Definitely Maybe, to be reissued in May. (The set’s being referred to as the “Chasing the Sun Edition,” to quote a lyric from the band’s “Slide Away.”) Their next two albums, (What’s…
