Reviews
As well as an accomplished assessment of an underrated album from an overrated band, the book is a salutary example of how to interpret politics through culture, and culture through politics.

Synopsis
Oasis's incendiary 1994 debut album Definitely Maybe managed to summarize almost the entire history of post-fifties guitar music from Chuck Berry to My Bloody Valentine in a way that seemed effortless. But this remarkable album was also a social document that came closer to narrating the collective hopes and dreams of a people than any other record of the last quarter century. In a Britain that had just undergone the most damaging period of social upheaval in a century under the Thatcher government, Noel Gallagher ventriloquized slogans of burning communitarian optimism through the mouth of his brother Liam and the playing of the other Oasis 'everymen': Paul McGuigan, Paul Arthurs and Tony McCarroll. On Definitely Maybe , Oasis communicated a timeworn message of idealism and hope against the odds, but one that had special resonance in a society where the widening gap between high and low demanded a newly superhuman kind of leaping. Alex Niven charts the astonishing rise of Oasis in the mid 1990s and celebrates the life-affirming, communal force of songs such as "Live Forever," "Supersonic," and "Cigarettes & Alcohol." In doing so, he seeks to reposition Oasis in relation to their Britpop peers and explore one of the most controversial pop-cultural narratives of the last thirty years., Writing in Manchester in the years 1992-93, in a context in which the depression of social marginalisation was palliated by a culture of radical hedonism and belligerence, Noel Gallagher composed a series of songs that distilled the spirit of the age far better than the more usually celebrated Kurt Cobain. Gallagher's lyrics on Definitely Maybe offered a message of affirmation and hope that was couched in language of remarkable clarity and directness. As Gallagher would later put it, Cobain had everything, and was miserable about it. And we had fuck-all, and I still thought that getting up in the morning was the greatest fucking thing ever, because you didn't know where you'd end up at night...In an era in which deconstructive cynicism was threatening the very existence of the counterculture and the mainstream Left, Oasis offered a radical, anomalous vision of positivity. And the fact this was indisputably a working-class vision founded in solidarity and fraternity was incredibly important. To a post-Thatcherite Britain that had just undergone the most debilitating period of social upheaval in a century, Gallagher ventriloquised slogans of burning communitarian optimism through the mouth of his brother Liam and the playing of the other Oasis everymen, Paul McGuigan, Paul Arthurs, and Tony McCarroll. The sheer elemental energy of Gallagher's idealism was breathtaking...Alex Niven charts the astonishing rise of Oasis in 1993 and 1994 and celebrates the life-affirming, communal force of songs such as Live Forever, Supersonic, and Cigarettes & Alcohol, and in doing so, he seeks to reposition Oasis in relation to their Britpop peers., Oasis's incendiary 1994 debut album Definitely Maybe managed to summarize almost the entire history of post-fifties guitar music from Chuck Berry to My Bloody Valentine in a way that seemed effortless.

- e***j (78)- Évaluations laissées par l'acheteur.6 derniers moisAchat vérifiéOk, so this is complicated... They totally messed up the FIRST shipment, and made it go to a town TWENTY-SIX miles from my address! But they were QUICK TO RESPOND; helped me get a REPLACEMENT book; AND got the replacement here in a good time-frame. I gave them a POSITIVE review ONLY because of how they handled FIXING THE ISSUE. The item came in BRAND NEW and was packaged well. But... they have a bad rep of sending the wrong item or messing up the address info. They need to be more careful.
- 7***5 (218)- Évaluations laissées par l'acheteur.6 derniers moisAchat vérifiéItem is just as described, although it’s pictured larger than actual size; which is the size of a deck of flash cards. Also disappointed that the item was mailed to wrong address or customer mix up & no one responded to my email or apologized or explained why item was sent somewhere else. I don’t know if this is a reflection of seller or seller’s employees? I had a project to use it on & just moved forward. Thank you seller.
- 7***r (586)- Évaluations laissées par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifiéNice book at a good price. Only issue I had with this Seller is the fact they use a "third party" shipping company called OSM Worldwide, that is very poor at their job. This third party caused a delay of 3 to 4 days at least in my receiving the book I purchased. I have contacted the Seller and made them aware of this issue. Should you decide to do business with this Seller just be aware that your book may take longer than usual to arrive.
