Album Notes Although long-players like DEFINITELY MAYBE and (WHAT'S THE STORY) MORNING GLORY? are certified Britpop classics, Oasis has always been a singles band, so 2006's two-disc best-of, STOP THE CLOCKS, was a welcome arrival. Oasis has never been touted for their groundbreaking originality, but it's precisely their retro-styled concoction of irrepressible hooks and alternately chiming and roaring guitars that makes their music so appealing. STOP THE CLOCKS drives that point home and then some. Stretching from early gems like "Rock 'N' Roll Star" and "Live Forever" through latter period singles such as "Lyla," with the mega-hits ("Wonderwall") and B-sides sprinkled in along the way, the compilation serves to remind why the band was one of the most popular British acts of the '90s and beyond. Throughout, the towering wall of guitars, Liam Gallagher's sneering vocals, and brother Noel's impeccable songcraft create a rock template that pushes all the right pleasure buttons, and with 23 of the band's best on offer, STOP THE CLOCKS provides a lot of pleasure. | Find errors in the product description?

Reviews Review created: 09/24/08 by: Odds are if you're reading this you already know who Oasis are. Brit pop rock that's very mellow and melodic. This is a greatest hits compilation. Fairly solid, two discs, good selection and mix. Would have liked it better if they had contained it to only one long playing disc. For my personal tastes they could have cut out Champagne Supernova. Worth having in most any collection. Review ID: 10000000008803401 Was this review helpful?

The whole process was painless. Review ID: 10000000007645237 Was this review helpful? Report this review ALL YOUR FAVORITE SONGS PLUS THE LESSER KNOWN GREAT SONGS.A MUST HAVE FOR ANY OASIS FAN.
