Oasis-Acquiesce/Good To Be Free/Talk Tonight / Paul Weller-Changing Man (The White Room 1995)

From 17th April 1995.

Good old Tony. Great to see him on this. No drummer other than Zac Starkey had such an audible presence on the tracks.

Never? 😂😂

[@kimboslice1569]

Tony’s Drumming is just top notch here. A bit of roughness suits the songs perfectly

[@deathkampdrone]

Totally agree with you. Tbh prefer Tony over Alan White doing the same shitty shuffle on different BPM for three albums straight.
Tony is more punk, but Whites style probably worked really well in studio as the layers of guitar dubs multiplied with each album session xD

[@Eightball69]

Yeah Alan White with endless ghost notes. Boring AF

[@MrAndreCoutinho]

I doubt if they would have breakout without Tony, his drumming on Supersonic is what makes that song stand out.

[@buddhull]

Alan could bring Noel’s mounds of yak-fueled guitar noodling back down to Earth and make it sound middling. Tony could make their early driving rock songs sound like they simply had to be reckoned with as he forcibly pounded patterns neither too dense nor too deep; it was simply exactly what was needed to make them larger than live.

[@weet1978able]

The White Room was brilliant man, what a time that was.

Oasis' future drummer Alan White, his brother is drumming for Paul in the clip Steve White. And for good note Steve Cradock later of Ocean Colour Scene is on guitar for Paul as well in the clip. The small Mod world!! Great music!!!

[@valley_robot]

tony was always the best drummer for Oasis, he just needed a few lessons to evolve, It was a shitty thing they did to him, met him once in a pub in Wythenshawe, you could tell he was still gutted by it, he was talking about his new band and how was still doing music, I'm a musician myself and I've been fucked over a few times by bands and managers, I really felt for the guy, my little brother, who is friends with tony, was like "this is our kid Jason, he's a singer and a guitar player, you should get him in your band " I never entertained the idea even for one second, we are about the same age, my time to be a rock star was 20 years ago, I did wish him all the best luck in the world though. good night , he was a nice guy.

Sittin' on my own
Chewin' on a bone
A thousand million
Miles from home when
Something hit me
Somewhere right between the eyes
Sleepin' on a plane
You know you can't complain
You took your last chance
Once again I
Landed, stranded
Hardly even knew your name
I wanna talk tonight
Until the mornin' light
'Bout how you saved my life
You and me see how we are
You and me see how we are
All your dreams are made
Of Strawberry lemonade
And you make sure I
Eat today you
Take me walking
To where you played
When you were young
I'll never say that I
Won't ever make you cry
And this I'll say I
Don't know why I
Know I'm leavin'
But I'll be back another day
I wanna talk tonight
Until the mornin' light
'Bout how you saved my life
(You saved my life)
I wanna talk tonight
(I wanna talk tonight)
'Bout how you saved my life
(I wanna talk tonight)
'Bout how you saved my life
(I wanna talk tonight)
'Bout how you saved my life

[@lives_official]

I feel like the drummers got worse during Oasis. Tony’s playing just seems to fit the songs so well on DM, Alan was good but the others just sound muddy/old and boring....not taking anything away from their talent as musicians they just don’t feel very Oasis.
Liam’s voice is sounding great in these first 2 too.

[@neilsun2521]

Agree. All their songs sounded like the same song after 2000.

[@tinandgonic3927]

Alan was a beast. His brother too when he filled in on the US tour.

[@Ketis1985]

I think Tony was most suitable drummer for Oasis followed by Chris Sharrock. Tonys style was simple but songs rocked really hard when he was playing them. After they got rid of Tony they lost their balls quite a bit from live performances.

[@valley_robot]

@@Ketis1985 yeah I agree, they lost a competent drummer who fitted with the raw sound, never liked alan whites fill or skippy beats on every tune, it's like he struggled to keep it simple, prefer Tonys drumming every time
