@@bueller8278 True but I think his comment is referring to the fact that he’s not really a virtuoso or so technically gifted at guitar. Noel is very good at guitar but there are session guitarists with more speed, agility and precision - but where Noel transcends is with his composition/writing abulity.
What I really loved about Oasis is that they taught me that you don't need to be flashy or very technically sound to have fun writing and playing music
Very true. Noel made guitar music accessible. He often got slagged off by snobby critics for being simple but he wrote massive songs that anyone can learn and play. Top guy, top band
@@theselector4733 Exactly, and his ability to sing melodies that just naturally go with all the fast chord changes is enough to blow plenty trained musicians right out the water! You can get there but you need to write a hell of a lot of songs.
@Anony-mousse True, but he portrays the 'don't give a shit" RnR attitude very well on occasions. I recall having an argument once with a bloke who knew Noel personally and said he had a lazy outlook on life; "Why do something today, you can put off till tomorrow". But my perspective was that you can't be as successful as he's been in the music industry if you don't do the hard yards and have a workmanlike attitude. The amount of discipline and self control he must've had to stick with it after all the shit that happened with Liam and the other 3 is monumental.
He is indeed one of the few songwriters I'd call a straight up genius. He can use the same great chords again and again again, yet make it sound a bit new every time. That and he's just a brilliant wordsmith and storyteller 🦋
'Hope.' Noel's songwriting always gives you a feeling of hope. Stunning. I was 24 in 1994 when I stood at a bar in the south of England and first heard Live Forever. My jaw dropped and continued to do so as they ripped apart the shite from the 80s and gave us all hope that the music industry would change and man, did they change it. I saw Oasis in a pub in Huddersfield in early 1994 and took my then 8 yo Daughter to see Noel in Detroit back in 2018. (We moved to Canada) In 94, Noel bought me and a mate a pint. In 2018, he popped his head out of the double doors next to the stage and handed my daughter, who was then on my shoulders, his setlist. He's grown far from that council estate in Burnage, but not ONCE has he forgotten where he came from nor those he grew up with. A national treasure and deservedly so.
I've wanted this guitar since I first saw it in the Don't Look Back In Anger music video in 1995. Now, after more than 25 years, I finally have one, and it was well worth the wait! A seriously impressive guitar for the price, and even running clean straight into an amp, the sound is classic Oasis. Epiphone absolutely nailed this clone of Noel's iconic Riviera. Even if I couldn't play it, I would have bought it to hang on my wall. I love it!
@@phenixreturns better than who? Lennon? The above mentioned are certainly better than Noel Gallagher, if that's who we're talking about, but Lennon is up there with the best of them.
@@phenixreturns Chuck Berry and Bruce Springsteen better songwriters than Noel Gallagher?!?! Jesus christ. And Elton John doesn't even write his own lyrics.
I can’t tell you how happy I am that Gibson/Epiphone did this, and announced it the same day as the release of the Gibson ES-355. I knew that ES was going to be at least $6-7k, and I simply could not have afforded it. So, to see them also surprise us with a more affordable Noel Gallagher signature guitar, with arguably just as much significance in its place in Noel’s career, I jumped at the opportunity and bought one immediately. And I’m glad I did, because both models are SOLD OUT! Thanks, Gibson/Epiphone, and Noel for doing this.
Between Don’t Look Back in Anger and Live Forever before it, these were two of the songs that made me an Oasis fan. Being 14-16 during these times was amazing. I didn’t identify with grunge. Even though being an American, I was more drawn to the care free and positive presentation of what was going on in England and the UK in those days. Whether the content of the songs had a darker moodier meaning didn’t really get to me until my 20’s! There really wasn’t an American counterpart to the Brit pop/indie movement in those days. Noel, Liam, and Oasis were definitely the gateway to all of that for me!
This is perfect. An artist series is not really about interesting spec but emotional connection to your favorite music. This promotion does exactly that. Really make me want one just for memory sake.
I love Noel!!! ❤ For every reason of nostalgia, great songs, great sound, playability, legends who played Epis... first electric I bought was Epi Semi Hollow ES335. Affordable with a great range. Beatles to Oasis...My heros played Epis!
You can be the best guitar player on the planet, but not be able to write a song. What Noel does better than anyone of the last 30 years, is write songs that people love. I was at a wedding 4 weeks ago and the DJ had the usual mix of half decent tracks mixed in with cheese. Last song he played was Champagne Supernova. The whole room ended up singing along, arm in arm, at the top of their lungs. There are very few songwriters that have the ability to unite people with their music. I struggle to think of an artist who does it better than Oasis....in the UK anyway.
I just bought one!!!! This guitar is Primo!!!❤️😃😃😃 I am so happy with it. I am still on the high of the new guitar purchase. I don't know where to begin. I just don't want to put it down.
Brilliant! Love the idea of getting Noel back to that place. Had a sunburst Epiphone Cheraton once upon a time, thanks to my love of Noel/Oasis. I loved it and played all my gigs with it, but had to sell to pay off some debts aged 19/20. Regretted it ever since!
It's the mystery that keeps all of this alive. We love you Noel. Saw you at kenwood house few months ago. Now in Thailand playing you music In the bars. Living the dream x
I got one yesterday evening. I didn't think I'd get my hands on one. It's a beautiful guitar. It's very well put together, the electronics are good, the neck is beautifully finished. @Gibson, Great job!!
This is why I love Noel Gallagher and the music of Oasis... he's not sitting there tooting his own or licking himself... he's confident enough to say that he doesn't know why or how, but all he knows is that the songs somehow happened.
The genius that has never taken one guitar lesson in his life... . We need more people like this . I will never teach guitar my kids despite I have a lot of guitars . They have to struggle on their own .
greetings from Cordoba Argentina!!! Oasis fans have been waiting for a long time for the reissues of the most iconic models that it knew how to use in the 90s... now we wait for the Sheraton II
gibson TV makes some of highest quality shit ive ever watched on youtube. and i know someone from gibson TV is gonna read this, so just know that people notice the level of quality of these productions and we appreciate it.
I thought I had all the guitars I needed. Then, I found out about this Epiphone Noel Gallagher Riviera. This video is gorgeous. What a great way to share with friends and loved one why I need this guitar.
i still have my Man City Blue Epiphone Supernova from the 00s and still LOVE it. I wonder how different these Riviera is from the Supernova (based on a Casino/Sheraton?).
This is gold!. Noel's Riviera signature guitar and this material. It's absolutely amazing how time flies but the Oasis feeling is still there, living inside. Thank you Epiphone, Gibson and of course thanks to The Chief. Great video.
This is one of the best campaign advertisements I've ever seen. For all the Oasis fans out there like me (and maybe for any person)... it was EPIC. Sadly, I couldn't get mine. Sold out. Gibson. Could you produce another thousand pieces please?
I bought the Epiphone Riviera in lightblue only for Oasis. I was a big fan of the band during my teenage years. Now I'm 33, I'm not that fan anymore and I even had to sell that guitar. But playing the Oasis song in that Epiphone Riviera...was totally MINDBLOWING.
"If id have known what that song would become today, youd never finish it- youd be trying to make it too perfect" thats such a great quote that is probably true about a great many songs by a great many artists. Im reminded of Kurt Cobain thinking Smells Like Teen Spirit was rubbish
If I'd have known what that song would become today, you'd never finish it, you'd try to make it too perfect. Who knows why do any of those songs, that these great songs become anything. Praise the lord 💙💙💙
Of course Noel's and Bonehead's Rivieras were made in Japan back then... they even had those fret end nibs. I used to own one of these. Maybe Epiphone should do a Elitist/Elite run...
@@moosey62 Sure you were. I totally believe that you gave a guitar to Johnny Marr and toured with David Gilmour even though I can't find a thing about you on the internet
"I'm a songwriter, I'm not a guitar player" probably the most honest quote by someone like him ever
I dont think he can say that when you consider several Oasis hits have like a dozen electric guitar tracks
@@bueller8278 True but I think his comment is referring to the fact that he’s not really a virtuoso or so technically gifted at guitar. Noel is very good at guitar but there are session guitarists with more speed, agility and precision - but where Noel transcends is with his composition/writing abulity.
I saw them in Denver front row in 2008 & he can shred like the best of them.
@@barkerpoo yep a lot of pentatonic stuff going on but it was obviously good enough. It certainly didn't bother me!
That is a quiet good guitar player who talks like that

Very true. Noel made guitar music accessible. He often got slagged off by snobby critics for being simple but he wrote massive songs that anyone can learn and play. Top guy, top band
This is what attracted me to play guitar. 🙏🏼👌🏼
The devil's in the detail though. They may be 'simple' chords but the structure, arrangements and multi-tracking are exceptional.

Being a songwriter like Noel is a lot harder than being a guitar player
He is indeed one of the few songwriters I'd call a straight up genius. He can use the same great chords again and again again, yet make it sound a bit new every time. That and he's just a brilliant wordsmith and storyteller 🦋
That's an obvious statement. Why wouldn't writing guitar and vocals not be as difficult as just playing guitar?
But lets be honest, he can play the guitar really really good
I can shred all day couldn't dream of writing supersonic
Couldn’t agree more. Too few people realize this. You’re either born with it or you’re not.
Goosebumps especially towards the end ♥️
Noel is the only rockstar to actually look BETTER after 30 years.
And his songs 𝘨𝘦𝘵 better too! The Mighty O is untouchable but his post O songs are just as good. We’re just hearing them played in a different way.
Noel ages like an older blues or country cat.does no
want to look like a 20 something or other..comfortable with his groove.
Roger waters
@@mdomine245Good shout.
I think u mistakenly forgot Slash, Bono and The Edge
with that guitar, he made history, he wrote a song that could be a national anthem! that's why he's my maximum idol!

The time period does not play a roll for me. The song is timeless.
I did. It was fucking rubbish as is this song.
Absolutely. Word.
Noel Gallagher: a national treasure.
An international treasure
I always loved noels rytham and lead on guitar he had his own unique style and sounded awesome. he underestimates himself as a guitar player for sure.
Love this guy. Love listening to how he tells stories.
Commend Noel for making this guitar affordable for Oasis guitar playing fans. Lovely guitar 🎸
How much is it?... anymore than 500 nicker and it's way to much for me 😆
Everyone is talking about Noel and Epi (they are both absolutely cool) but look at this stunning video production quality 🔥🔥🔥hats off to the film crew
agreed.

@@dennisedinger2676 His brother is right there with him
Dead in the Water is sublime and shows he's lost. nothing in 25-30 years.
Every time Noel releases an album I watch his interviews and they are great.

Oasis is so damn nostalgic! You just feel like you’re in England and I’m here in Alabama. Lol
But I’ve been to England
Such a beautiful Guitar!
I'm crying... I love that man
My first guitar was an Epiphone Riviera wine red because that’s what Noel plays
I want this guitar with all my soul
This band was my life in my teens
Why are just in the teens? ;)
MY FAVORITE BAND ALL THE TIME
The ending tho. Seeing Noel young and older. That’s me and maybe definitely you? 😢✌🏼
Can't believe what I'm seeing! I have always wished Epiphone would re-release this model and here it is along with a great video, amazing!
Super talented. Super douchy..

Fun fact : Back then Noel used a Fender Stratocaster with an AC30 to record Don't Look Back In Anger's guitar solo part.
That Strat was given to him by Johnny Marr
