Never thought McGee would be this likeable. He's completely genuine. Amazing story he has .
Saying Slide Away is their greatest song: man after my own heart
Nice one, the man who personally to me found the best band to ever walk this planet. I grew up with them and they were the Beatles of my generation
Same here remember the first time I heard live demonstration I was hooked
Solarized exactly stats speak for themselves
Ross Stirling 👍
@Gaz too right mate - Primal scream were amazing !
Great interview really resonated with me as a recovering addict who is now just starting to kick prescription meds the last stand of drugs in my body it's going to take a while being methadone but I'll get there peace

Same here. Good luck.
Dunno why this hasn't got the most views. Alan, pure legend!! Brilliant again James

Loved that chat..thanks , James and Alan.
Tony McCarrol the original Drummer of oasis would be good to have on I read his book really good story but would be good to hear more on his life after oasis.
Definitely. He played on the best album Oasis ever did. I think he gets a bad rap. His playing wasn’t anywhere near as bad as people have said. Owen Morris called his drumming basic but the timing was great.
Michael Kerr Why the fuck would you want to hear about Tony McCarroll's life after Oasis?
@@sratus because he got booted out of one of the biggest bands in the world at the time and missed out on the life changing wealth that would have come with it. Interesting to read how one coped with it over the years. Why the fuck you think?
What was the name of the book mate?
@@GreenGiant-bs3no Oasis The Truth : My Life As Oasis’s Drummer 👍
What a story this is and James i am so happy you continue to give the homeless a voice Alan is a character who has had an amazing life keep up the good work James

Great interview,was never interested in Oasis in the 90’s as was too immersed in the Scottish rave scene to really bother about pop music (loved the stone roses&Happy Mondays though)but find interviews like this fascinating. Loved the documentary on BBC “Road to Memphis” a few months ago with Primal Scream and Alan featured on that

Just after watching Oasis at the barras 2001 on SkyArts last night
Me too. Pulp after it.
@@beetrootjuice8849 tried like fuck to get to that gig but wasnae happenin! Trying to get a ticket for murrayfield the year before wiz tricky enough so them playing barras was a no go. Woulda been amazing to see them there
@@PatchedThePipe The barras woulda been the place to see them mate. Smaller more confined venue. Unfortunately never got to see them live but I still live in hope. Never thought I'd get to see the Stone Roses but it happened for me at Hampden in 2017.
@@PatchedThePipe I was there 😀😀
Watching now, hope it's as good as the others. Haha sitting in his Sambas and Kappa

Another Great One James
Do you have any merchandise James (I'm visiting Scotland next month for 2 weeks and it would be great to wear a hoodie with you on the front. It would be good advertising for your channel too!)?
Your interviews are so good and you seem to ask the right questions, time and time again. I have learned a lot about certain Scottish characters. My favourite must be Blink McDonald. He seems like a great guy, the sort you could have a great night down at the pub with, do you know what I min?!
Keep up the good work! 🙂👍

I used to get severe headaches that I would get every 2 weeks or so. I gave up coffee and cigarettes 18 months ago and touchwood I don’t get the headaches anymore. Definitely right about coffee. It is a drug.

Wish he had told more stories about the libertines!! But still great stories great interview
derek ireland next time 👍🏼
Top show thanks 😁
Great interview
It’s crazy with homelessness now. I’ve been homeless before, thankfully I’ve sorted myself out now. It’s illegal to squat in private dwellings such as a house but not illegal to squat in commercial buildings. How stupid is that?? You should be able to squat anywhere as long as you respect the property and don’t wreck it. Great interview. No talking over Alan McGee just a nice flowing chat.
Fantastic chat!
Man if you could get the legend Liam on tor a podcast

Just noticed this video 👌 Oasis biggest band on this planet STILL! one they will be back
Alan got me into the apple cider vinegar
Kev M 👍🏼😀
The man who signed Oasis
I'd like to ask Alan how he went from having a fiver in London...to...opening a club called "the living room".
How did that come about....where did you get funding?
he'll never give you straight answer
Before I turned it off at the point I realised he was a friend of that arch criminal Geldof I was already thinking that myself, he said it as if you just wake up one morning and by magic youre a club owner
@@richardmurray2068
It was just strange going from having a fiver...to ....voila!! ....I now have a club.
Let's now sign a band who will make us millions.
It's a better rags to riches story than Dick whittington : )
Exactly. That's what I would like to know as well..
That's the problem with a lot of these interviews, they won't tell you the truth. He was probably selling drugs. James is too scared to ask the real questions, does not want to upset the guest.
that's right jamsey, about that gut/brain thing forgot that alang with apple cider vinegar thing, got told that aswell years back.
Get lain and neol on the the big O back together hahaha BIBLICAL
What about your posing nights at the Notting Hill Arts Club circa 2003 Alan?
