EXCELLENT REVIEW!!!! Well thought out, concise and detailed. I like the fact you listened to the album 20 times. There are many "reviewers" AND "commentators" out there who are talking crap about this album after 1 or 2 listens.
Thanks, Selector! Really glad that you liked the review 🙂 I believe in giving an album a fair shake, you can't really do that with one or two listens. Cheers!
Great overview and analysis! And I say this as one of the relatively few Americans who’s been a fan of the likes of Oasis, Stone Roses, The La’s, Cast, Paul Weller, Ocean Colour Scene, The Verve, Travis, etc. for years. This is definitely (maybe? 😅) one of the best rock albums in recent years just for the sound. Greg Kurstin really brought that fresh and crisp yet punchy production value that he’s fine tuned since “As You Were” and did the songs justice 💯 (Nice dig at the end to the hipster indie reviewers! They may have great musical taste in general, but my gosh they can be so insufferable with their “sophistication” 😂)
Great review. I love Liam and John and think the album is a real guitar led classic , which we need more of in rock. Americans could never get their head around the fact that Oasis just stood there and let the songs do the talking,,, they were never meant to be guns & roses running around the stage in spandex pants ( gotta love Axl ). Just hope people give the album a chance. Where did it chart in America?
Thanks, Justice! Yeah, Americans definitely don't get it. Americans often just see the music as an avenue to celebrity worship, the music is secondary. I'm painting with a broad brush but Americans are more into the flash and surface than they are into the substance. I just looked at the Billboard 200 for US albums and this album is nowhere to be found.
Could have called the album "Lennon Hendrix 68" (about half the album sounds like that, in a good way, its very enjoyable)... Rainbow is fantastic, i just feel myself smiling away when that solo comes in. Thanks for the review, had no idea about the Tom Wolfe reference ✌️
Spot on! I think a lot of the naysayers discounted it after a tentative listen and didn't really give it a chance. Happens with new releases all the time. People just don't have the patience anymore. Too bad since they miss out on great albums.
Brilliant review. Oasis are the band I love the most, The Stone Roses are my joint second fave band ever. In first listens I was underwhelmed and disappointed by this album, but a couple of months on, it’s grown wings and sounds not so bad at all. John Squire’s guitar playing is sublime, as always. It’s a collaboration to dream of and it’s better than so much of the stuff around today It’s not ‘the best album since Revolver’ as Liam claimed, in typical Gallagher arrogance and defiant swagger, of course it’s not, but it’s still more than welcome Just Another Rainbow is such a brilliant song. Tune!!!
Thanks Ted! This album is definitely a grower. I think a lot of people that discounted it initially have grown to appreciate it after a few more listens. Cheers!
I fell asleep watching this and you stayed in my dream telling me that Kurt Cobain sung a few lines in the style of John Lennon and that he also added sme guitar licks. Then I woke up to you giving your thoughts on the album and was like "what the fck just happened." lol.
Shocked to hear john is 61. Never even thought of what age he was. Stunned. Even though. It obviousky makes sense haha. Must be touring for hair dye money 😂😂
Spot on, Trevor! I didn't pick up on it at the time of my review but I do believe that the spiral pattern was likely based on a rose. Makes sense. Thank you!
Great to hear a well considered in-depth review in this day and age. Well done, sir! Love the album!
Thank you!! Glad you're also digging the album 🙂

Hey, Pete! Thanks for watching and the comments. Greg Kurstin is this album's secret weapon for sure. He did an outstanding job.

i also give 9/10 to the album . very listenable fluent and strong . Liam’s vocal John’s guitar 1+1>2
Glad you're digging it too!
Love this whole album great review.

I loved the break down you’ve done here.. I agree wholeheartedly on your verdict. Keep on keeping 🇬🇧
Thanks, Carl!

Thanks, Chubby! Glad you're digging the album and it certainly has that late 60s thing going. A vibe that will never die.
Hey great review! Just did one myself… we seem to have agreed on a lot 🙂 cheers, Jack
@@TheVinylVoyage-ud3uf Thanks, really appreciate it! I'll check out your channel. Subbed!
First 2 listens. Hated it.
Then something clicked and I started really enjoying it.
Right on, Dizzy! It didn't grab me right away. This is why multiple listens are so important. Thanks for the comment!
Same here!!!!

First listens it's good, after a week it turned into the best album since oasis

You're geat. Thanks
Thank you
GREAT ALBUM👍🏻😎😎😎
I like it but can't give it more than an 8 even with my bias

Hahaha... thanks for the laugh!! Best comment I've read in some time. I just hope that the dream wasn't a nightmare 🙂
greg kurstin = legend

Dont get me wrong. Love it
Amazing how the years creep up on us all. I'm regularly surprised with artists' ages when doing these reviews. Thanks for watching!
I thought the cover looked a bit like a Rose
