Re: Battle of the Bands Qtr Final - Oasis v R.E.M. page 180
Oasis
Oasis
Music evolved heavily during the years of The Beatles/The Sixties. Blatantly stealing riffs from old record collections in the late 20th Century is totally different from rock n roll songs of the late fifties/early sixties sounding alike.citykev28 said:Banned Tosspot said:It sounds a bit like it but the problem is that a lot of rock n roll sounded similar in those days. The Beatles grew, Oasis fizzled out after a pretty good debut.
Apart from the fact that the harmonica player taught John Lennon how to play both the instrument and that opening music. Also, if the Beatles can be excused because all rock n roll sounded the same in those days, how can you have a go at Oasis for sounding like other stuff 40 years later?
