How the fuck did I not know about this?

Sergeant Peppers Anniversary Covers Album.

Does anybody have any of these tracks? I would especially like to hear the Oasis one, obviously.

Gallagher said the bands taking part in the recordings and working on the original equipment had a number of challenges to face.

"Number one - you've all got to be able to play in the same room together," he said.

"I was watching Kaiser Chiefs and Razorlight on the documentary and with the greatest respect to those two bands, it was embarrassing. I was embarrassed for them."

Haha.

"Talking to BBC News about the recording, Noel Gallagher said: "Sgt. Pepper is special for me because I was born on the 29 May, and it came out on the 1 June, so when I was being born in St Mary's Hospital, Manchester, it was being played on hospital radio..... and it still contains some of the greatest Beatles songs, like A Day in the Life, and Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds."

What a douche. He should have been born a woman.

i thought all u teabags thought Oasis > The Beatles

so isn't this like paying a Quantum physicist to pick up the trash ?

What a douche. He should have been born a woman.

Cause then he wouldn't have had to pay for the surgery like you did, right?

Cool!!!
Great News. Such musical wonders as James Morrison and The Fratellis are to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Sgt Peppers Beatles album by covering songs from it. I for one cannot wait to hear this meaningful idea come to fruition. Only thing is, can anyone really better the genius of "With a little help from my friends". I know Wet, Wet,Wet came REALLY close but it'll take a mastery of music to pull this one off. Such classics as "A day in the life" will surely be so difficult to interpret due to it's subtleties and beautiful piano breakdown. I cannot wait and I doubt you can either. Yeah! Now shoot me in the face with a shotgun.

i found this amusing

What the fuck is wrong with the British? Sgt. Peppers isn't the greatest album but there's no reason to exhume its corpse to be skullholed by third tier NME wonkfests.

*giggle*

God, I can actually remember going with my Dad to see that in the theaters. I am so ashamed...

[Mr.Nipples]

you should be...

[breakjaw]

Stef,here is that Oasis track.

[Stefinitely Maybe]

Thanks! I'm disappointed, though. It sounds like they just took the backing from "Let Forever Be" (one of the songs Noel did with Chemical Brothers; which itself was a rip-off of Tomorrow Never Knows) and then pasted some half-arsed Liam vocals and 'world music sound effects' over the top. Plus, there's no discernible tune. Oh well.

[full on idle]

OH WELL STEFINITELY
