Editorial Review: Amazon.co.uk Review: It's often the way of rock & roll--the accidental stuff you don't sweat over often turns out to be better than the supposedly generation-defining monolith you rupture your life to expel. So it was with Oasis and their third album, Be Here Now--soaked with sweat, it left Noel and Liam purple-faced with effort and stank like old egg sandwiches in a sock. Meanwhile The Masterplan--b-sides and live tracks--came out a year later and effortlessly reminded everyone why they'd liked the hairy brothers in the first place. "Acquiesce"--don't worry, they admitted they didn't know what the word meant, they just liked the sound of it--was the greatest single they never released: a huge, affirmative sibling bellow-fest that makes "D'You Know What I Mean?" sound like a polite old grandma coughing in comparison. The mournful "Rockin' Chair"--another "lost" Oasis classic, makes it onto here, along with a truly execrable live version of the Beatles' "I Am The Walrus", which actually sounds like they got a walrus to sing it, but no matter. The magic, so latterly absent in Oasis's career, is here in spades. --Caitlin Moran Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - One of the best Oasis albums,oddlyThe Masterplan is a B-Sides compilation full of great songs.There is an argument,in fact, for saying this is one of the very best Oasis albums. Certainly one of the most consistent. I think it's fair to say that it's time for another one-containing D'Yer Wanna Be A Spaceman,Round Are Way,Carry Us All,Cigarettes In Hell,Let's All Make Believe,etc... Rating: - Oasis' best ever album, why certainlyTunes man this is the best oasis album follwed closely by Definatly maybe. people jam on 'bout whats the story but really listen to this. aquiese-10/10 tune. rock n roll at is most fun underneath the sky-10/10 sing alog song. hit hit hit talk tonight-9/10 great acoustic track, but maybe a bit too subtle and noel isnt as goo a singer going nowhere- 9/10 very enjoyable but once again noels a letdown with the vocals Fade away-10/10 bish bosh bash, this song is well futile the swamp song-7/10 little dissapointing, worst on the album i reckon, could have left it off I am the walrus-9/10 excellent cover, does the orginal justice Read More: Rating: - The MasterplanWell from track 1-14 pure quality music, it just shows you if these are Oasis' b-sides what must there studio albums be like! (Amazing everyone of them) Well top tracks are Track 1 (cant spell it) , Talk Tonight , Fade Away , Rockin Chair , Half The World Away , (Its Good) To Be Free , Stay Young and THE MASTERPLAN. You all probaly have this CD but there some people who dont and i urge you to get it you wont regert it! Rating: - Why Oasis Were Better Than BlurOn one level, the Masterplan makes me sad - it is a signal to what Oasis could have been. All the jibes about lacking progression and never doing anything different can be put to bed by the songs on this record; what you find here is Noel Gallagher's superb songwriting at its best. If all the songs here (and the B-sides that didn't make the grade or followed) had been included on albums, Oasis could have topped up all their more recent releases to the quality of their earliest ones. On all other levels, it makes me delighted - the songs, from rip-roaring should-have-been-a-single Acquiesce, to the epic should-have-been-a-double-A-side-with-Wonderwall-because-it's-just-as-good The Masterplan, the album is a joy to listen to. ... Read More: Rating: - Their best?Aside from the obvious "Definitely Maybe" and "What's the Story? (Morning Glory)" I think this is the only other essential Oasis CD. There are some great tunes on here that really should have been used to make an album that could have been as good as the first two. An obvious omission is "Whatever", but "Aquiesce", "Fade Away" and "The Masterplan" are as good songs as Oasis have ever (and probably will) do. Essential Brit-Pop. |
