Oasis on The Smiths and onstage, recording with an ex-Smith

On Sunday night an interview with Noel and Liam Gallagher was broadcast on UK PPV channel Sky Box Office, prior to the airing of their Glasgow Barrowlands gig from the previous evening.

Johnny Marr and The Smiths got a few mentions with Noel saying how he had wanted to be in a band with the power of The Jam and the grace of The Smiths. Surprisingly, Liam also said he was a bit partial to "The Smiffs". Incidently, Andy Bell the Oasis bassist (formerly of Ride) mentioned in a recent interview that after seeing The Smiths in his home town of Oxford in '86 he knew he wanted to be in a band.

Johnny Marr joined Oasis on stage at Glasgow for an excellent version of 'Champagne Supernova', which was the highlight of an otherwise drab affair, and the Beatles cover 'I Am The Walrus'.

WELL LIAM, IT WAS REALLY SOMETHING - Has Johnny Marr recorded an entire Liam Gallagher album? Nine or ten "incredible" songs have been recorded, apparently...
