Summary

The finest book on Britain's most popular rock 'n' roll band'Read on … It's all true' Noel Gallagher 
Featuring an exclusive interview with Noel Gallagher and bespoke artwork by celebrated Oasis album designer Brian Cannon 
Think Oasis was just Britpop and brawls? 
Think again. 
John Robb was there every step of the way. In this, the definitive book on Britain’s biggest band, he peels back the layers of Manchester’s best-known musical export, revealing a tale of ambition, ego, talent and a whole lot of attitude. From the estates of South Manchester to the dizzying heights of global stardom, Live Forever is a rollercoaster ride through the Gallagher brothers’ turbulent lives and the music that defined a generation. But it is also a portrait of Britain around the turn of the millennium and the cultural forces and places that shaped, and were shaped by, two cocksure upstarts from Burnage – from art to fashion, and from football to politics. 
Playful, funny and irreverent, and drawing on dozens of interviews and first-hand stories, this book puts Oasis squarely in the pantheon of music royalty as the last great rock ’n’ roll stars. 
This popular, non-fiction history goes beyond the music to trace the culture, styles and genres that fed Oasis’s rise, delivering pointed social criticism without losing its bite. It’s the kind of bestseller that feels like an autobiography of a generation’s swagger and noise. 
For fans of Simon Spence (All or Nothing), Legs Mcneil (I Slept With Joey Ramone), Marc Spitz (Poseur), Steven Blush (Hard-Core), and Patti Smith (Year of the Monkey).
