With the swaggering chords of the opening "Rock'N'Roll Star," Oasis announced that big, brash Brit rock was here to stay--at least for a few years. They wore their rock & roll with an angry young sneer, a Mancunian petulance wedded to a vision of cathartic release. Their supersonic two-guitar attack took them "Up in the Sky," where they would "Live Forever" or burn out in a blaze of alcoholic glory. Noel Gallagher's songs weren't subtle--or shy of overt plagiarism--but, spat out in the Lennonesque snarl of little brother Liam, they took on a venomous power that had millions of young Brits taking them at their own arrogant word. In the U.S., meanwhile, the response was more Maybe than Definitely. --Barney Hoskyns

5 out of 5 stars A rock 'n roll masterpiece.......2007-03-30

In the history of rock n' roll*, there probably aren't 20 better albums than Definitely Maybe. Oasis, under pressure to throw together enough material for a full album after signing with Creation Records on the strength of a handful of songs, accidentally made one of the best albums ever. It's not hyperbole to say that every song on this album is damned good, if not great.

Oasis has always been accused of being derivative, and there's alot of evidence of that on Definitely Maybe. "Cigarettes and Alcohol" is T-Rex's "Bang A Gong (Get it On)" retooled. The chorus of "Shakermaker" is lifted directly from the Coca-Cola song, "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing." Yet, the album is fresh. Liam Gallagher's vocals are fantastic; he's a one-of-a-kind singer. The guitars are big and loud. Swagger just drips from every song. Whatever their sources of inspiration, the Gallaghers have always put their own stamp on their songs, made their own sounds. Paradoxically derivative and unique, Definitely Maybe was so groundbreaking that bands have been trying for the last decade to capture its sound, its magic. There's a lot of Definitely in both of Jet's albums, for example.

This is a must-have album for any rock fan. Like Revolver, Kick (INXS), Joshua Tree, and Achtung Baby (just a few examples off-the-cuff), Definitely Maybe captured the spirit of the time in which it was released and sent rock in a different direction. What "She Loves You" and "I Want to Hold Your Hand" were to the British Invasion, the Definitely Maybe album was to the "Brit Pop" movement.

If you're a rock n' roll fan and this album hasn't found its way into your collection, you've really been missing out. Order it today. If I could give it 10 stars, I would!


*By "rock 'n roll" I mean straigh-forward, guitar-driven music. I don't mean to include soul, R & B, hip-hop, "soft rock" or other styles that sometimes get lumped in the "rock 'n roll" category.

5 out of 5 stars One of the best albums of all time.......2007-03-09

If you're gonna buy an Oasis record or any for that matter, this is a great one to get. Every song is catchy as hell. Just great pop rock songs. Noel Gallagher is one of the best songwriters ever. Liam's voice is awesome the whole way through, and you'll find you can't get the songs out of your head. Slide Away is the song that grabbed my attention and made me want to purchase this album and become a bigger fan. What you'll find is all their songs are good, and you'll wonder what you've been missing. All their albums are good.

5 out of 5 stars One of the best rock n roll albums of the 90's!.......2007-02-17

Straight outta Manchester, England comes a breath of fresh air in Oasis. These guys pour their heart & sould into all their records, and Definitely Maybe stands out against the rest.

Most people crown Morning Glory as the best Oasis album, but I gotta tell you, that they are wrong. Up in the Sky is the only track that I skip over, and this song would be a chart topper for other wanna be bands!

The highlights on this album are Columbia & Supersonic and they happen to follow one another (track #5 & #6 respectively) on a solid debute album. It's fitting that they lead off with Rock N' Roll Star. It's like the Gallagher brother's knew they would hit stardom! Shakermaker is a great 2nd track as it highlights their musical range!

If you like Definitely Maybe, & I know you will, Be Here Now, Morning Glory, & the Masterplan are all excellent Oasis discs to add to your collection!

5 out of 5 stars Definitely Glad to have bought.......2007-01-10

I found this CD by browsing Amazon and decided to give it a try. I am happy with all of the tracks. Some tracks remind me of Beatles a little, but not all, so the band does have a unique sound. Even though from the 90s, the sound is like many bands making it today. I like it.t

5 out of 5 stars fantastic.......2006-10-18

i prefer this record over the stone roses debut which everyone thinks is the best british record ever. this still sounds fresh unlike the dated roses album. this is a great record and definitely oasis' best. better than morning glory btw. morning glory has the trinity of champagne supernova, don't look back in anger and wonderwall, but this DM has live forever and everything else on the album. the harder rockin oasis will always be better and this album deserves all the love it gets.

        Just the best cd of the 20th century! Every rock lover MUST buy this cd!

        5 out of 5 stars The extra tracks are worth it!.......1999-07-15

        The Japanese version has the extra tracks "Cloudburst" and "Sad Song", and while it is relatively easy to find "Cloudburst" on a couple of their british single releases, "Sad Song" only exists on the vinyl version of "Definitely Maybe" and the Japanese single "Don't Go Away". "Sad Song" is a simple yet wonderful song. If you're a new Oasis fan, pay the extra money and go for the Japanese "Definitely Maybe" album. It's worth it.

        5 out of 5 stars Best of the 90's.......1999-07-07

        Unfortunately for Americans, the only songs the radio would play on this album in the States were Supersonic and Live Forever. This is definitely at least as good as Morning Glory, and probably one of the most influential records of the 90's. Sad Song and Cloudburst are extras, and worth it if youre a collector.

        5 out of 5 stars The first Oasis release, and probably the best!!.......1998-12-04

        Noel Gallagher has put together the ultimate, English demonstration of rock 'n roll. This album, from start to finish, is an absolute delight. From the hard-hitting Supersonic, to the harmonious Slide Away, I know that this is an album of the finest quality. If you do not own this release and you like great music, then there is some urgency for you to purchase it.

What "She Loves You" and "I Want to Hold Your Hand" were to the British Invasion, the Definitely Maybe album was to the "Brit Pop" movement.

          If you're a rock n' roll fan and this album hasn't found its way into your collection, you've really been missing out. Order it today. If I could give it 10 stars, I would!


          *By "rock 'n roll" I mean straigh-forward, guitar-driven music. I don't mean to include soul, R & B, hip-hop, "soft rock" or other styles that sometimes get lumped in the "rock 'n roll" category.

          5 out of 5 stars One of the best albums of all time.......2007-03-09

          If you're gonna buy an Oasis record or any for that matter, this is a great one to get. Every song is catchy as hell. Just great pop rock songs. Noel Gallagher is one of the best songwriters ever. Liam's voice is awesome the whole way through, and you'll find you can't get the songs out of your head. Slide Away is the song that grabbed my attention and made me want to purchase this album and become a bigger fan. What you'll find is all their songs are good, and you'll wonder what you've been missing. All their albums are good.

          5 out of 5 stars One of the best rock n roll albums of the 90's!.......2007-02-17

          Straight outta Manchester, England comes a breath of fresh air in Oasis. These guys pour their heart & sould into all their records, and Definitely Maybe stands out against the rest.

          Most people crown Morning Glory as the best Oasis album, but I gotta tell you, that they are wrong. Up in the Sky is the only track that I skip over, and this song would be a chart topper for other wanna be bands!

          The highlights on this album are Columbia & Supersonic and they happen to follow one another (track #5 & #6 respectively) on a solid debute album. It's fitting that they lead off with Rock N' Roll Star. It's like the Gallagher brother's knew they would hit stardom! Shakermaker is a great 2nd track as it highlights their musical range!

          If you like Definitely Maybe, & I know you will, Be Here Now, Morning Glory, & the Masterplan are all excellent Oasis discs to add to your collection!

          5 out of 5 stars Definitely Glad to have bought.......2007-01-10

          I found this CD by browsing Amazon and decided to give it a try. I am happy with all of the tracks. Some tracks remind me of Beatles a little, but not all, so the band does have a unique sound. Even though from the 90s, the sound is like many bands making it today. I like it.t

          5 out of 5 stars fantastic.......2006-10-18

          i prefer this record over the stone roses debut which everyone thinks is the best british record ever. this still sounds fresh unlike the dated roses album. this is a great record and definitely oasis' best. better than morning glory btw. morning glory has the trinity of champagne supernova, don't look back in anger and wonderwall, but this DM has live forever and everything else on the album. the harder rockin oasis will always be better and this album deserves all the love it gets.

          5 out of 5 stars Cigarettes 'n' Oasis.......2005-02-18


          This is a beautiful piece of promo for Oasis's first album Definitely Maybe (1994), one of the albums that made the 90's (at least in Europe)what they were: a refreshing period that proved that rock'n'roll was not dead.

          The set is presented in a box of silver Benson & Hedges, the Gallagher brothers' favorite brand of cigarettes. This item is a collection of the singles released from the first album : Cigarettes 'n' alcohol, Supersonic, Live Forever, Rock'n'Roll Star plus a bonus CD featuring a collection of interviews given by the band throughout the world.
          For any hardcore fan this is a real collector and a nice object as well.

          The singles feature a bunch of great B-sides, and A-side lives. It is faithfull to the Oasis tradition that the B-sides (at least for the first 3 albums) were as good, and sometimes even better, than the A-sides they accompanied so don't hesitate, this is real good britpop and a nice trip down memory lane.

          This collector was released alongside with another one, the collection of singles from (What's the story)Morning Glory? their hit album of 1995. This set is in a golden B&H pack and features a CD of interviews as well, nevertheless don't get too excited about it because the itw are the same in both the sets. The B-sides from Morning Glory? are even better than the ones for Definitely Maybe (at least it's my opinion). The singles are : Don't look back in anger, Wonderwall, Roll with it and Champagne Supernova. Great singles if ever there were any !

          note for the Oasis part time fans: the most wonderfull single Whatever does not feature on any album, and although released at Christmas 1994 between DM and Morning Glory?, is not part of any of these sets.
