Would love Liam singing All for One. What a great song that was.

Iโd be more than happy with Liamโs White Album to be honest ๐ Do I want to hear a 50 year old Liam doing punk rock? Would it be any good? Iโm not so sure. I do. Personally I prefer the Oasis side which veers more towards sex pistols horizons rather than Beatles. The Beatles made me tired. When Oasis or the Gallaghers in general play at being the Beatles I get bored. I agree, I get the melodic inspiration on their more poppy songs like Whatever, which I think is fantastic. But when they increasingly sonically mimicked The Beatles with every opportunity, which seemed ever more prevalent further into their career, it became so tiresome and the unfavourable comparisons were justified. Beady Eye took it the extremes which is why I despise their records. And I talk as a hardcore Beatles fan - I've got everything they've done, we've got the real thing, I don't need some musical equivalent of Tesco budget own brand shite. Now your punkier stuff, with a bit of an edge to it is where its at. Wall Of Glass, Everything's Electric... yeah sure they're fairly mainstream so not punk by any stretch but it has that venomous streak to it. When Liam's spitting out the words at a quick rate, there's no better sound in music. That quick fire edge. Add to the Oasis classics like Headshrinker, Bring It On Down, Shock of the Lightning... then you've got a list of absolute belters. At 51 years old, Liam isn't too old for punk rock. He ain't some refined rocker trying to get a bit of edge, he's always had it and never lost it. I think it's a shame its never been utilised that much in his music. It worries me he's working with John Squire though. A has been who hasn't written anything remotely good in over three decades. Most of his work is a parody of rock music and that's an easy trap for Liam to fall into.

There's Johnny, at the baseball with Greg Kurstin... Interestingโฆ.given Johnโs musical inactivity in recent years, i doubt he and Kurstin would be seen together if they werent both working with Liam. I get peoplesโ concern about John not having been all that productive the last 25 years, but i guess time will tell.

My 2 cents: it'll be the first album of the supergroup with John Squire he announced months ago

I wonder if there will be any other notable musicians involved? If it's just John Squire as an additional collaborator, it should still be called a Liam solo album. At least that would be much smarter marketing-wise

Hope so, I was quite excited about the prospect when he tweeted about it. Most seemed to think it was just talking bollcks and would never happen.
If true, wonder who else is involved. Bonehead you would think is likely.

Some questions here: - Just Liam&John collaboration album? - A new supergroup with Liam&John involved? - Greg Kurstin on production? - Still some Kurstin-Wyatt songs with John playing guitar?
Probably some news soon

I sure hope that it's not that supergroup and how do we know that John Squire has actually written any songs we don't for sure. He might just have played on some tracks.

Squire and Liam "wrote" together Love Me and Leave Me. It was a good song.
So why not ? It would be better than someone completely chosen by the label. At least some authenticity to it if they collaborate for real.
+ Liam voice and Squire guitar playing... hyped to hear that.

So I wouldn't expect that to happen.

Clearly it's not a liam Solo Album. It's a collaborative effort with Squire and whomever else

i don't think John Squire's name adds one record sale onto Liam's name.

It won't sell more with Squire involved. If he's co-writing, you can guarantee his songs will be far inferior to Kurstin and Wyatts, signalling commercial suicide for Liam.

In my opinion Squire only recorded some guitar parts for Liam. Nothing else

I don't think Squire is the sort to be a gun for hire. I think there is no doubt he's has been writing for sometime and quite possibly with Liam given Liam appears to be have been in and out of the studio for months now. Saying that, I'm not sure how keen Kurstin would be to put his name to an abomination.
