Description

Following a British rock tradition initiated by the Beatles and lovingly inherited by the Jam and the Clash, Oasis is the only band of the CD era to offer fans extra tracks on their singles that are often as good as, if not better than, the hits.

The 90s were a great time for Oasis, and for their fans too. They made great albums, sold millions of them and released a string of singles with B-sides that were hardly throwaways. This collection of aforementioned B-sides really demonstrates that when they were good, they were truly outstanding. As a collection of songs from their creative peak in the 90s, this album is better than some of their weaker studio albums from the next decade, which just makes my point. Kicking off with 'Acquiesce' (B-side of 'Some Might Say), a song that features both Liam and Noel on vocals, the album is in high gear right away. The title track 'The Masterplan' (B-side of the iconic 'Wonderwall') is another highlight. It is so good that it can be included among their best songs, which just boggles my mind.

Rating : 8/10
