Whilst it’s unlikely to be many people’s favourite Creation album, there’s no denying Oasis’ third long-player Be Here Now was the labels most high profile release. The band are now set to reissue the album on October 7th with unreleased tracks.
The reissue will include B-sides, rare and unreleased tracks from this era, as well as Noel Gallagher’s 2016 mix of D’You Know What I Mean? which you can hear below.
“As the years went by I’d started to accept that the songs on ‘Be Here Now’ were in fact insanely long… too long! Someone (I can’t remember who) had the idea that we re-visit, re-edit the entire album for posterity’s sake. We got as far as the first track before we couldn’t be arsed any more and gave up… It does sound fucking mega though!” – Noel Gallagher
Now titled Be Here Now Chasing The Sun, the album comes as a standard CD and digital download, special Edition 3 x CD and deluxe digital download, 12″ vinyl LP with download code for two volumes of bonus content and Limited edition Super Deluxe Box Set.
