As part of the 25th anniversary celebrations for Oasis’ landmark second studio album '(What's The Story) Morning Glory?', an exclusive new interview with Noel Gallagher will stream on YouTube this week.
Return To Rockfield will see Noel Gallagher revisit Oasis’ '(What's The Story) Morning Glory?' recording sessions at the fabled Rockfield Studios in Monmouthshire, Wales.
Liam Gallagher and Paul ‘Bonehead’ Arthurs previously contributed to the BBC documentary Rockfield: The Studio on the Farm, but this new interview will see Noel share his thoughts on those recording sessions a quarter of a century ago.
Return To Rockfield will stream on YouTube at 7pm on Thursday 1st October 2020.
A plot synopsis reads: “In 'Return To Rockfield', Noel Gallagher returns to the legendary Rockfield Studios in Wales for the first time since the band recorded the album, looking back at his memories and reflecting on the album’s legacy. The interview is available on the eve of the album’s 25th anniversary.”
