A live album of Oasis' two era-defining 1996 concerts at Knebworth Park is finally going to be released.
As part of the Britpop band's 25th anniversary celebrations of their 1996 gigs at Knebworth, the shows will be released on CD, vinyl and DVD for the first time.
Released alongside the celebratory feature-length documentary film, in cinemas from Thursday, September 23, the Oasis Knebworth 1996 album is the definitive live recording of the iconic Hertfordshire gigs.
Recorded 25 years ago on August 10 and August 11, with the group on a high after the success of (What's the Story) Morning Glory?, the live album features a setlist packed with stone-cold classics taken from across both nights of the Knebworth concerts.
Released on November 19, 2021 on Big Brother Recordings, and available to pre-order now, the album opens with Columbia from debut album Definitely Maybe followed by Acquiesce.
Liam Gallagher and brother Noel Gallagher also perform tracks such as Some Might Say, Roll With It, Cigarettes & Alcohol, Whatever, Wonderwall – the first song from the 1990s to reach over one billion streams on Spotify – and Don't Look Back In Anger.
Oasis' 20-track set finishes with Live Forever, Champagne Supernova and an orchestra backed I Am The Walrus.
Formats available include 2CD, and triple LP on heavyweight vinyl with the digital version of the album featuring HD audio.
