to ignite the explosion which became OASIS.The band went from obscurity to become a global phenomenon in the space of
a year,achieving worldwide recognition and
selling over 70 million records.
Pre OASIS drummer Tony McCarroll joined a
band called The Rain,linking up with guitarist Paul 'Bonehead' Arthurs,bassist Paul McGuigan and singer Chris Hutton.
Hutton was later replaced by Liam Gallagher who in turn brought brother Noel
along.What started out as five young lads with a common dream of becoming rock stars
eventually disintegrated into in-fighting,
clashes of egos and financial disputes.In 1995,following the release of Definitely Maybe - the fastest-selling debut album of
all time - things came to a head and Tony left the band.
In this candid and hilarious book,Tony tells one of the most in-depth rock 'n' roll stories of modern times.He reveals the truth about the early years before the
band was even formed; he tells of the drinking and drug consumption.Plus,he talks of his much-publicised rift with Noel Gallagher.Tony's recollections include stories involving David Beckham,
Prince,Eric Cantona and John McEnroe.
This is not the distorted truth that some
may want you to believe - this is the real
story.Witty,revealing and fascinating,this
book is a must-read for any worthwhile music fan.
Tony McCarroll currently lives between Ireland and Manchester.He still drums regularly and also teaches at his own drum
clinic. Since April 2013,and again in March 2015,
