Oasis

In 1996, Oasis was riding high on the success of their critically acclaimed albums "Definitely Maybe" (1994) and "(What's the Story) Morning Glory?" (1995). The live recording at Maine Road on April 28, 1996, took place during a pivotal moment in their career, as they were starting to solidify their status as one of the leading bands of the Britpop movement. This concert was significant not only for its sheer size—performed in front of a packed crowd at Manchester City's home ground—but also for the energetic setlist featuring hits like "Supersonic," "Some Might Say," and "Champagne Supernova," all of which showcased their musical prowess and Gallagher brothers' charisma. Interestingly, this performance highlighted the band's growing appeal and fanbase, evidenced by their ability to fill such a large venue. The live recordings also captured the band's raw energy just before they would soon embark on an international tour that would further elevate their global stature.
