33 1/3: Oasis' Definitely Maybe

I enjoyed Alex Niven's take on Oasis' 33 1/3: Definitely Maybe (2014). The book was divided into four sections: 1. Earth 2. Water 3. Fire, and 4. Air. Within each section was a detailed description of the tracks and how they were recorded. I liked how Niven gave the musical context from which the music was made as well as the sociopolitical context of place and time-i.e. Thatcher-ite blokes on the dole from Manchester in the early 90s. Niven also gave context of the band's first two releases and how they differed from the subsequent albums, of which he states only a half dozen songs are worthy of mention-a sentiment that I wholeheartedly agree with. Another informative and entertaining look at a seminal rock album from Continuum.
