LG1 Player study 3 - Noel Gallagher

For many people, Oasis songs and Noel Gallagher solos were the first thing they learned on guitar. In the 1990s, Oasis were among the most influential band since the Beatles and the Stones.

In this video, we look at the core licks, concepts and techniques that will enable you to play pretty much any Oasis solo. Some are simple, some are more challenging - but they're all worth learning if you want to learn lead guitar!

Key playing points;

  • Simple but effective lead parts that brilliantly compliment the song
  • Great examples of melodic major and minor pentatonic solos
  • Subtle lead guitar parts in verses, choruses or as short musical breaks
  • See also Stone Roses, The Smiths and Paul Weller
