#17 | Liam Gallagher | Why Me? Why Not.
Warner

According to Justin Chadwick: “We recently celebrated the 25-year milestone of Oasis’ landmark debut album Definitely Maybe (1994), which signaled the formal arrival of a distinctive, powerful, once-in-a-generation voice in British music. Two-and-a-half decades on from that paradigm-shifting event, Liam’s inimitable charisma still inspires, still consumes, and the winsome Why Me? Why Not. is unmistakable evidence of this fact….Whereas others with similar, bona fide rock legend credentials have proven vulnerable to the inevitable mid-life creative crisis, Liam Gallagher is transforming his music into refreshing middle-aged catharsis and an inspired artistic reaffirmation that sounds primed to continue unabated.”
