Like a particularly unadventurous goods train, Liam Gallagher has spent his career moving back and forth along the same track. In the ongoing absence of the Oasis reunion that he still calls for regularly, he has returned to the Knebworth stage of the band’s pinnacle for solo shows, and this summer will play their debut album, Definitely Maybe, over four nights at the O2 Arena.
By hooking up with Stone Roses guitarist John Squire, he resurrects a number of key moments in his music life. Gallagher was 16 when he saw the Roses play live in Manchester, which inspired him to form a band.
