Out with the old and in with the new (generation)...


Two albums by Oasis have taken the number one and two spots in a poll to find the best British album of the last 50 years.
The Manchester band beat classics by the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd with their debut Definitely Maybe, followed by 1995's (What's The Story) Morning Glory.
The Beatles took five places in the top 50 with Revolver, Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, Rubber Soul, Abbey Road and The White Album.
Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, one of the bestselling albums of all time, was ninth.
Meanwhile, Exile on Main Street by The Rolling Stones took 48th place. Their 1969 album, Let It Bleed, also capped off the top 50.
Q's Editor Paul Rees said: "It's clear that, having polled three times more votes than any other act, Oasis are undoubtedly the nation's most-loved band."

Yo tuve la suerte de ver a los Oasis siempre que vinieron, y si sacan disco nuevo en octubre (como se rumorea), los vamos a tener de vuelta probablemente a principios del 2010. parece mucho tiempo, pero con tal que vengan, estoy dispuesta a esperar...
