  • Summary

  • In this episode of Classic Rock Midday Flashback, we take you back to 1994 with a track that became a defining anthem of the Britpop era — Oasis' “Cigarettes & Alcohol.” Released as the fourth single from their debut album Definitely Maybe, this song captured the frustration of working-class life and the quest for escape.

    Join us as we dive into the raw energy and rebellious spirit of Oasis, discuss Noel Gallagher’s inspirations behind the track, and how the song’s glam rock-influenced guitar riff pays homage to T. Rex’s “Bang a Gong (Get It On).” We also explore the song’s lasting impact, its chart success, and how it helped shape Oasis' legacy as one of the most influential bands of the ‘90s.

    Tune in to relive the Britpop magic and crank up the volume with Cigarettes & Alcohol on Radio X!
