He penned the words in the band’s final official tour programme and was en route to review their last UK show when it was cancelled. He co-authored Any Road Will Get Us There (If We Don’t Know Where We’re Going) with Noel Gallagher in 2018, and his sleevenotes for the Be Here Now reissue were featured in the Chasing the Sun: 1993–1997 Oasis exhibition.Ted KesslerKessler was on staff at NME from 1993 to 2003 before joining Q magazine, where he worked for sixteen years, including four as editor. He first interviewed Oasis in 1994 around their debut single Supersonic, and his final interview with the band was in Amsterdam in 2009, just before their split. Since then, he’s written five Liam Gallagher cover interviews and remains one of the most trusted voices on the band’s legacy.The Long Play SessionsThis event forms part of The Long Play Sessions, a curated series hosted by ICMP celebrating some of the most influential voices writing about music today.
