NOEL GALLAGHER is taking a builder to court over what he reckons is a Blunderwall.

The Oasis star wants £54,349 – and 5p – from firm Sheldon Andrews, who he is claiming messed up renovations at his £2.5million mansion.

Part of the complaint is believed to involve work on internal walls.
A pal of the star told me: “Noel may have millions but he’s not a mug. He’s not going to let someone come along and get the better of him. He’s very canny with money and £50,000 is a lot of cash. He is pretty confident he can win and has got a good team of lawyers.”

Noel decided to have the house refurbished after ex-wife MEG MATHEWS left four years ago. She stripped the six-bedroom home of most of its furnishings after their bitter split. Noel later moved out temporarily too, buying himself a mews home in London’s Marylebone while the refurb was carried out. He is desperate to move back into his pad near Chalfont St Giles, Bucks, with PR girlfriend SARA MACDONALD. But he may have been tempted – in the words of his famous song – to look back in anger at some of the building work. Noel sold his famous North London pad, Supernova Heights, in 1998 and moved to the country to get away from the capital’s rock’n'roll lifestyle and build a family life with Meg. They had married the year before.

The legal action is due to be heard by His Honour Judge Richard Seymour at the Technology and Construction Court in London. No one from Sheldon Andrews was available for comment last night.

Oasis have beaten their heroes the Beatles to the title of Best British Album Ever.

Their 10-year-old creation, Definitely Maybe, has topped a staff poll of 50 best albums by Q magazine.

Second on the list is the Fab Four?s Revolver, released in 1966, almost 30 years before the Oasis debut.

The poll comes after the Mancunian band, who have always looked to the Beatles for inspiration, signed Zak Starkey, the son of former Beatle Ringo Starr as their latest drummer.

The Gallagher brothers experienced supersonic success after they were discovered, with Definitely Maybe becoming the fastest-selling album of all time.

The band also beat heavyweights such as the Rolling Stones, David Bowie, and Pink Floyd in the survey of the music magazine’s staff.

The Rolling Stones’ Beggars Banquet comes seventh, The Smiths’ The Queen is Dead eighth, Led Zeppelin’s Led Zeppelin III came ninth, and Massive Attack’s Blue Lines 10th.

The Sex Pistols’ Never Mind The Bollocks – Here’s the Sex Pistols comes third on the list, followed by Radiohead’s OK Computer.

The poll is featured in the July issue of Q which is out on June 1.

LOOK out – OASIS singer LIAM GALLAGHER is on the warpath – or is that the wrong path?

The furious frontman called broadcaster Sky to complain about an ad for new show Pornotopia on music channel The Amp.
In the one-page promo he and brother NOEL are mocked up as porn stars.

The star, famed for his quick temper – and inability to fight his way out of a paper bag – ranted about how he had not agreed to let his picture be used.
Liam, love, get your eyes tested because it’s not you. It’s a lookalike.

A sense of humour check may be a good idea, too.

Liam und Noel

Ringo Starrs Sohn wird nicht bleiben

Laut WENN will Zak Starkey, der Sohn von Beatles-Trommler Ringo Starr, kein dauerhaftes Mitglied bei Oasis werden – weil er lieber bei den Altrockern The Who bleibt. Starkey, der die Gallagher-Brüder beim Oasis-Gig auf dem Glastonbury Festival im Juni begleiten wird, hat angekündigt, sich weiterhin für die “My Generation”-Band hinters Schlagzeug zu setzen und bei Oasis nur gelegentlich auszuhelfen.

Ein Insider: “Zak organisiert lediglich die Oasis-Sachen um seine Termine mit The Who herum, die ja auch schon bestätigt sind. Er will The Who einfach nicht im Stich lassen.” Die Nachricht könnte für Oasis-Kopf Noel Gallagher, dessen Idols Zaks Vater ist, als Schock kommen – hatte er doch gehofft, Starkey könnte dauerhaft bei Oasis bleiben. Kürzlich scherzte Gallagher: “Wenn er uns ein Autogramm seines Vaters besorgen kann, ist er dabei.”

Die Coverversion des Oasis-Hits “Wonderwall” von Singer/Songwriter Ryan Adams wird am 28. Juni als Single erscheinen.
Sogar Noel Gallgher zeigte sich beeindruckt von der Version:

“I went to see Ryan Adams in Manchester. So he’s playing away and he just does ‘Wonderwall’ right in the middle of the set. The fu**ing place went silent. It was so beautiful. I was just like, ‘Fu**ing Jesus Christ what a fu**ing song!’ Afterwards, I told him, ‘You can have that song, man, because we could never quite get it right.’”

OASIS are secretly working on a huge DVD project to celebrate the tenth anniversary of their first album’s release.

The DVD will be released in September – exactly ten years after Definitely Maybe’s debut.

NOEL and LIAM GALLAGHER are spending a lot of time in Manchester to supervise work on the disc, which has new interviews with the band, friends and key figures.

There will be also be previously unseen live footage and loads of out-takes from the early Oasis studio sessions.

The way recording of their new album is going – slowly – I’m beginning to wonder if the DVD will be their only new release this year.

At least their Glastonbury headline slot will keep their fans happy – for now.

NOEL GALLAGHER and IAN BROWN have collaborated on a track for the former STONE ROSES vocalist’s new album.

According to The Sun newspaper, the pair met by chance at the Electric Cinema in London’s Notting Hill.

“We got talking about music and agreed we should do something,” explained Brown .

He added: “Noel sent me some music he’d done and I recorded a vocal. The result is brilliant, I’m really excited. I hope it will be a single.”

The news comes after denials from the Oasis camp that Liam was to form a supergroup with ex-Roses guitarist John Squire. As previously reported on NME.COM, the band claim the story was “dreamed up” by editorial staff at The Sun.

Oasis are currently working in the studio on the follow-up to “Heathen Chemistry”, which is due for release later this year.

Brown’s new album is expected in August or September.
