Noel Gallagher has been having a diss about some of the other artists who took part in that recent Sgt Pepper covers project designed to celebrate the fortieth anniversary of the legendary Beatles album. He reckons his cover, of 'Within You Without You' was just fine, but that efforts put in by Kaiser Chiefs and Razorlight were pretty poor. He says: "I was watching Kaiser Chiefs and Razorlight on the documentary and with the greatest respect to those two bands, it was embarrassing. I was embarrassed for them". To be fair to Ricky Wilson and Johnny Borrell, though, they were at a bit of a disadvantage in the whole project not having spent their whole careers ripping off the Beatles.
Oh, look at me, with the predictable and rather cheap 'Oasis just rip of the Beatles' dig. Ozzy Osbourne won't be pleased. For reasons I'm not sure of he's been commenting on everyone accusing the Gallaghers of being Beatles imitators. And here's what he says: "It's dead easy to start a forest fire in this game. You say 'Ozzy's got a false nose' and all of a sudden, everyone [says it]. Same thing with Oasis. Everybody says they rip them [The Beatles] off, but I don't think so. Everyone just kept saying it and it stuck". Whatever you say Ozzy.
