Title: Liam Gallagher interviewed by Taylor Hawkins, GNR mentions Post by: DeN on October 22, 2017, 08:12:09 PM (http://www.magnetmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/LiamGallagher1.jpg) Hawkins: OK, this is a funny question, Liam, and this is from me to you, and you can say whatever you want. But this is a fun question, and it?s a question only I would ask you. My favorite band of all time, probably if I had to pick one, is the Beatles because they?re just like the Bible to me, you know what I mean? That?s the beginning, you know. That?s everything that came after. Anyway: Do you like Queen? Gallagher: Do I like Queen? Uh, not really, no. I mean, I get Freddie Mercury has a great voice and all that, and obviously they?ve got some great songs. But I do find them a bit Queen-y. [Hawkins laughs] Listen, they?re a top band and obviously they?ve got great songs, but I dunno, man. Brian May?s guitar sound sounds like he?s got it clogged in his ass. Hawkins: Poor Brian. I love Brian. Gallagher: I respect him and all that, but I don?t know, man. Hawkins: OK, that?s funny. That?s a good one. I like that. OK, next question. What about American bands? What American bands from the ?70s, ?80s, ?90s? Gallagher: Guns N? Roses. I do like, is it Creedence Clearwater Revival? I like them. He?s got a good voice, that John Fogerty. Hawkins: Oh fuck, dude, we played with him. He?s fucking loud?he?s like you. He?s just fucking loud. Gallagher: He?s got a good voice. And obviously Hendrix and all that. Hawkins: What about when all the ?90s shit was going on, and you guys were getting ready to fight your war over there? Gallagher: I did like Nirvana, and I liked some of the tunes. Who else was out at the time? I wasn?t a big fan of Pearl Jam. Hawkins: Right. Gallagher: All the grunge stuff was a bit different for me, I?ll be honest with you. There?s a few bands. Hawkins: Few songs here and there. Gallagher: I was kind of caught up in all the old stuff. I was kind of into the Monkees and all that when all that stuff was going down. Hawkins: Well, it?s like you guys were kind of having your same sort of thing like what was happening in Seattle, in a way. English version. Gallagher: Exactly. And I like Guns N? Roses. They?ve got some tunes. Hawkins: Yeah, they do. And they?re powerful, and they still sound good on the radio today, you know? When you hear fucking ?Welcome To The Jungle? or fucking ?Sweet Child O? Mine,? it?s a classic fucking song. When Oasis came out and all these other bands came out at the same time, and the critics they love to use this kind of a word to describe one genre, but there?s nothin? like it. http://www.magnetmagazine.com/2017/10/09/exclusive-cover-story-excerpt-liam-gallagher-interviewed-by-foo-fighter-taylor-hawkins/ Title: Re: Liam Gallagher interviewed by Taylor Hawkins, GNR mentions Post by: chriskon72 on October 23, 2017, 01:00:24 PM Just an FYI
