Complete set of handwritten lyrics by Noel Gallagher for Be Here Now, the lauded third studio album from English rock band Oasis. The lyrics are penned in ink and pencil on 13 off-white sheets, each approximately 8.25 x 11.75, and include the following song titles: ‘D'You Know What I Mean?,’ ‘My Big Mouth,’ ‘Magic Pie,’ ‘Stand by Me,’ ‘I Hope, I Think, I Know,’ ‘The Girl in the Dirty Shirt,’ ‘Fade In-Out,’ ‘Don't Go Away,’ ‘Be Here Now,’ ‘All Around the World,’ and ‘It's Gettin' Better (Man!!).’ Also included are Gallagher’s handwritten lyrics for the songs ‘Stay Young’ and ‘Going Nowhere,’ both of which are featured on the ‘B-Sides and Demos’ disc for the album’s 2016 reissue as part of their Chasing the Sun promotional campaign. In overall very good to fine condition, with heavy creasing to 'Going Nowhere,' and light creasing to some others.
Released on August 21, 1997 by Creation Records, Be Here Now was highly anticipated in the wake of Oasis’s first two landmark albums, Definitely Maybe and (What's the Story) Morning Glory? Preceded by the lead single ‘D'You Know What I Mean?,’ Be Here Now became an instant commercial success, selling faster than its two predecessors and consequently becoming the fastest-selling album in British chart history.
