    Oops, you are absolutly right. I go so carried away with thinking about first tracks that the debut bit passed me by.  No wonder I thought there were so many of them.

    In the fist 20 seconds he manages to get in drum, piano and guitar riffs each of which might ordinarily appear as an entity smack in the middle of a song

    A truly defining mission statement for what Oasis were all about back then
