The recording
Recorded during the sessions for 'Definitely Maybe' at Clear Studios, Manchester. Produced by Owen Morris and Mark Coyle, the track captured a raw, massive sound through a combination of close-miked amps and significant studio compression during mixing. Noel Gallagher overdubbed his own lead parts over the base rhythm section (drums, bass, and rhythm guitar) to achieve the layering heard on the final master.
