Noel Gallagher Wants Liam To Record His Own Solo Album

Noel Gallagher is hoping his brother Liam will record a solo album, as the guitarist plans to write his own once the band end their current tour.

The Oasis chief already has some songs in mind for his debut offshoot release, as he explains to Radio 1's Colin Murray: "I don't specifically put songs aside. There are songs that have just fallen by the wayside that are still great but have missed their moment."

"Like 'Stop The Clocks' for instance. That needs to come out soon. At the end of this tour, I'd like everyone to do something separately. I think it would be interesting for our fans."

Noel then added that little brother Liam should also work on his own project: "Liam's always the first person to start rushing things. I think if he wants to get back in the saddle that quick, he should do it for himself. He's got tonnes and tonnes of songs."
