Noel Gallagher On Elvis Presley's 'Blue Moon'

From Elvis Presley and the Sex Pistols to Derrick May and Herb Alpert, Noel Gallagher has told the current issue of Mojo (on sale now) the tracks that shaped his life.

"If you are in any doubt as to what a great singer Elvis was before the berks took over, just listen to him go flasetto on this. It's f**king aching! My dad was a DJ so we would hear this kind of thing around the house when we were growing up. He played in Irish social clubs, country and western and all that shit. I play Blue moon on guitar a lot, but the sound of it just grips me. The funny thing is, all the rock 'n' roll geniuses went in show business if they didn't die, so they were doing films and adverts and all that. They did sell out a little bit."
