NMAS are cool. Luther is an awesome slide player! I'm sad though that my I'm finding it hard to follow Gov't Mule anymore

I second that! Merge is an awesome record company -

On the roster: Richard Buckner, Lambchop, Lou Barlow, Superchunk, and the early Dinosaur Jr Re-issues... among many others! I was delightfully surprised to find Jon Wurster of Superchunk getting much of the drumming credits on Terrior Blues.

Oasis
Heavy Stereo
Hurricane # 1
Ride
3 Colours Red
Kevin Rowland
Revolving Pain Dream

Remember them!!??

But they did have Sugar's Copper Blue,Super Furry Animals and Primals Exterminator.

Yeah, Alan McGee was a bit hit-and-miss in his signings! Xtrmntr was awesome, as were Vanishing Point and Screamadelica. Oasis' fist album was quite good, I thought- Live Forever was a great song. Things went downhill drastically soon after though...

Creation Records were pretty cool for a while.
