Oasis dominate UK album charts following start of world tour
At number one is the band's singles compilation, Time Flies…1994-2009, which returns to the top of the leaderboard for the first time since it was first released in June 2010.
It is followed by the group's second studio album, (What's The Story) Morning Glory?, which went on to become the fifth bestselling album in the UK of all time, according to the Official Charts Company.
While this week's number three spot remains with pop star Sabrina Carpenter for her Short N' Sweet album, Oasis claimed number four in the charts with their debut 1994 album Definitely Maybe, relegating Ed Sheeran's +–=÷× Tour Collection to number five.
Formed in Manchester in 1991, the rock band was led by lead guitarist Noel and his brother, lead vocalist Liam, during their 18 years together, until their dramatic split in 2009.
They are known for their hit songs Don't Look Back In Anger, Champagne Supernova, Wonderwall and Live Forever.
The Oasis Live '25 Tour kicked off last week in Cardiff, and a five-show run in Manchester will begin on Friday.
Throughout July, August and September, the band will visit London's Wembley Stadium, Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium and Dublin's Croke Park before heading to Japan, South Korea, South America, Australia and North America.
Meanwhile, on the singles charts, producer MK, known as Marc Kinchen, landed his first ever UK number one with Dior featuring singer-songwriter Chrystal.
He is followed by Carpenter, with her most recent single, Manchild, climbing up the ranks to number two following her two sold-out BST Hyde Park headline shows last weekend.
American singer-songwriter Ravyn Lenae also jumped up the charts with Love Me Not at number three, while Lewis Capaldi's newest song, which he debuted at Glastonbury Festival, Survive, moved down from the top of the charts to number four.
The singles chart is completed with Chappell Roan's Pink Pony Club, which remained at number five.

Ban put in place for Edinburgh Oasis gigs as authorities commit to safety
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info Ahead of Oasis playing three shows at Murrayfield Stadium authorities have announced a no-fly zone will be implemented at the gigs. Drones and other flying crafts will be strictly prohibited as aviation watchdogs issue a warning to anyone looking to deploy a device which could injure fans below. A penalty will be dished out to anyone breaking the rule and those behind the event have warned there will be an extensive security operation at the capital events. Similar rules were brought in for Oasis' comeback performances in Manchester's Heaton Park and Cardiff's Principality Stadium last month, the Sun reports. Brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher are set to take to the stage in Scotland for the first time in fifteen years this week. They will play three sold out shows on Friday August 9, Saturday August 10 and Tuesday August 12. A source said: 'Banning drones above the gigs is the right move. All it takes is something to go wrong or someone who doesn't know how to properly fly a drone to make a mistake. "If one falls into the crowd people could end up badly hurt.'

Oasis fan ‘left bruised after Liam's maracas wrestled away from her'
Oasis had just finished another epic gig, concluding the set with Champagne Supernova as fireworks lit up the sky. Leaving the stage on Sunday, Liam Gallagher, the band's lead singer, threw his tambourine to one side of the Wembley crowd and a pair of tied maracas to the other. The latter landed straight in the hands of Chantal Arpino, a 42-year-old mortgage adviser from Buckinghamshire. But before she could pocket her memento, she claims two men ripped the maracas from her, pulling back her fingers, drawing blood and leaving her with cuts and bruises. Arpino, who paid more than £1,000 for two tickets for her and her partner, said: 'I caught them in the air. I've got my hands on both of them but they are strapped at the handle and my hands were twisted holding on to them.
