Oasis' debut album 'Definitely Maybe' has been voted as the best album of all time in a recent survey by British Hit Singles & Albums.
The 1994 album, which went on to sell over 7 million copies worldwide, took the top spot ahead of The Beatles albums 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band' and 'Revolver'.
Radiohead's 'Ok Computer' was voted as fourth best, while Oasis popped up again in fifth with their second album '(What's The Story) Morning Glory?'.
The poll which had over 40,000 votes from the British public, also featured Nirvana, Stone Roses, Pink Floyd and The Smiths in the Top 10.
British Hit Singles and Albums editor David Roberts said: "Usually these polls are full of records that people have only just bought because they are freshest in the mind.
"But this poll shows that the truly great albums always have longevity."
