As the taste-making producer of Lily Allen and Amy Winehouse, the stepson of Foreigners Mick Jones, and brother of Lindsay Lohan flame Samantha Ronson, Mark Ronson is a talented musician who, at times, loves to speak his mind. As such, hes the latest to chime in on the ongoing and ridiculously funny Jay-Z/Oasis beef.
In a MySpace blog titled "Oh Noel , the celebrated producer dropped some A-game smart-assery: Noel Gallagher said I should learn three chords on the guitar and go write a tune. So i just wanted him to know that I'm actually taking guitar lessons from Jay-Z right now and he's already taught me both chords to Wonderwall (tune!). In fact, it's so much fun having Jay teach me all of Noel's songs on the guitar (hooray!) that Im thinking of doing an Oasis/Jay Z remix album a la The Grey Album. Potential titles are Champagne Superhova or Definitely Jay Z. I'll keep you posted...
Judging by the quality interpretations of British rock songs on Ronsons Version album, released in 2007, this could possibly be good if it actually happens.
