Tony McCarroll, ex-drummer for the band, hired the lawyer of ex-Beatle drummer Pete Best in a suit against his former bandmates for 20 percent of the band's earnings.
Part of the reason Tony was anxious to set the record straight was that he had got a little weary of the comparisons that were being made between him and Pete Best, Hills said.
Their position has always been that Tony should receive fair payment for the recordings made while he was in the group, but no more.

 Oasis, Oasis Band, Oasis Music
Formed in Manchester in 1991 as the Rain by Liam Gallagher (vocals), Paul "Bonehead" Arthurs (guitar), Paul "Guigs" McGuigan (bass) and Tony McCaroll (drums), the group soon fell under the leadership of Liam's older brother Noel Gallagher (vocals/songwriting), a former roadie for the Inspiral Carpets, who renamed the band Oasis.
Though Oasis was instantly popular after only one album, tensions within the band threatened to prematurely end its career -- the Gallagher brothers fought openly, the group launched press attacks against fellow Britpop stars Blur, and drummer Tony McCaroll suddenly quit Oasis in early 1995 after getting into a bar brawl with Liam Gallagher.
Despite the turmoil, Oasis pulled through their difficulties successfully, returning in late 1995 with (What's the Story) Morning Glory?, which debuted at No. 1 in the U.K. and became the second-best selling album in British history.
