Moseley Shoals is a 1996 album by the British rock group Ocean Colour Scene and one of most important albums of the of the Britpop era.
The first single taken from the album was You've Got it Bad, followed by The Riverboat Song, which was popularised by Chris Evans on TFI Friday. Perhaps their best remembered song The Day we Caught the Train with its "oh-oh, la-la" chorus reached number five in the charts. One for the Road was also due to be released, but the band decided to concentrate on 1997 release Marchin' Already.
In 1998 Q magazine readers voted Moseley Shoals the 33rd greatest album of all time.
