How did Oasis so blantantly rip-off "Bang a Gong (Get it On) with "Cigarettes and Alcohol", and get away with it?

Oasis rip off the La's on the new record, but if Noel actually managed to get them to re-form wouldn't that make it more of a tribute?

john lennon "imagine" = "don't look back in anger " piano intro

"all the young dudes" = the rest of that song!

But the La's have reformed. Does this mean Noel's work is done?

Definitely Maybe meant Noel's work was done.
