Heat oil and bacon in a 12 inch skillet over medium heat; cook, stirring, until bacon renders its fat, about 10 minutes. Add oregano, garlic, onions, and salt and pepper; cook, stirring, until soft, 8 minutes.
Add tomatoes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring, until sauce thickens, about 45 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add spaghetti; cook until al dente, about 7-9 minutes.
Drain then add to sauce with basil, and toss. Sprinkle with Parmesan.
