Radiohead appreciation thread

I think I prefer King Crimson'd first and second phases over their third. But their third had grown on me. But 1 is immortal.

I love all iterations. This album happens to be my favourite one by KC.

Court, Lark's Tongues, Red, Starless, and Discipline for me. In that order. But I hold their top 5 in higher esteem them most other bands' top 1.

Court, Red, Discipline, Thrak and The Power To Believe are probably my top 5 (in no particular order). So quite literally one album each from all their phases. But the 80's stuff is what really drew me in.

Hah, yeah, I think I'd just gotten to the end of my going-to-live-gigs time... I recently went to a Tinlicker gig here in Sydney, I havent' been a live gig in 13 years, and left 10 mins after they came on, I'd already had my fill of loud noise and crowds during the excellent support act. Plus, whoever was on the desk shoved the PA up 20db for Tinlicker, and it just turned into a hot mess of distortion and too loud.

That’s really too bad. I absolutely adore Tinlicker!

I managed to snag Bruford's box set last year from Amazon for $20.. and have been listening to it off and on all year. Great collection.

If you're referring to major vs. minor keys in Radiohead songs I'm afraid you don't quite grok the complexity of what's going on.

If we're going to start posting radiohead covers, then you can't go past Christopher O'Reillys incredible album for solo piano.



Always been one of my favourite recordings to listen to when on the train, walking around the city etc.

When Robert was touring Frippertronically as a small, independent, mobile, and intelligent unit I sat within 15 feet of him and his 2 Revox tape machines in awe. A peak experience for me and apparently for him as well.

Robert Fripp, 20th of February 1981 at Houston Hall

Another amazing piece of sonic detection work from Alex Mundy as he matches up the original Frippertronic reels to audience recordings. These three concerts are significant in that Fripp recalled them...

Indeed, Chris is an excellent pianist. I've seen him live several times.
