Radiohead..

[hampsteadclaret]

I watched the final epic episode of 'Peaky Blinders' last night, [Season 4] and in a series which has featured some brilliant music, this song stood out - played in full near the end of the programme, it reminded me of how talented and innovative Radiohead had been in their earlier days.

I bought their first six albums, then just sort of stopped listening to them.

This is 'The Pyramid Song' from the album 'Amnesiac' [2001]

That'll teach me to post a link without watching it through first. Below a link to a live version of "Black Star" without the kn**head in the middle ruining it!

it reminded me of how talented and innovative Radiohead had been in their earlier days.

they've always been super-talented but they've been more innovative, evolved and got better as they've got older.

So many great songs.

Everything In It's Right Place is a particular favourite of mine; Kid A was such a brave album to follow OK Computer with and as a statement of intent for an opening track it was jaw dropping, as well as being great in its own right.

[DHClaret]

'Everything In It's Right Place ' ... another reference to Dyches Burnley Team.

Rumour has it that Defour is Fitter, Happier

'Fake Plastic Trees' from 'The Bends' [1995]

- excellent musicians the lot of them.

If ever I want cheering up, I just bung Radiohead on the gramophone and hey presto,
I feel like I'm alive.

Well, compared to them, I suppose I am.

[Stalbansclaret]

I can go quite a long time not listening to Radiohead and not missing it but then I hear them, am reminded just how brilliant they are and will then binge on them for days as far as music is concerned. The Bends is about the best indie/rock album I know and the more recent "weirder" stuff is seriously addictive once you get into it.

I'm sure this track was used in a previous Peaky Blinders series Hampstead...You and Whose Army

A big tip for anyone who likes OK Computer as an album (and if you don't you're wrong) is to get hold of the 3 extra tracks , I Promise, Lift and Man Of War, released on this year's anniversary re-release. They are every bit as good as the stuff released on the album at the time.

[BabylonClaret]

Simply brilliant.

[Right_winger]

Radiohead are dire. The have only 1 good song which is obviously creep apart from that it's all depressing drivel.

[hampsteadclaret]

- 'which is obviously 'creep'..

Really?

At a guess most Radiohead fans not too keen on that song.

[BabylonClaret]

No. Creep is a really good song. Bur thwre are a hell if a lot more.

[Right_winger]

I'm not a Radiohead fan. Find them awful. I'd rather listen to Daniel O'Donnell than Radiohead.

That says more about you than Radiohead. Regular visitor to Daniel's house?

Here's another from the Bends - described in Q as "a powerful, bruised record of frighteningly good songs" which is a perfect summary.

It's hard to pick one from that album as the best but as this kicked in the first time you knew the album is going to be a great ride.
