 Flawed Execution... December 30, 2008
Terrence Rusch (Binghamton, NY)
...but as you allready know, excellent material.
It's all in the details, of the packaging that is. What all Radiohead fans and admirers know is that the band deserves a stellar box set retrospective in the vein of The Velvet Underground's "Peel Slowly and See" or Joy Division's "Heart and Soul." Instead Capitiol/EMI/Parlophone have just slapped together the 6 core studio albums of Radiohead's ouvre and thrown in the "I Might Be Wrong Live" EP as an added treat (?), incentive (?), ploy (?).
So... what you get here is basically a discount on just simply purchasing the 7 cds separately from say, oh I dunno, www.Amazon.com !!! Now if you are going to put together a box set containing the majority (if not sum whole) of a group's output, it's not a terrible idea to leave the original albums and thier packaging intact, as was done here. But the pernicious (in other words [...] up) lack of any rarities/b-sides/etc. is just unacceptable. To include the live EP is a bit strange since it was never considered by the band to be a proper album, live or otherwise. So if the inclusion of live material is the idea here, why not PREVIOUSLY UN-RELEASED live material? Or, if inclusion of EP's was the game plan, where's "My Iron Lung, Itch, Com Lag, and Airbag/How Am I Driving?" ?
At any rate, no rant is worthwhile without a solution. So, I propose that into into this bundling of cds be put an 8th cd containing the following b-sides from throughout Radiohead's career, in this order:
---I'm Okay, How Are You? (the B-sides)----
Palo Alto
Bishop's Robes
Coke Babies
Bannana Co.
Talk Show Host
Lull
Killer Cars (electric version)
Molasses
Gagging Order
Maquiladora
Cuttooth
Pearly
Fog
Paperbag Writer
I am A Wicked Child
-HOPE YOU'RE LISTENING EMI !!!!

Great for New Radiohead Fans June 25, 2008

I just rediscovered Radiohead this year and this was a quick, convenient way to get the entire collection. I had a friend who would listen to Amnesiac when I was in high school and I never really knew who Radiohead was (besides Creep) or even what the name of the cd was until recently. Needless to say, investigating the matter turned out to be a GREAT choice because I LOVE Radiohead now. Amnesiac was the first cd I really got into, but now it's tied with Kid-A for my favorite. Now obviously if you've been a Radiohead fan for a while then you probably don't need this because, undoubtedly you already have all of their albums! But if you're considering getting this and you're not already a full-blown fan GET IT! You will not regret it! But a word of advice, their music is quite different from mainstream (crap) music so you may have to give some albums/songs a few listens so that your brain and music interests can evolve because Radiohead is at a much higher level than other bands. :D

I received this boxset as a Christmas present and I just love it. This is perfect for those that have destroyed their previously purchased Radiohead cds due to over listening as I have. I've been listening to Radiohead for over 10 years since I was 12 and during my teen years wore those cds out. It's really about the preservation and nostalgia those cds meant to me and it doesn't hurt that it comes in a sleek package.
Good value, but only at the right price! April 29, 2008

I just picked up this box set at an HMV in Canada for $40! It was not on sale. That was the regular, retail price. I have no idea why it was so cheap, but clearly that's a heck of a deal, because the best price on this site is $64, and Amazon itself has it listed at $80. Buying the discs individually would have cost me anywhere from $75 to $120, including shipping and taxes.
I know Radiohead didn't approve this box themselves, and that sucks.
But if I was going to buy the albums individually, the money would still be going to EMI.
Sorry, I wasn't going to pass up getting the entire body of work (minus Rainbows) of such a great band for only $40.
At least I didn't illegally download all of them!
