Box Set: $130

quote:

Inside a black box emblazoned with a dark image of a burned copy of OK COMPUTER are three heavyweight 180 gram black 12" vinyl records and a hardcover book containing more than 30 artworks, many of which have never been seen before except by us, and full lyrics to all the tracks except the ones that haven't really got any lyrics.

Under this weighty tome are yet more surprises: a notebook containing 104 pages from Thom Yorke's library of scrawled notes of the time, a sketchbook containing 48 pages of Donwood and Tchock's 'preparatory work' and a C90 cassette mix tape compiled by us, taken from OK COMPUTER session archives and demo tapes.


Vinyl: $30

quote:

A triple-sleeve gatefold holding three 180 gram black 12" vinyl records containing the original twelve track album, three unreleased tracks and eight B-sides, all newly remastered from the original analogue tapes. The sleeve includes a download card for a 320k MP3 or 16-bit WAV download of the 23 track album


CD: $17

quote:

Two CDs containing the original twelve track album, three unreleased tracks and eight B-sides, all newly remastered from the original analogue tapes.


Digital: no price listed

quote:

A 320k MP3, 16-bit WAV or 24-bit WAV download of the original twelve track album, three unreleased tracks and eight B-sides, all newly remastered from the original analogue tapes, available to download on 23rd June.




Actually my first Radiohead album. Went from here to The Bends, then Pablo Honey. The documentary on this album and tour, Meeting People is Easy, is a good yet sometimes depressing look at the band during that era. I think this was the pinnacle of Thom's morose/withdrawn phase.

I just don't get they hype for this album and radiohead. Saw them here in New Orleans and it was good but didn't blow me away.

I actually liked The Bends more than OK Computer in my lead up listening to the show

Bends was more r&r so not surprising. Street spirit is their best sing imo. Kid a is probably my favorite album, definitely if you consider amnesiac as part of a double lp

You'd be pressed to find a band over two decades in still writing at as high a level as these guys. moon shape pool was an absolutely beautiful album

It's certainly an expensive hobby. I'll probably skip this one, despite how much I want it. I already have OK Computer on 180g vinyl. I'll download the b-sides and extras when released to see if it's worth having them on vinyl.

Same. $30 is a very good price though for a 3 X LP special release like this.
