  • Summary

    At last! Here’s our first episode looking at Radiohead’s classic 1995 release ‘The Bends’.

    Why the delay? Recording issues. Scheduling. Time. Re-recording. Anyway, cobbled together like The Beatles’ Free As A Bird, but with no audio that sounds like it was recorded in an echoey bathroom, Stephen and his guests Ross Braidwood & Davie Melon, take on a hypothetical scenario: If Radiohead had all The Bends’ singles B-sides available to them at the time of track selection for the album, which would they put on it? Which album tracks would have to be dropped? Watch/Listen now to find out which six tracks make it into Side A of the vinyl version of The Bends.
