Free Music Notes for Kid A (Special Collector's Edition)

Free Music Review: Best Money I ever spent!!
Hit: 5 Stars

First off let me say I am a KID A fan. I open my CD collection and Kid A is the only CD that calls out to me 'play me, play me' Yes sick I know but very typical of a Radiohead addict.. I spent $23 on this collectors edition. You get Kid A which is always a plus BUT you get a CD with live cuts and let me just say, this CD is worth the price many times over.

Best cut on the CD for me is Everything In Its Right Place where Thom Yorke's vocals go off sounding like an instrument with static. He does a great job with this song. It was recorded at the Canal Studios along with other great recordings, Morning Bell(with acoustic guitar - Ahhh!), The National Anthem, How To Disappear Completely (fantastic recording), In Limbo, Idioteque, and Motion Picture Soundtrack (always a favorite). These are all live and they blew my head away.

The Second CD also features recordings from BBC Radio One, Everything In Its Right Place, How To Disappear Completely, Idioteque and the National Anthem all quite crystal clear with a different take on the songs. Optimistic was recorded live in Victoria Park and the last cut on the cd is True Love Waits a live version.

If you are a Kid A fan this is a must have for you as some of these recordings of these songs are better than what is on the cd in my opinion but I also guarantee you will not be disappointed!!

Kid A (Special Collector's Edition) Poster

Special Collectors Edition package comes with deluxe, lift-top box packaging, include both audio discs and add a DVD with a variety of promotional music videos, TV performances and filmed concert performances plus a series of postcards.
How is it that Kid A's opening track, laden with an electronic vocal stuttering "bleh, bluh-bleh bleh bluh" is the most fascinating statement made in rock & roll this year? Because somehow, even when Radiohead blathers and blips nonsense, it's profound. The band's future-perfect musical grammar may be hard to decipher, and the melody is even more subliminal, but the journey traveled with Radiohead reveals them to be not only rock music's greatest adventurers in 2000, but teachers as well. --Beth Massa
With every record, Radiohead jump off higher and higher cliffs, daring fans to take the plunge in their artistic feats of derring-do. The journey from that scratchy bit of raw guitar angst in "Creep" (from 1993's Pablo Honey) to any song on Kid A amounts to a high-wire act that few, if any, bands in popular music have ever attempted. It's hard to believe both records come from the same planet, much less the same band. Likewise, the grandiose, Pink Floyd-esque thematic scope of 1997's extraordinary OK Computer is nowhere to be found here. Quiet, contemplative, and less confrontational, it opens with a lack of bombast, as "Everything in Its Right Place" builds tension with ghostly voiceovers, a dry pulse, and a shadowy organ motif. That tension appears over and over on Kid A. On "How to Disappear Completely," the unsettled, atonal keyboard waxing in the background offsets the plaintive Thom Yorke vocal, and on "Idioteque," detached, inorganic rhythms make the melody's despondent aimlessness that much more nerve-racking. Throughout, Radiohead fearlessly explore dissonance and structure, melding twisted, Brian Eno-meets-Aphex Twin sonic landscapes with utter discontent in the world around them. They may sometimes overreach, letting artsy ambition prevent them from giving us the arena rock-god goodies. But their commitment to restless creativity also yields pleasures that don't fade but instead become more resonant upon repeated listenings. If OK Computer was rock's most relevant expression of millennial angst, Kid A is the opposite; it's the 21st century's first record that sounds like the future, barely caring what that Y2K fuss was all about and much more worried about what the hell we're all supposed to do now. --Matthew Cooke
