Quote:Lon,
b, recommend me one Radiohead and one Clinic please. I've only heard a little. Thanks.
Hi Lon, glad to do so ...
Radiohead:"OK Computer" is probably one of their best acclaimed albums and ranked as 162 on Rolling Stone Magazine's top 500 albums of all times. Awesome album with the songs
"Lucky",
"Karma Police" and
"The Tourist" as a few of my favorites on that album.
"Kid A" is another excellent album, with
"Everything in its Right Place" and
"Optimistic" (one of my all time favorites songs from them).
"The Bends" is the album that kind of set the tone for OK Computer. Some good tracks on this album are
"Fake Plastic Trees",
"Bullet Proof I Wish I Was" and
"My Iron Lung".
Clinic:These guys are a quirky band from Liverpool and are often seen wearing full on scrubs and surgical masks (looking like, of course, doctors that work in a "Clinic"). They often use vintage keyboards, most notably the Philips Philicorda, Melodica and peculiar off-scale chord progressions.
"Walking With Thee" is one of my favs from them and I think this album will give you a good feel for their style. Some stand out tracks are
Harmony,
"Come Into Our Room" and
Walking With Thee".
