2-6 are also on the cheap Airbag EP which has more tracks
than that. look for the U.S. Airbag/How Am I Driving? CD,
it's a better value.

Yeah, nearer OK computer than the bends... I want whichever
release "Tal Show Host" is on, that's a class track.

the version you like most is on the romeo & juliet
soundtrack.. the original is a the bends b-side (street
spirit single i think) and there's also another remix out
there on a compilation

Curses, I was hoping for the Romeo & Juliet version to be on
a proper radiohead release... Still, there are some good
tracks on that album, even if they have painful memories for
me :/

i recommend the airbag / how am i driving? ep instead as
well. bishop's robes isn't on this cd, but to make up for
that it has polyethylene (parts 1 & 2) and palo alto. it's a
great cd in my opinion. thom's voice is my favorite on this
cd out of all their releases.

those are all great tracks, however. b-sides that rank about
as good as any album track.

So since Radiohead gets compaired to Pink Floyd alot do you
guys think that one or two of them are gonna flip out and
put out really crappy solo albums?

I don't think either member would do well as solo
artists,indeed much like Floyd.

shop around, i have seen that exact same release in
recordstores many times! Sometimes just the Free
Record Shop. It's really not so rare, i think.

All those tracks are excellent though. If you haven't heard
any of them, i'd say it's well worth getting.

"heh i always see/hear that 'airbag' title and have never

"

If you bought all of the three singles released from Ok
Computer (paranoid android, karma police, no surprises), you
got special cards and stickers with those (in the
benelux-countries only, for some reason). And if you stuck
all the stickers on one of those cards, you had to send it
off to EMI. And you received the Airbag EP for free :-p
Together with a box to put the ep and the 3 singles in.
Pretty cool.

Altough, come to think of it... i was actually very
dissapointed at the time.

When Paranoid Android was released, the information on that
card said there would be four singles from Ok
Computer ('let down' was going to be the 4th single). And if
you collected all 4 of those stickers, you would receive an
exclusive ep made especially for the benelux-countries.

But shortly after no surprises was released, the record co.
placed adds in various music magazines announcing that the
4th single would be cancelled (apparantly because radiohead
themselves thought OkComp was already succesful enough, and
they didn't want to milk it any more), and the exclusive cd
was also cancelled.

You had to send in the first 3 stickers to receive
"something"

Which then turned out to be the airbag-cd (with only one new
song that hadn't been a b-side for any of the singles) and a
cheap cardboard-box! :-p

I know it's still a pretty cool gesture, but they promised
so much more originally!
