There's also a 4 song solo piano Thom Yorke: From the Basement that isn't talked about enough. He plays Videotape, 2 songs from IR Disk 2 and a song from The Eraser. HIGHLY suggest you give that a listen, no need for a reaction if you don't want but you should definitely watch it when you have a chance.

When AMSP was launched, I hoped for a tour with the London Contemporary Orchestra. A missed chance that they didn't in my opinion. So there's a spark of hope that there will be a Live From The Basement including at least a chamber orchestra; just as they added horn players on the TKOL Live From The Basement recordings.

In weird fishes, when you thought you didn't hear Jonny playing, he was recording a backwards solo.

It is. TKOL is highly underappreciated though, in my opinion. Overall it might be Radiohead's most melancholic and perhaps even their most dreary album. But as Thom put it in an interview recently: "You know you're in trouble when people stop listening to sad music, because the moment people stop listening to sad music, they don't want to know anymore. They're turning themselves off."

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but Ed O'Brien is kind of like the John Paul Jones of the band. He's sort of the connective tissue to many of their songs. You can definitely see all the minor subtle things he does live. And when he gives out his "eeeeeeeedddddddd" it gives me goosebumps.

@ExileOnDaytonStreet

@powerslave0606

The intro of Lucky though, all that "ambience" sounds in a lot songs that he makes (and Treefingers is the highest point of that). He certainly have a lot to give, but he seems quite overshadowed by Jonny and Thom. Very few possibilities to bright. I really like his backing vocals. I hope to hear him sing in his upcoming album (he only have released one instrumental track from it).

What he did in weird fishes where he played his guitar and didn’t hear anything, he blindly played a solo to loop for the outro. That’s another reason why Weird Fishes is the Best off In Rainbows, the live technices

So I was upset that you were doing in rainbows from basement before TKOL version but then I remembered that you would be reacting to go slowly which is one of Their coolest songs ever!!!

2:26 IMO the timing in Weird Fishes is part of the fun. Ed and Jonny are on different tempos and it really sells a feeling that the music is fluid. Like waves in an ocean, where everything moves separately and together at the same time. As much as the OKC > KA > Am > HTTT stretch of albums emphasized overlapping harmonies, IR > TKOL (and to a lesser extent AMSP) all deal heavily in polyrhythm. I think one of the reasons I like Weird Fishes as much as I do is that it feels like the best mixture of both layers of texture that Radiohead likes to employ (overlapping harmonies and overlapping rhythms) together in one song.

'what ever one i'm listening to at the moment is my favourite' - I have never said that out load but you nailed it.

You had the same reaction I had after hearing Nude. You just have to bow to something beautiful.

Oh man, that's funny. I had just gotten through rewatching your other RH reactions today.

I have a giant crush on Thom and seeing him dance makes me so happy xD

Just in case you didn’t notice* For weird fishes: Jonny and Ed start the first guitar part, Ed’s playing his epiphone casino. Thom joins in on guitar after the first two lines and Ed and Jonny start playing different variations of the arpeggios. When the song comes to the break Jonny is playing the Rhodes and Thom is playing guitar, this gives Ed time to swap out a guitar with his sustainer pickup for his droned notes during the outro. When the beat comes back in it’s basically just Ed and Thom and Phil. This gives Jonny time to start building his loop on his akai headrush pedal, Nigel is able to mute his mic so it isn’t heard. Then Jonny plays his loop after thom and Colin come in with their parts. Very special live interpretation.

Thank you so much. I have watched this so many times and it was such a joy to watch it with someone who gets all the glorious parts! I always think about how much I would have liked to play in this band. Being a musician and be able to see how these masters do it, is just amazing. Just heaven really. This is my favorite album of all time.

Watching this performance gets me so emotional. Radiohead is my favorite band of all time and they make the perfect soundtrack for my life, and I’m sure as well as others’. Thom Yorke’s voice is so soothing and the melancholy in his voice makes me feel his lyrics a lot more. Cheers for a great reaction.

Thanks for uploading this, D. It's great to see your reaction to one of the most beautiful sessions filmed in music history. No other stands besides it, only TKoL sessions from them too. And this is another good excuse to hear it again. You're going to love second part, hope you're uploading it ASAP!. Cheers my fella!.

Love the Basement recordings! The King of Limb is nearly my favorite Radiohead thing out there. Least favorite studio album but the way they do the live versions are amazing!

What makes these recordings so much tighter and cleaner than those of an actual concert is mainly post-mixing. Though I prefer attending an actual concert for it being a more immersive experience and far more improvised, From The Basement recordings never fail to bring tears to my eyes. They top my live recordings list, together with Talking Heads' "Stop Making Sense" and Portishead's "Live At Roseland NYC". Come to think of it, I guess I have a thing for heads. ;)

Glad to see you react to this one! One thing you’re learning about Radiohead that we all love is you grow an appreciation for the music, and then you hear it live and are blown away. I wish this video showed more of Jonny playing guitar on House of Cards. It really blows me away when I discover what I’ve been hearing on the album is from his guitar!

Hope you're doing well dude. Thanks for another great reaction. Can't wait for part 2!

These long-form reactions are fascinating and really fun to watch! I've been obsessed with RH for 25 years. There are a handful of songs that I didn't love at first listen but that have really gained my appreciation and love over time (and many listens). It would be interesting to see from your perspective a "top 5" list of RH songs that maybe you didn't like initially, but over time you've come to enjoy. Just a thought. Can't wait for PART 2!

I'd really love to see you react to some of their B-Sides and bonus tracks after TKOL, such as OKNOTOK, In Rainbows Disk 2, Ill Wind, Supercollider/The Butcher, These Are My Twisted Words and Ill Wind.

My buddy and I (both musicians) often see eye to eye on music likes. He wasn't much into Radiohead until I showed him this. Seeing them play better in a live setting than in a studio setting is something to behold. There one or two duds in this set, but as a whole it's untouchable.

Loving this! Thanks for putting it up. The reason it's such high quality sound is because Nigel produced it in his basement studio - he had a series where he wanted to capture bands playing live but with the best possible record sound, and he did an amazing job. You can look up "from the basement" and see a lot of other great ones he did.

Finally you did it! In rainbows is one of my fav albums and from the basement is brilliant

Same happened to me and others.

This is a pleasant surprise on a Sunday morning. I see you Radiohead reaction - I press like.

This performance is the epitome of Radiohead for me. There are many more bands I'd love to see in this very studio!

You're becoming a true Radiohead fan more and more. Everyone has the same feelings towards "The Gloaming." xD

The sound quality might be because they are in a studio and are able to mix the sounds like on an album. I just love that concept for a live show.

Historically the From the Basement videos are released after a tour of an album BUT recorded before the album's tour as a dress rehearsal or recital sort of thing before they go out and play shows live. That is why some tracks from In Rainbows aren't played and some classics are revisited. Love the content!

This is my fav Radiohead recording, and I actually prefer this vid to the actual album, it just sounds amazing

Finally! Thanks my man

House of Cards can be best described as "Thom, Colin and Phil play a pretty pop song whilst Ed and Johnny get really fucking weird in the background"

I really like your reactions, you have interesting things to say

It's not fair, the video is 31 minutes long but feels like only 5 minutes. Loved the reaction, looking foward to part 2.

One of the aspects that makes this recording captivating is that you realize that what they compose isn’t accidental.

This along with the 'The King of Limbs From the Basement' are the two documents of Radiohead's live performance that I would take with me to the island.

This my favorite video of all time, so glad to hear what you think! For musicians as us, this is bloody gold, cause you get to see what they do. Jonny is insane during Arpeggi... He plays guitar, organ, samples himself and then play on top of it. Sound quality: It was recorded in Nigel aka the musical god's basement, that's why. 6th member of Radiohead and brilliant producer! ❤️ And it looks like the most fun band in the whole world to be part of. Now I am at The Glooming and looking forward to to reacting to that bsss riff in the live version ❤️ Just go and see them live, it's a bit like being touched by something holy to me

This set is mind blowing

I would love to see you react to In Rainbows Disk 2! I find it quite underrated and it has lots of different sounds. It's similar to In Rainbows, but it still has quite a lot of differences and I feel like you would really enjoy it.

You should check out Scotch Mist. It came out right around the time In Rainbows was released and truly captures the energy and vibes of the album perfectly. And as somebody else mentioned in the comments, you really should do The King Of Limbs from the Basement after this. It's such a better representation of how the album should sound. Making it more organic brings a tangibility to it that makes the experience so much more fulfilling.

never realized how much this specific performance of The Gloaming is such a TKOL precursor

didnt notice the mic issues, was half asleep tho. this whole set, recording is so good.youre right about the audio quality too. Thoms voice is amazing still.
