The special edition of Radiohead's re-issue of OK Computer comes with a cassette of extra tracks, but also includes a program for the ZX Spectrum. Someone has loaded it into an emulator. It's not that exciting, just the names of the band are displayed and then some random graphics and sound. Still, it's a very geeky extra considering very few people could use it.
I do like Radiohead, but I haven't bought this album as I already have most of what is on it. I don't tend to buy many special editions, although I do have their In Rainbows vinyl edition. I haven't actually got their latest new album. I've been buying other stuff lately.
These two have almost all the tracks on the new edition.
I enjoyed their Glastonbury performance from the comfort of my sofa. I love that they just do their own thing and don't just go for the most commercial options. I'm sure they do well enough as it is. This is a band who wrote a song called How I Made My Millions :)
Rock on!
I'm Steve, the geeky guitarist.
I'll buy guitar picks for Steem Dollars
Well, this is both pretty cool and mildly disapointing at the same time ...
I saw Radiohead live once, that was the only time i have ever seen any recognised band live and i really enjoyed it and yes that is very geeky indeed 😆 and i love it.
Wow, that really is old school...
I have quite a few MiniDiscs still... Pity they never really took of in the West. They never officially came to South Africa but I still love them 😁
I saw them around, but never had one. Remember portable DAT? Another dead format
Oh yes! I remember DAT too 😳
I still have my ZX Spectrum in the loft, unfortunately I neither have a tape deck or a compatible screen :( I got into Radiohead from the first album Pablo Honey, Ripcord was my favourite song from that album. I liked The Bends a lot too, OK Computer was great, but for me that was the end of the journey.
Awesome. I remember they used to sell that computer at K-Mart under the brand/model name "Timex Sinclair". Our family opted for the Texas Instruments Ti-99/4a which was pretty cool (another BASIC language machine) but was already on clearance sale by the time we got it.
My first synthesizer, a Yamaha DX27, had a cassette port and you could save user preset sounds to tape in similar fashion.
aimed at the USa the minialbum, but hey we all heard of radiohead here in belgium aswell :) . I just not sure what i see in the video? Or what it has to do?
Hey Radiohead is pretty good. So they decided to leave this song as it is.
