The band started in Vancouver: http://www.allmusic.com/artist/young-galaxy-p851742/biography. I will change the phrasing to say “Montreal based.”

I saw this on the Record Store Day Facebook:

“Record Store Day Hey guys, the Radiohead Record Store Day piece that Pitchfork and others are talking about today is a UK-ONLY release. Took us by surprise too, those sneaky Radiohead fellas!”

He always looks worn out, but don’t you think he’s kept his baby face?

I did remember your avatar! I was hoping you would comment.

Yeah, most of the songs are excellent choices, I just thought including Tubthumping was funny. I do like that Baths covered the video version and focused on the verses, which are excellent but get forgotten because people love that crescendo so much.

I change it (and put a copy editor line through the old one). I tried to do a Progress Report with Jens Lekman a while back but he hadn’t started writing yet. That was two years ago, though. Might be time to try again.

These are new songs but not the first performances ever. And I think this may be the best they’ve been recorded (I couldn’t find them elsewhere online).

It was mentioned by a few artists! I had to edit all the statements a bit, but I’ll add the embed because it’s worth including. Here are some words from Jody Stephens on “Blue Moon” and his favorite recording moments:

“Blue Moon” and “Night Time” and “Thank You Friends”… there are some great, extraordinary moments. I’ll pick “Blue Moon” because I don’t think I did anything on it. Just a beautiful song. And again, the songs are always what I appreciated. At the time my perspective of listening to it was different, it was just wacky to the point of “How could anybody appreciate this wackiness?” In retrospect, in putting that behind me and just listening to the record and what it is, it’s a pretty brilliant revelation of where Alex was at the time.

I think you’re right! It’s been a while since I’ve seen the episode.

It was the American Skins. I thought it was a nice nod to the UK show. Here’s a video thing about the Northern Soul dance scene: http://www.mtv.com/videos/misc/615539/behind-the-scenes-northern-soul.jhtml

It’s from the K-Holes video.

I’m sure he’s been asked to do a ton of TV scoring and theme songs, so maybe if the right AMC/HBO show or episode of Two And A Half Men came along he could get his Emmy that way.

Cool, thanks. I’ll update!

This album is 37:29 long, so it’s also the shortest Radiohead LP. For comparison:

Pablo Honey – 42:11
The Bends – 48:37
OK Computer – 53:27
Kid A – 49:57
Amnesiac – 43:55
Hail To The Thief – 56:35
In Rainbows – 42:43

You’re right! He also wrote the Band-Aids jingle (“I am stuck on Band-Aids..”). So this is also a Barry Manilow cover.
