5.0 out of 5 stars Not one for the purists, but a good general introduction to the band, 19 May 2008

(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (VINE VOICE)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Best Of Radiohead (Audio CD)
There are obviously many 'protest' reviews here for this album and, to be honest, I agree with the sentiment. Radiohead are a band which are best savoured album by album, but that's not to say that a very good 'best of' album could be - and has been - easily compiled for those looking for an entry level Radiohead album or simply wanting the 'big' tracks.

Personally, I'd recommend 'The Bends' and 'OK Computer' to start off your Radiohead collection, they're two sensational, essential albums which will probably lead to you buying further Radiohead releases but, failing that, at least get the 2 CD version of 'The Best Of' Radiohead as the second disc may satisfy a casual fan and may actually be all a casual fan would ever need whereas this one disc version will merely whet the appetite.

Giving this album "one star" as a protest really demeans the music, which is sensational. Really, virtually every track on this compilation is a classic slice of artistic rock genius. So, although the concept may be upsetting the existing fans, any album which could introduce Radiohead to a whole new generation of potential Radiohead admirers has to have some value - and it does.

5.0 out of 5 stars Review the album, 29 Jun 2008

This review is from: The Best Of Radiohead (Audio CD)
Isn't this facility for reviewing albums? People seem to be getting caught up in the politics and forgetting the point. This album contains, in my opinion, some of the best songs of the last couple of decades. I don't agree that it's disjointed or that it's essential to listen to individual Radiohead albums in their entirety. These people must be so disappointed when they go to see the band play live and have to sit through a set full of songs taken from different albums.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent stuff!, 2 Oct 2009
By 
This review is from: The Best Of Radiohead (Audio CD)
Wasn't a fan for 10 years or so but bought this cd and is a great intro for anyone who is a bit dubious about them.
Yes they are quite slow and depressing but listen alone and chill out!!
