4.0 out of 5 stars Pleasantly surprised, 23 May 2008
This book is good. Not sycophantic. Well researched. Nicely Paced. I think it will satisfy the die hard fans, and the casual fans- Its as much a piece about pop culture and sociology in 1997 as it is about okc.
Agree with previous reviewer. Would also add if you have to get a radiohead book, I would recommend this one. The 'story' of radiohead approached in other books isnt that interesting, but this, the story of their music, is fascinating.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than OK, 16 Jun 2007
By Mr K (Sheffield, UK) - See all my reviews
Radiohead have been the subject of many, many books, and it might have seemed difficult to develop a new angle. But by focusing on one album, and looking at the music, movies, books, politics and other factors that influenced its creation, Footman has come up with a really good read. You might not agree with everything he says - I certainly don't - but he's an intelligent, articulate writer, whose enthusiasm made me want to listen to the album again (hadn't for a couple of years). Also, for those of you who think Radiohead are just doom and gloom merchants, he's got a real sense of humour, sometimes at the expense of the band and their too-serious fans. This book is highly recommended. Give it a go.

5.0 out of 5 stars A good read, 19 April 2007
I really enjoyed this book. It beautifully captures the spirit of the band and the music. It's comprehensive, but you don't have to be an obsessive to get a lot out of it. What appealed to me most was the good thinking and good writing. I don't usually review books on Amazon, but this one stands out for me. Best enjoyed mellowing out with a glass and the music playing.
