Enough has been said about this compilation not being representative of what the band are about, but for an objective test I compared the track listing with what they performed live when I saw them at Victoria Park earlier this week. They played just five songs from the first disc and another four from the second out of a total of twenty five performed. Were it not for the second disc that would be a terrible hit rate for a supposed "Best Of" album; even with it that's barely over a third of their live set covered. There are no two ways about it; this is a fundamentally backward-looking compilation.

That said, the songs are still great and stand on their own merits even outside their original album contexts. If you want a Radiohead sampler, this is about as good as it gets at the moment, despite the flaws.

Personally I don't do compilations and I agree that they are not suited to most of Radiohead's music anyway, since every album after 'The Bends' has had its own concept. You could ask 10,000 different people what should go on a compilation album and you would probably get 10,000 different opinions. Lets be quite clear here, all these tracks are great and anyone checking out Radiohead for the first time will hopefully enjoy it. No one needs to feel guilty about buying this album. I find it quite hypocritical when anyone living comfortably in the western world talks about exploitation. We've all been reaping the benefits of exploitation for years, unless you live with the fairies at the bottom of the garden and make a living from selling daisy chains to squirrels, so I think it's unfair to single out the men in grey suits at EMI. Anyway I've given this review 5 stars in support of the music and I'll leave the politics to the hypocrites and the Guardian editorial. Enjoy the music.

Have you bought it? 4 Jun 2008
By G. M. Dobb VINE™ VOICE
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
Having actually bought the 2CD version of this album (unlike some of the previous "reviewers") I can honestly say:

The tracks do seem to blend in well despite being taken out of their album context and despite being presented non-chronologically.

If you *only want one* Radiohead CD in your collection then why not buy this one. There's some good music on here and nearly all of the tracks that someone new to Radiohead (where have you been?) would want/need.

The packaging is a little disappointing. Not much detail and no new information for the more-than-casual fan. Either the "booklet" has been produced to minimise EMI's carbon footprint or to minimise the production cost - you decide...

Radiohead, in a nutshell
The poor ratings of i guess is down to the song selection, but I bought this because I wasn't really sure about Radiohead but realised there must be a reason for all the hype. Read more

Insight & impoverishment
A lot of people take real offence to the idea of a 'best of'. They see it as selling out, giving-the-plebs-what-they-want, etc. Read more

It's a travesty that this collection doesn't have a straight 5 star rating. Every single track has something going for it, and as a compilation it is simply mesmerising. Read more
