Radiohead
Kid A [2CD/DVD]
Release Date: 2000 10 03
Label: Parlophone Records
Rating:

The bonus disc on EMI's expanded 2009 reissue of Kid A hammers home how Radiohead precisely crafted the album proper. Radiohead pulled no singles from Kid A, so there are no B-sides or EPs with unheard songs and remixes, only live versions of almost all the album's songs (only "Kid A" and "Treefingers" are not here): a four-song BBC Radio One session from November 15, 2000, a version of "Optimistic" from Lamacq Live in Concert in October 2000, a seven-song set at Canal+ Studios in April 2001 and "True Love Waits" from the I Might Be Wrong: Live Recordings EP. While there may not be any little-known gems, the bonus material is quite useful in how it opens up and warms the sometimes chilly Kid A, illustrating the core strength of the material plus Radiohead's force as a live band. [The three-disc expanded edition adds a DVD containing three cuts from their June 2001 appearance on Later...With Jools Holland.] Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
