Description

Rescued from defunct formats, prised from dark cupboards and brought to light after two decades in cold storage, OK Computer OKNOTOK 1997 2017 will be issued through XL Recordings, coinciding (roughly) with the original 1997 release date(s) of Radioheads landmark third album OK Computer.

OK Computer OKNOTOK 1997 2017 features the original twelve track OK Computer album, eight B-sides and the Radiohead completists dream: I Promise, Lift and Man Of War. The original studio recordings of these three previously unreleased and long sought after OK Computer era tracks finally receive their first official issue here.

All material on OK Computer OKNOTOK 1997 2017 is newly remastered from the original analogue tapes.

OK Computer was originally released on various dates ranging from May to July 1997. Produced by the band and Nigel Godrich, the album features the singles Paranoid Android, Karma Police, Lucky and No Surprises and is widely cited as one of the greatest works of Radioheads or any artists catalogue. OK Computer was the first Radiohead record to reach #1 in the UK and to be nominated for the Album of the Year Grammy. In 2015, The National Recording Registry selected OK Computer to be preserved in the Library Of Congress as a recording that has proven culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.

The LP formats include a digital download card for the 23 track album.
