News for April 9, 1999

It looks like a box set called “Good Karma” full of Radiohead’s b-sides may be released in the future.  A few online music stores (amazon, best buy) lists it to be released next year.  This may or may not be from Parlophone, Radiohead’s record label, and it will probably be available only in the UK.  This is all the info I know.  I’ll post more when it comes in.

The new Pavement album, “Terror Twilight”, will be released on June 8.  You may recall that Jonny provided the harmonica part on a few songs.

The Amnesty International concert that Radiohead took part in last December will be available soon on video on DVD.  It has been showing on Pay-per-view in the US but only contains 3 of the 10 songs Radiohead performed.  No word if the video will contain more footage and there is no release date set.
The new official Radiohead website should be up and running soon.  Stanley Donwood, Radiohead’s art guru, has been working hard on making the site.
Finally, I will be attending the screening of “Meeting People is Easy” in Chicago next Thursday at the Music Box.  I’ll most likely see the midnight showing also on Friday.  If you are going also, feel free to say hi.

not much new today. can’t wait for that r.e.m. tour! anyway, here’s an article from NME:

JONNY BLOWS IT

RADIOHEAD guitarist Jonny Greenwood has made a guest appearance on the new Pavement album – playing harmonica. The collaboration came about because the album, as-yet untitled and due out in June, is being produced by Nigel Godrich, who produced Radiohead’s 1997 album ‘OK Computer’, as well as last year’s ‘Mutations’ by Beck. When Godrich decided he wanted some harmonica on part of the Pavement album, he asked Greenwood to do it. Pavement’s spokesman said: “I’m sure they’re fans of each other’s. Radiohead have pretty good taste!”

for those of you in america who can’t possibly wait for the april release of ‘Meeting People is Easy’, visit cdeurope.com where, for an extra $15, they’ll transfer the PAL VHS version available in europe to the american format.
cheers!
