It wasn’t until I stood in line one day at a Barnes and Nobles that it hit me how big Radiohead has gotten. Of course I already knew they were big. Obviously, they are a huge force in the music industry since most bands out now have been influenced by them in one way or another. But when you come across a “Best Of” album for a band, something in your brain “clicks” and you are suddenly aware of the impact that particular artist has made. It’s no surprise Radiohead has received 2 Grammy awards and sold over 25 million records worldwide. But those facts don’t mean anything until you actually “experience” Radiohead. This “Best Of” collection has all the essential songs to experience this amazing band. After all they’ve accomplished, I don’t think much more can be said about them. They’ve blown apart any walls that tried to box them in and defied the critics that once labeled them as "one-hit wonders". This “Best Of” collection is an album that celebrates one of the most influential bands of our generation.
