NPR Is At It Again!!

This is a great day for all connoisseurs of fine music. Our beloved NPR has done a great thing and made the final show of Radiohead's North American tour available for all of us to download. The show was recorded at the Santa Barbara Bowl on August 28, 2008. It goes without saying that I have already downloaded the podcast from iTunes and have listened to the majority of the show. Actually, this reminds me that I might be overdue for mentioning the Radiohead show I saw this summer in Chicago. It was fantastic. To be honest with everyone, it is the single best concert that I have ever been to. The show that NPR is making available is very good as well. After listening, I would have to say that the highlights for me have been "Talk Show Host" (this song was a standout from the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack), "Jigsaws Falling Into Place", "Body Snatchers" and "There, There." 

Who am I kidding? The whole set is awesome and if you have never given the modern masters a chance, I suggest that you give this set a whirl. Here is a link to the site that allows you to stream the show.

You can also download the podcast via iTunes. Just go to the npr homepage and look for the show All Songs Considered. Lastly, if you have not purchased In Rainbows, please do so. It really is a masterpiece. Every single song breaths with life and I truly believe that it will be considered one of the greatest albums of the first ten years of the 21st century when it is all said and done.
