Thom Yorke’s “solo career” (or whatever we choose to call it) causes all sorts of complications in coming up with a definitive list of “Radiohead” shows. There are those who feel The Eraser and its associated work to be little better than wankery; there are others who think it should be considered in absolute unity with the rest of the band’s music.

This however, a solo show from early 2010 combining Eraser material with old classics, previews from The King Of Limbs, and as-yet-unreleased gems, must be considered within the Radiohead canon. As such, it’s a truly essential show for fans to own. A beautifully-recorded AUD, here is Yorke playing early versions of the songs that would go on to be rearranged for TKOL.

“Give Up The Ghost” (perhaps surprisingly) is essentially the same song as would eventually show up on the album (including Yorke’s delightful use of an echoing sampler to create a canon effect with his voice), but “Separator” (here under its working title of “Mouse Dog Bird”) is first performed as a gorgeous acoustic piece of optimism. We also get (unique) solo takes on “These Are My Twisted Words” and “Reckoner” as well as the first performance of “I Froze Up” in a decade, along with the best of The Eraser.
