    Summary At last! Here’s our first episode looking at Radiohead’s classic 1995 release ‘The Bends’. Why the delay? Recording issues. Scheduling. Time. Re-recording.

Which album tracks would have to be dropped? Watch/Listen now to find out which six tracks make it into Side A of the vinyl version of The Bends.
