Radiohead, "In Rainbows" Correction, and New Year's Live Footage

Radiohead,

I’d like to issue a minor correction to my previous “In Rainbows” review.  After buying the physical copy at FYE, and listening to it again, I can honestly say that it ranks up there with their last few albums.  “Not that great” was a bit of an understatement.  I was disappointed because my expectations were too high.

I still don’t think it’s “Ok Computer,” but it’s definitely “Hail to the Thief.”

I’ll just rest easy knowing that I wrote that short-sighted review on an indie blog that no one will ever read, and not after we become huge.

Heeeeeeeere's Johnny! (...Greenwood of Radiohead, from the New Year's Eve 07 footage)

Also, for people that haven’t heard somehow, Radiohead released some live studio footage on New Year’s Eve.  It contained the entirely of “In Rainbows” performed live in the studio.  As you would expect, they changed up the songs quite a bit from what I’ve heard.  Justin and I are planning on watching it tonight.  I’m highly looking forward to it.
