    In Rainbows is incredible. Not a single poor track on it. But, for me, Reckoner just stood out as something...as something...I dunno how to describe it. It was just downright genius.

    Thats a word I dont use very often either. In Rainbows is the best album to put on when you're coming down <laugh>

    Never listened to Jack Bruce, but Thom's Vocals on that album is genuinely brilliant. Definitely plays to his strengths.

    It is a really good album. I don't think they'll top HTTT though, it's very much intermediate between KidA/Amnesiac and In Rainbows; sits in a musical sweet spot for me. Starts strongly, and stays solid until 'There There' at which point the album begins to exceed incredible all the way to the end.

    Weirdly, HTTT is one of the albums they didn't spend much time on. It was rushed.

    Yeah, it's widely overlooked too. I'm sure I read somewhere that they weren't even all that happy with it when they finished. Took me a while to appreciate it but it's been my favourite ever since I finally did.

    I think if I were forced to pick I'd have to go for Scatterbrain. But yeah, that would be a very close second.

    Yeah man, love Cream. I was lucky enough to be exposed to them from being a toddler onwards as my old man played the north east pubs and clubs in blues rock bands.

    They weren't, they view it in a similar light to Pablo Honey. I find it very underrated and up there with their best work, but Kid A will always top the list for me and Scatterbrain is second for me <ok>

    Aye, I sort of agree with this. For me, along with Pablo Honey, its the weakest of Radioheads albums. But, that in no way means its a poor album. 2+2=5 and The Gloaming are brilliant.

    For me, Kid A will always be the best. The fusion of Electronica, and Jazz is something to behold. Every single track is so well composed. The album is also way ahead of its time too in my opinion.
