Radiohead - Street Spirit (Fade Out) [Live at The Astoria]

Radiohead, playing "Street Spirit (Fade Out)", from THE BENDS.

Radiohead, in the "Live at the Astoria" concert on 27 May 1994, notable mainly for its collection of songs that would not appear until the release of THE BENDS, ten months later. It is also Radiohead's only concert home video/DVD to date.

This dvd captures Radiohead playing an absolutely amazing gig. The quality of the performance is remarkable - Thom Yorke's soaring voice, Jonny Greenwood's frantic yet precise lead guitar, Ed O'Brien's haunting atmospheric sound. The tightness and balance of the band is awe-inspiring.

The gig features songs from Pablo Honey and The Bends (plus a few others). These are Radiohead's more 'conventional, pre-experimental' songs, which will appeal to any fans of current UK rock music. They feature catchy melodies, great lyrics and amazing, powerful instrumentals.

Director: Brett Turnbull.

Is this the first ever performance of Street Spirit?

[Zedetnik]

It is possible, because it was on this gig Radiohead release their new songs from THE BENDS.

[Drenwickification]

@Phoenix1342689 To be fair this concert was before the bends had been released so no one would have known what this song was hence why they cant sing along or anything
