One of my favorite albums of all time. A true "needledrop" record for me. Put the needle down. Walk away. Enjoy. Only get up to switch sides.

Where has the time gone? I'm hoping Radiohead does something special for the anniversary, though they don't strike me as a particularly nostalgic group. They seem to always be focused on where they are heading versus looking in the rearview mirror.

But in so many ways, modern pop/rock music can be divided into pre/post OK Computer eras.

Let down and hanging around...

Yeah, all the stuff I listened to as a teenager has or is turning 20. I doesn't make any sense since I still feel like I'm in my early 20's.

Impeccable timing for your post. Just saw this at the Steve Hoffman forums:

Same here, except the stuff I listened to as a teenager is now a lot older than that. . .

Pretty sure at the age of 35 I became Merlin and started aging backwards.

One of my favorite albums of all time. Never get tired of hearing it. 20 yrs...wow.

Placed the preorder for the uber edition. Yes I love this that much.

I plan on getting the 2 disc CD.

There are very few albums I'd spend this much coin on. This one. And Sgt. Peppers (which turns 50 this year and whose uber edition I will also buy).
