Radiohead's first three studio albums being re-released in 2cd / 3cd/dvd packages - definitely on my wish list but which one to buy first? any recommendations?

OK Computer by an absolute mile! Great album that showcases everything great about the band until that point... it basically paved the way for the amazing band they became today...

^Yes. And if this is your first go-round with Radiohead just avoid Pablo Honey Completely.

Get The Bends I read that OK Computer's DVD is lacking when compared to the other 2, it only has 3 videos and a live performance on a TV show while the other 2 have video's some live performance's from TV and a full concert. So if want more bang for your buck get The Bends since its a better album than Pablo Honey.

Just buy them all.

They're $60 each though, I could get a new game for that price.

Are they fucking really???

That's bull. I'm not gonna pay 60 for Pablo Honey, that's for damn sure. EMI is seriously squeezing every ounce of cash they can out of Radiohead. I'm kind of starting to understand why Yorke and Co. hate them so much.

Opps my bad its like $30, but I saw it at best buy for like $60

Best Buy sucks. My wife once tried to buy a laptop there and they so tried to screw her over on price and the service was just plain awful... we requested our files be uploaded and they said initially a couple of hours... then every couple of hours we kept getting told it would take longer... then they said come back tomorrow... so she marched to the counter, made a huge scene to embarass the dumbass sales attendant,demanding our money back and disposing of the service contract... she got her money back and went to American where the service and price were great.

Anyways, my point... those a$$holes probably would charge 60 bucks for a CD...

This is why you have computer nerd friends build computers for you, like I do. Much cheaper. Also transferring files is simply a matter of dragging something onto an external hard drive.

Also weird: I found a bootleg Radiohead concert on DVD at Best Buy. No clue what it was doing there, but it was 10 bucks so I picked it up. Picture isn't great, but the sound quality was pretty f'n good.
