I'm off to see them next month as they are playing fairly locally. Looking forward to a great night of Reggae jams.

I didn't know they did a version of OK Computer. I've only got Dub Side Of the Moon, and while I'm not the biggest Radiohead fan, I'd like to see how their music transcribes into reggae.

They opened the sunday at Glasto and i thought that would be a brilliant way to start the day if they played Sgt Peppers full through, which i'm guessing they did. Envious for sure.

I'm not crazy about Radiohead either... but the Easy Star version is a must-hear.

I personally don't like the OK computer version but DSOTM is excellent. Their EP full of original tracks from last year was damn good too.

Picked up Lonely Hearts Club quite recently. Massive fan of the guys. First heard Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds from a friend, first real experience was seeing them at the Park Stage of Glasto where they opened with Beat It (tasteful tip of the hat to Jacko) and though my memory of the weekend as a whole remains sketchy I think it was Beatles that they played for that set. Was incredibly good, excellent reggae retake on classic songs.

Love them. I don't think I like Dub Side better than the original, but it's definitely an epic album. As for Lonely Hearts ... I don't feel like I've given it a proper listen, but I have heard it and love it so far.
