Radiohead Matters
Channel: Matters
Date: 2020-10-13

Of the 100 journalists flown to Spain to interview Radiohead, mine was the first one. OK Computer was about to be released, and the excitement was palpable. Colin, Ed, Johnny and Phil sat with me on a hotel rooftop garden in Barcelona on May 22, 1997, marking the arrival of what was to become one of the most influential and revered albums of all time. The recording was reclaimed from the original cassette used on the day and the interview, as with all Matters interviews, is unedited, captured as it happened. Watch the documentary Meeting People is Easy for greater context.
