Ok Computer Oknotok 1997 2017

I bought the CD. The quality of the sound is really good, no pops or odd noises. Plus, one of the best albums in music history.

OK Computer was first released in 1997 to tremendous critical adulation. While not as immediately accessible as its outstanding predecessor, The Bends, OK Computer has proven to be not only Radiohead's finest release, but one of the best "rock" albums ever. The two CD version of this latest re-release, the third incarnation of OK Computer (the previous releases were the original album and a circa 2009 2CD/1DVD boxed release and companion 2CD release issued by Radiohead's original label), boasts one CD containing a remaster of the original album (from the original analogue masters), and a second CD containing three previously unreleased tracks and a collection of previously released B-sides (including on the last release of the album), also all remastered. The remaster of the album proper, on first listen, sounds better than ever. The sound is crystal clear and very detailed. I did not notice significant compression, at least on the initial listen. The three "new" tracks are at least very good, certainly not on the level of the album proper, but worthy of repeated listenings, and worth acquiring for any Radiohead fan. The B sides, which include some excellent tracks, are not worth acquiring again, but for those who did not pick them up previously, add to the value of this set, and they are also all remastered. The packaging of the two CD set is downright skimpy, a simple cardboard fold-out, with no trays and no booklet. The original CD had a booklet with lyrics and graphics. In short, this set, which includes an excellent remaster of a classic album and three previously unreleased tracks as well as previously released B sides, offered (as of this writing) at a very fair price, is well worth acquiring for anyone into Radiohead or great rock music. Just be forewarned that the packaging is not worthy of the music within. © 2017 D.A. Rich

I was introduced to Radiohead's music roughly 8 years ago when I was close to the age of 6-7. Yeah, that does mean I am 14 right now. I was in the car with my dad and he turned off the pop music on the radio and turned on Creep. I watched the live performance video, I was just fully engrossed in the song. I asked my dad what this song was called, Who is it by? Later that day I hopped onto our family's shared computer and searched for Radiohead on YouTube. After seeing Creep at the top search, I saw No Surprises which led me to discover the OK Computer album. After listening for about a year or so, in 2017 OK Computer OKNOTOK came out. Seriously, this is one of the best albums I have ever listened to. It's perfectly gut wrenching and makes you feel so many emotions other then average pop music which usually lacks a good meaning. I was very happy to recently get a record player and to purchase this vinyl. No regrets with that, I love Radiohead. Radiohead inspired me to pick up a guitar and find a way to get deeper into their music, not just listen but also play it. Thanks for your service Radiohead. 🫡🫡

Great

This improves on timeless classic. Get this.

This is a very poorly made pressing of an amazing record. Apparently, the good reviews I'd read about this reissue only pertain to the EU/UK pressings because this US made pressing is awful. The surface static and no-fill noise at the beginning and end of each side is unacceptable. Certain parts of the vocals and electric guitar are distorted and the 3rd disc is warped. I can't find any information yet on where this particular pressing was made but this is exactly the sort of quality that comes out of the United Record Pressings plant. The EU/UK pressings were made by Optimal Media GmbH and they're supposed to be very high quality. This particular copy is definitely not high quality. The identifying etching on the runout is: BAZZA ALCHEMY IP XLLP 868-A2. It's the number 2 at the end that identifies this as the US pressing. I will return this for an exchange to see if I just got a bad copy but my hopes aren't high. According to other reviews I'm lucky I got a 3rd disc at all. I'll amend this review if my replacement copy is decent. UPDATE: I originally gave a review of one star for the terrible quality of the copy I received. I now have the replacement and it's like night and day. It isn't perfect but it's acceptable. The re-master is very good. They didn't hype up the bass and treble like most remasters - just great channel separation and clarity. There is hope for people returning for exchanges! I'll never understand why every jazz record I buy is flawless but rock, folk, hip-hop is very often poorly pressed. A few weeks ago I got the new Fleet Foxes record and it's absolutely perfect. Guess what? It was pressed in the Netherlands. Good luck to everyone looking for a clean pressing of OKNOTOK.

Cumple con la oferta, esperaba un acrílico pero los cds venían en un cover de cartón, pero lo importante los cds estaban bien

Increible

Un álbum imprescindible para cualquier melómano. La edición especial con las caras B te dan una nueva perspectiva de un disco tan escuchado.

This is NOT the box set edition, just the triple LP one. Description is misleading.

Boitier cheap (j'ai remis le disque dans son boitier du cd de 1997 et ai laissé le cd2 dans le cartonné) et c'est bien le seul défaut de cette édition. Pour le reste, (l'original était déjà très bon car prises de son de rêve) le remastering à partir des bandes élargi largement chaque instrument et le rend encore plus pur. Le cerveau ne peut que prendre son pied. A acheter pour les puristes et les adorateurs de cet album fantastique.

Álbum absurdo, excelente prensagem, excelente edição. Capa tripla com abertura estilo livro, 3 encartes envelopes, material gráfico e arte de primeira! Os 2 primeiros discos são o álbum clássico de 97, o terceiro disco é praticamente um álbum extra. 11 músicas que você não vai encontrar em nenhum outro álbum de estúdio do Radiohead, não são versões demo nem nada no estilo caça níquel. 11 músicas da época do Ok Computer reunidas no terceiro LP, de altíssima qualidade! Sonoridade muito boa, ótima masterização e mixagem, apesar de ter notado alguns cliques e estalinhos, principalmente no último disco, creio que decorrente de farelinhos do papel do encarte envelope. Produto feito com muito esmero!
