►A LITTLE ABOUT ME: I'm Dean Wolfe, a mostly self-taught Canadian guitarist/composer/multi-instrumentalist/singer/producer/performer. I started out as a full time musician, on the road at age 17-19, then went part-time ever since, holding 'day-careers' like chef (red seal papers), spiritual health care while raising a family. As a producer I've made hundreds of my own songs for media and award winning documentaries etc. I've been in several bands including a prog/jazz fusion act nFuze, playing International Jazz festivals and jazz clubs. I mostly abandoned the prog genre in the '90s but have returned to it now with vigour 30 years later. My own prog band was rejected by record labels as "too progressive' in the late 80s, so i explored grunge, pop rock and alternative, alt-folk / acoustic fingerstyle guitar and ambient electronic as well. Recently i found shoegaze and lo-fi as well. I have a home studio that is ramping up for lots more music so stay tuned.

One of the best band of the last 30 years no doubt
My uncle introduced me to Radiohead. it was an Ok Computer cassette. I was 12-13 years old. I'm 31 now. I can't live without them.Thank you Uncle
Same my father introduced me to Kid A when I was around 15. My favorite band of all time
You're welcome nephew
I managed to convert two of my nephews and they're both glad I did.
this performance of reckoner, is one of the bands best. absolutely gorgeous.
Year 2000 I was about 14-15 my father popped Kid A into his surround sound system that he has just bought and was super proud of, it felt like I was experiencing the future, it’s hard to put into words, I felt like I wasn’t worthy to listen to what I was listening to it was like I timed traveled to 20-30 years in the future and I didn’t belong there but man I was obsessed.
I first started listening to Radiohead in around june and since then they've been my favourite band as i feel like they make very different and interesting music whilst still being accessible and easy to listen to
Great description actually of their music
the last verse of videotape always had me in tears
"this is my way of saying goodbye"
for your information, Videotape is Thom Yorke
favourite song of the album.
@@heavensentyoutomeYes Nude and Videotape are the best for me too.
This performance of Videotape is sublime imo 🥺🙏
Beautiful performance & a great reaction
My first encounter with Radiohead was when I was a teenager and my buddy kept blasting Hail to the Thief every time we drove around. I wasn't too into them at first, but slowly and surely more and more tracks grew on me until I loved the whole album and eventually the whole catalog. Now they're my favorite band.
Hail to the Thief is definitely a weird one to start with. But i think it was actually my introduction to them too.
my first encounter wth radiohead was when i was about 12 yo (i'm 32 now), my older brother (16yo) had bought the Ok computer CD and my mind exploded right there when I listened. Fan ever since
I got introduced to Radiohead about 15 years ago by pandora. I was walking home from school listening to pandora on my old blackberry. The song ‘Subterranean Homesick Alien’ came on and it blew me away. It just kinda spoke to me. I remember that entire first listen very vividly. No other song has left an impact on me like that one did that day.
Awesome!
Reckoner is beautiful
Yes 👌

I discovered radiohead purely by accident. When I was around 13 years old (circa. 2000) my mum had 2 of their albums (the bends and ok computer) in her cd rack but had never played them. I put them one one day because i liked the album covers and was utterly transfixed. They've been my favourite band ever since
Wow cool, and must have been young mum
@@deanwolfechannel she would have been 39 at that point
This videotape version is my favorite. The ambient wall of sounds from Ed in this one is gorgeous
Phil's tom rolls too
Best segment of this basement occurence, videotape, reckoner and all i need are crazy good!
Can't wait for the King of Limbs in the basement, it's my fav Radiohead 'thing'
If I remember correctly, the section that was broadcast ended at Where I End & You Begin, the final two songs were outtakes.
I used to listen to Headbangers Ball on MTV2 on Saturday nights while in high school. One Saturday night, I let the tv run and at midnight, a 2-hour block named MTV2 Subterranean started with Radiohead’s “There There”. The visuals and drums….been a fan ever since!
I got into them back in about 2005/2006. I was in Tower records and saw the album OK Computer and bought it, thinking, "I've heard this is supposed to be great." I'd listen to it on my discman on the bus home from University and it was a great escape from the monotonous 4 hour journey. Great times.
Nice memory to share. Music magic
I've been a huge Radiohead fan since their very first record Pablo Honey. I saw them live in Dublin in May 1993 - they were supported by another UK band called Strangelove in a small venue called the Rock Garden. There were probably only 100 people there. It was right before their single 'Creep' became a huge hit. I was lucky enough to get to speak to Thom Yorke after the gig for a couple of minutes. He was very polite and a bit shy. I've seen them many times since and have loved the musical journey they have taken me on - right up to the recent Smile releases. Just an amazing band.
What an amazing experience to meet Thom then- you both had no idea of what the future held!
the last song is rarely heard really. so good, as are all of theirs. so good.
It is!
1997..18 years old.. .I had heard about them and certainly heard creep, but my first real boyfriend brought me OK Computer and all of that is still ingrained in that record. Struggled a bit at Kid A as most folks, but got hooked after a few plays and since they have been my home, inspiration and if there is an expression of devine art for me, this is it. I saw them in 2001 and then again in 2014 (or so) and it was like meeting old friends. They untie the knots of my soul and I still discover little detailes at the songs even if I have heard them tousends of times. ❤
Wonderful, thanks for the comment
I first got into Radiohead in the very early 90s, I caught them live at the Reading festival 94 and havebeen fortunate enough to have seen them many times since. For me one of the Great bands, innovative, challenging, beautifully sublime...my favourite band without a doubt.
I agree, I consider them one of the greats as well
Um, I heard Creep years earlier, and watched Just, High n Dry and Fake Plastic Trees music videos on a chart-show in 1997, and decided to buy The Bends. Loved em ever since.
There's a bike track near my girlfriend's place, down beside a river. The lettering on a public display map is the same font as- and the title of the track is "The Bends"
👍
Glastonbury 1997, the year of the mud. Now loving From the Basement.
Dean Thanks very much for reacting to this arguably one of the best bands coming out of England
I had probably heard Creep because it was ubiquitous, maybe Karma Police on the radio, and a friend was playing the My Iron Lung EP once. But an acquaintance in my junior year of college (2000 or so) told me to check out OK Computer. I did and have never looked back.
I first fell in love with them after OK Computer came out around 97 and the old Paranoid Android video was on repeat on MTV. I had known of them previously from "Creep" and maybe "Fake Plastic Trees", but Paranoid Android finally caught my attention and I went and got the tape and have been in love with them ever since.
Prior to that I had some buddies of mine that went to see them at a nightclub here in Charlotte(at The Pterodactyl Club) back on the Bends tour and they always talked about how fantastic of a show they had put on that night, but it took me a couple more years to finally catch on. I always regretted not going out that night. lol.
I did finally get to see them on the "In Rainbows" tour, which was fantastic, but do hate that I missed that 94-95(whenever it was) show in a more intimate setting.
Go Slowly is so beautiful.
Thanks for doing these!!!
truly glad you like them!
Even though I like the songs better for the In Rainbows From the Basement, the King of Limbs is even more mind blowing. Can't wait for your reaction!
I will probably do it in a week or two
My 1st proper introduction was Paranoid Android. My ears were not use to such a complex song structure. Then the beauty of No Surprises. I went back and realised this is the band that does Creep! My 1st gig was Radiohead in 2000 in Glasgow. Kid A was just out,but it didnt matter it was completely different to OK Computer. The gig was a musical journey,which im still on 👌
I’d heard Creep intermittently as a teenager, but in my first year of university (1998) I borrowed some CDs from a friend and one was OK Computer. Became instantly hooked, bought their earlier albums and then each future one as they’ve been released. The only band I’ve ever made an effort to see live (just the once)
You experienced them 'real time' which is a privilege in a way
Hmm first time placing the name to the music was probably the Street Spirit music video on TV, but I don't remember if I thought anything about it. My friend lent me her CDs, and since my sleep sucked (being 15 yrs old or so), I put Kid A on my walkman while I stared at the ceiling in the dark. It was such a good fit! Well, except for national anthem blasting my eardrums, which was a little less relaxing lol
I was introduced to Radiohead due to a friend who gave me a cassette of Plablo Honey. I used to wake up early in the mornings with this music, before going to school (long long time ago) It was my favorite alarm for a long time.
I listened to many bands as a teenager but Radiohead was always special to me…
Thanks for doing this and greetings from Buenos Aires😊
Have you heard of Piazzolla?
Piazzolla? No, tell me about it
Sure ;-)
Astor Piazzolla was an Argentine tango composer, bandoneon player, and arranger. His works revolutionized the traditional tango into a new style termed "nuevo tango", incorporating elements from jazz and classical music..
Maybe you could start listeneing to "Libertango". It would be lovely (at least for me and many othes for sure) if you react to his music.

I was introduced to Radiohead when the song Creep was released. I was a young twenty-something huge fan girl of alternative, goth, and punk rock music (Skinny Puppy, The Dead Milkmen, The Cure etc.) So, while I kinda liked Radiohead's attitude, I really hated Creep right out the gate. And the funny thing was, that I remember actually wanting to like it because I thought those stuttering guitar breaks were wicked and the falsetto "run" at the end was awesome but the rest of the song? Meh. Whiney. Over the next decade or so after the release of the song, I would meet people who thought I would love Radiohead and seemed surprised I didn't listen to them. I'd wonder at how little these people knew me and what in the heck was happening with them that they liked that meh band. Occasionally, I'd also come across some article gushing about how Thom Yorke was considered a musical genius but ...seriously? Creep? Then, shortly after In Rainbows was released, I heard Reckoner and couldn't believe it was the same band. Then I heard Karma Police and Iron Lung (I was just downloading random tracks so my intro to the rest of their catalog was slow and crazy out of order). Finally, I heard Paranoid Android and that was it. I was hooked. I had to hear everything on every album. Now they are at the tippy-top of my list of favorite bands. Though tbh I'm still not a massive fan of Pablo Honey --but I do like Creep lol. And, as my kids would say --"Thus endeth the journey of a smug, closed-minded hipster". And that, my friends, is why I love my kids because...guilty.
Where I end and where you begin performance is probably my fav live performance of theirs 👏
You asked for a comment about the first time I heard Radiohead.
My first hearing was in the early 2000s, I was coming at it from the point of view of my love of progressive rock, jazz and all kinds of interesting music that was not tedious and inconsequential. I like stuff that is different, and what is thoughtful, and what I consider is brilliant. I had heard about this band before and was curious about them, but I hadn't heard any of their music. One day I was going to a second hand music store in Bournemouth UK that I sometimes go to, and I was just looking around to get any few albums that I’d fancy. in the window they had a CD and it said Radiohead OK Computer. I didn't know anything about it then but I knew well - I've got to have that! So I bought it and a couple of other things as well. When I played it, I thought wow! this is fabulous! this is just great. I really liked it. It took me a short while before I heard another album of theirs - which turned out to be The Bends. That was it. I had to find the other albums. I have been listening to them ever since.
There was a time earlier which turned out to be another one of the pivotal moments in my music life. It happened when I was in the second year at University in Liverpool in 1972 - or possibly ’73. I was walking past the Empire theatre in Liverpool and I saw a band was going to play tonight and their name was King Crimson. I thought well that's an interesting name - I guess I'll buy a ticket. I did. I got a cheap seat at the back of the Circle. As the lights went down, and seeing that there were lots of free seats up there, and that the front row was pretty much empty, I just stood up and walked down as the lights were lowering - and I sat in the front row next to a roped off area where Peter Sinfield was operating the light show and the music console. I leaned over the balcony and they played. In the Court of the Crimson KING! On King - the lights went purple - it was so majestic, that whole performance. I knew then this was my music and I have been a lifelong fan of KC ever since. Since then I've been a firm so-called “progressive rock” fan. All the usual ones. From the 60’s with the Kinks, The Who, The Beatles of course, Led Zepplin, all the interesting music of the 60s.
Then in 1967, hearing Ode to Billy Joe, and Light My Fire by The Doors for the first time after my first smoke with my two American freinds - while we were camping on the sand dunes with a small wood fire in the sand overlooking the still waters of Napeague bay on Long Island - seeing the blinking red light of the radio mast reflecting in the water and feeling rather good. Before then various interesting bands from the UK, hearing Radio Luxembourg late at night in my room. All of the music which was far out - and then this. After that it was Yes, Genesis and finally Van Der Graaf Generator - I didn't get into them until much later. All of this stuff is just excellent to me.
And then of course Radiohead. Every album of theirs (except perhaps the first one), is brilliant in their unique one-off exploration of adventure in music. They're just matchless.
Cool, thnks for the share. It's really sad to say but the hey day of music is passed. It's all so different now. Lots of great new prog bands and the smile too, but somehow that magical time seems history
Even my kids noticed all the best music came from the past (classic rock etc)
Check out the live 02? Live Canal tv broadcast for Amnesia while it’s still around. I had only seen cuts but it’s mostly complete and sounds brilliant and is a compelling performance, though I can’t say I’ve ever seen them phone it in. They create a bed for his vocals. One of my favorite Videotape performances.
thanks, i might do that
i buy the album ok computer after enjoying after few time watching karma police and paranoid video clip. A critic at tv give the album 10 out of 10 and i be curious in same time to hear more. At the beggining i dont really love the album and i said in my head oh at least we have 2 great song. after more and more listen that change completely and become my favorite album and i start learning some music need more listen because more complex and not easy listening. I buy after that the bends and i be shocked to listen fake plastic tree because few years ago before i buy ok computer. at the tv music station in here the videoclip and the song hit me hard. But i didnt know that be radiohead make this song because after i have this music station i listen more french music because i'm from quebec canada. i be so happy about that to know that the same bands. after this 2 album and no internet to discover more someone ask me at school what is your favorite band. i said radiohead. he talk to me about a song named creep but i didnt know at all this song ironicly. i buy pablo honey after that. he dont understand how radiohead can be my favorite band and i didnt know the existence of this song :)
Hello to you in Quebec eh?!!😉
There's a really good video analysis on UA-cam of Videotape that shows that the piano part is actually syncopated with respect to a "hidden rhythm" that's only present as a slight shadow in this version as opposed to the early versions of the song. It's a really cheeky song history!
Some people forget Thom can shred. In a band full of serious guitar players, nobody else has the level of control he shows at 13.03.
Nobody.
Clearly a moving piece for you to listen too. I didn’t identify with Radioheads music in my youth. But I’ve found their emotional expression move varied and maybe if I’m true my own as well.
King of Limbs from the basement is so good
As a student in the 90's we'd either go to clubs that played rave/techno/house or rock/grunge/britpop. When Creep came out, it was a massive hit, and I had a habit of buying albums if there was a song out that I really liked, which explains why I bought every Radiohead and Prodigy album since then I guess, and not been disappointed by any of them.
got in with the bends, ok computer was less immediately accessible, and then they lost me for a long time with kid a
i don't know exactly when i started listen to them. About 7 years ago i was bored and decided to check out the title and lyrics of a list of songs i added when i listen to songs randomly in a music app, then i was scared by an album cover with a wierd plastic man 6 times😅, i thought it may be a very good album but the ugly cover prevented me from listening to the full album right away, days later i got used to the cover and was so curious about it, so i looked at the band name radiohead, well it's a cool name, and the album name is the bends, i listened to the full album and easily fell in love, never had an an album has so many songs i like, then i gradually listened to other projects of radiohead, many songs even better than songs in the bends, then radiohead became my favourite(my first language is not English so there may be many mistakes in the comment)
Wonderful comments, you're English is fine. Thanks for sharing, music is a wonderful gift
When these guys first came on the scene I absolutely hated them. I was fully entrenched in like thrash, death metal, etc...I was like "get this whiny, crybaby shit away from me..."
It wasn't until one of my roommates got Hail to the Thief (when it was first released) that something started to click. I was definitely in a different musical space at the time and he hated it, but something about it was really compelling to me. Eventually I really fell in love with the album (pretty sure psychedelics were involved) and decided to check out the earlier stuff that I had passed over. Initially, went to Kid A/Amnesiac and that was a big no. Didn't gel at all....But then...
I went back to OK Computer. I had heard the radio stuff. I HATED Karma Police, but subconsciously I always liked No Surprises, even though I never sought it out to listen to. But after falling in love with HttT, going back to OK Computer was this crazy revelation and it was love at first sight. Or first listen. Whatever. It was fucking BRILLIANT and I kind of hated myself for being so hostile to it for so long. And it was two polar opposite tracks Climbing up the Walls and Let Down that forever sealed the deal for me with Radiohead as a band. Climbing, of course, being so violently chaotic and actually very "heavy" just turned my view of the band on it's head. Meanwhile, Let Down is so catchy, poppy, sparkly and beautiful in a morbid, melancholic way, and it was that song where I realized Thom is a truly amazing singer. I really wish that had been a track on this performance, it would have fit perfectly with the overall vibe.
So that was it for me, the bounce from HttT back to Ok Computer just opened my eyes and ears to the world of Radiohead. Even though I had heard stuff from them since they popped in in what, like 92/93, it was a good decade before something they did hit me in the right place at the right time. Definitely a legendary band as far as I'm concerned, but I cand certainly understand why a lot of people can't stand them, since I used to be one.
Yep. There's my severely truncated Radiohead story.
Love your story!
@@deanwolfechannel if you want to see something really cool, check out Cee-Lo Green's live cover of Reckoner. I know it's floating around on the Tube somewhere still and it's super good ❤️
The modern day Pink Floyd.
I hadn't considered that, I'll have to process and see
David Gilmour is a fan off Radiohead and said they have moved music forward similar to what Floyd were doing back in the day
@@samuelalexander558 so gilmour said that, what a high compliment. I feel even better now that I came around to dive deeper into radiohead
@@deanwolfechannelGilmour said he is a fan and actually prefers The guitar based album The Bends too OK computer.
I see your Sleepytime record on the wall back there... You gonna video react to The Last Human Being?
I reacted to the first song released ahead of the album so far. It is perfect.
@@deanwolfechannel Ah, I didn't see that. Will check it out. I've had the limited vinyl now for over two weeks and haven't listened to it. Waiting for a proper listening party I'm hosting this Sunday, cranked up in my living room. Can't wait! I also have tickets to the show here in Dallas. Cheers!
The beginning seconds of All I Need always makes me think of Streets of Philadelphia by Springsteen. 😅
I shall be that man.
You, Sir, no.
It's not Rainbows.
