Book Synopsis
What binds this series together, and what brings it to life, is that all of the authors - musicians, scholars, and writers - are deeply in love with the album they have chosen.

Trade Review
Griffiths portrays a thorough, academic deconstruction....no small feat for a book of only approximately 120 pages....[Griffiths] also brings his vast familiarity with records of all genres past and present, which lends undeniable credibility to his insight. -- Dan Weller * Times Leader 10/06/04 *
Some will find it amusing that Griffiths, professor of music at Oxford Brookes University, compares the album's lead-off track to 'the cello part in a Brahms or Faure sonata.' But given that a) the guys in Radiohead probably listen to Brahms and b) the guys and gals in Radiohead's audience probably don't, he's actually performing a service....B+ * Austin American-Statesman, Oct. 17, 2004 *
Griffiths gives an interesting take on a band whose legacy hasn't yet been chronicled into the canon. -- Zack Adcock * The Hub Weekly, 1/13/05 *
