It was a mistake to put the poll up. I see that now. I was hoping for more discussion about the similarities between the two albums, and not a contest between these two evenly matched Giants of the BEA.
It's turning into a "this is great/that one sucks" battle, which was not my intention.
Voted Abbey Road, my third favourite Beatles album (Behind Rubber Soul and Sgt. Pepper), all 3 make my top 100, that said I do really like OK Computer, just nowhere near as much as The Bends (Which I prefer to any Beatles album) or Kid A.
As for the similarities between the albums, I've personally never noticed any. Maybe I'm completely wrong however. _________________
I am one of those guys who has Ok Computer at No.1 and Abbey Road at No.2.
Similarites, well they are both considered one of the best albums of both bands. Have some of their greatest hits. They are guitar-pscho albums
But for me they are in that specific order because, Radiohead and the Beatles are my two favorite bands. abbey road gives me a lot of memories of my childhood. My dad used to play this album, over and over again. So.. I think the reason I enjoy this album the most, is that it reminds me of my childhood.
Ok Computer on the other hand, was the second album I listened from Radiohead back in the day, and it was after Paranoid android, I realised this album could change my life forever. I only listened to oldies, because of my dad. After Ok Computer, I became a music obsessive, and makes me pretty much who I am today. _________________ "Hurry Up, We're Dreaming"
