Well, it would be hard to explain. Like I (sorta) said on another thread today, some music, to me, just has a transcendent quality that is not quantified with normal good music/bad music critiques. It just transcends in
my head.
The Beatles seemed to be a musical phenomena that many, many people the world over keyed into in this way.
I key into Radiohead's music in the same way. And that, plus the way their music has evolved from a sort of straight ahead alt-rock into...what it is now...makes them like my generation's Beatles...only I am the only one who thinks so...I think, lol.
Most people like to compare them to Pink Floyd, but I think they are more akin to The Beatles.
But, of course, they are 'like' neither of them. It is more the phenomena around them that I am talking about...rather obtusely.
