A short clip from Ed Peto’s blog:

“In the meantime I’ll leave you with this phone video of an impromptu, al fresco Peking Opera session in Bei Hai Park, central Beijing.”

“Actually, I included a small interview with a Chinese rock musician after your review. He’s a guitarist from a band (Sound Fragment) that actually quotes some of Radiohead’s songs in their music. He gave me very short answers. He could not explain why Radiohead is good.

Do you listen to Radiohead? : Yes.

How did you hear about In Rainbows? : The Internet.

Why is it attractive to you?: Because they are Radiohead.

Are you satisfied with the album? What do you think of Thom Yorke’s performance?: Surprisingly wonderful experience.

What do you think of how they released this record?: Because they are rich, they can play with their record.”
