4 stars I've just broken one of my habits of rating: This is the first time I rate over three stars an EP, and because it's an exceptional case! If most of the bands could make a mini-album like this, going beyond the commercial matter (well, let's face it: bands usually release this kind of albums mostly because of the money)... ...

The tracklist is almost perfect: I would add only one more song, "Pyramid song", but despite its absence, the tracklist selected is a quite good summary of Radiohead's twin albums: Kid A & Amnesiac. Moreover, this includes a beautiful new song: "True Love Waits", a fantastic acoustic ballad (still waiting for the studio version..), which is a b-side, becoming one of the favourites of the fans.

The performance is pretty good: the crescendos and beat changes of the studio versions of the songs are much more emphasized here (Morning Bell is the perfect example); they also can create exactly the same atmosphere in studio and playing live, despite the sound quality, which is not extremely good IMO. The only low note is the opening track from Kid A, "Everything in its right place", which starts nicely but then falls into a sea of synths and gets longer than its original version.

This is the best (the only?) live EP that I've heard, and the only one official live release from the electronic Radiohead's era. Get it!
