3 stars I'll be honest I didn't spend a lot of time with this double cd set. We get an hour and forty five minutes worth of music from "The King Of Limbs" album where every track is remixed and one is even re-titled, but there's multiple versions of some of these songs like "Bloom" for example is on this set five times. Now each version is drastically different from the other but you really need to be a fanboy in my opinion to really enjoy this. The numbers 1 to 7 underneath the album's title refer to the seven EPs that these tracks were taken from. An eighth EP was released after this set was issued and is available only separately of course.

No liner notes but on the back cover is a list of the tracks and what they called the remix, for example the opening track "Little By Little" is called the Caribou RMX and then they list who added additional production, and it's Dan Snaith in the example I'm using. Atmosphere and beats standout to me on this recording. Some singing but electronics seem to rule the day here. It's just a lot of music but to be fair for the avid RADIOHEAD fan who wouldn't want this compilation of EPs in their collection, especially for fans of "TKOL" as it's put on the front cover.

I got this cd from my daughter who was getting rid of her cd collection. She was such a fan at one time and still is I guess as she asked me the other day if I'd checked out that THE SMILE band yet that consists of Greenwood, Yorke and a Jazz drummer. Not yet. This recording was still in it's package along with several others, busy girl. Going with 3 stars here.
