I don't know if that's all he does. But these pieces are surprisingly mellow and beautiful in piano (as they are in their original version).

I saw him perform live here in LA a few weeks ago. He performed his Radiohead transcriptions as well as some Elliott Smith transcriptions. Apparently he's releasing a CD of Elliott Smith transcriptions in the near future.

I knew I liked you for a reason [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Christopher O'Riley 's album is as good, if not sometimes better than Radio's performances. Its truly magical, I'm a HUGE fan.

no no no. Christopher O'Riley's album is good, but the originals cannot be outdone.

But some people who do not like Radiohead still like O'Riley's interpretations.

Seriously, this is insane.

I kinda find his stuff to be hit or miss. I saw him in LA a few weeks ago as well, and a lot of the songs just can't be transcribed onto a piano. "There There" and "Street Spirit" are two good examples of songs that were quite disappointing. On the whole though it is definitely worth a listen.
