OK Computer on top...I can live with that! You can imagine usual so-called rap and grunge seminal selections. At least the Smiths made it.

I'm so relieved there are plenty Radiohead fans on this board. Based on some previous threads I've been involved with you would think the 90's (and Radiohead) had no relevance in music history. "OK Computer" and "the Bends" are two of my favorites of all
