"Let Down"
Easy Star All-Stars with Toots and the Maytals
This is the first single from the inspired hybrid experiment of "Radiodread," a reggae recasting of Radiohead's epochal "OK Computer" album. It is both testament to the strength of the writing on the original album and the perfect malleability of reggae as a vehicle for Radiohead's lofty concerns on technology and the human spirit. Several prominent guests appear on the album. "Let Down" has a rock steady flavor and features Toots Hibbert, one of the authentically commanding voices of reggae.-who sings with a passion that resurrects Otis Redding. Buford O'Sulhvan's trombone solo is worthy of the great Don Drummond of the Skatalites. 08/26/06
