Take one of the best pianists of the new generation. Imagine that five years ago he buys a record, "Ok Computer" by Radiohead, and is blown away by it. From that moment, a passion is ignited in him that leads him to collect and listen to anything he can find about the English band: bootlegs, unreleased tracks, b-sides, collaborations, everything.
Now imagine how this passion can influence his work and how one day, almost playfully, he shares some "new" pieces with friends: his arrangements for solo piano of some Radiohead songs. From there to a tribute album is only a matter of time.
The wait is over: the songs are ready, what title to give the album? Answer: the title of his favorite song. And for a week now the CD has been on sale: 15 songs ranging from "Pablo Honey" to "Amnesiac," each more refined than the last.
Ideal as a background. For many but not for everyone. In any case, fascinating.

Some of these songs do not diminish the greatness of the original compositions but instead enhance the dramatic sense, only using the piano's signature.
No one should expect to listen to a rock album; what is heard is as far removed from that music as one might imagine.
