Rare/Original RADIOHEAD - DRILL  EP VINYL 1992 Ltd Edition of 3000

Catalogue Number : 12R 6312

Up for auction is the first Radiohead UK release - the super-rare DRILL vinyl ep!

Drill was the first commercial release of Radiohead, debuting on the UK charts at #101 on 5 May 1992. It is considered a rarity amongst Radiohead fans, and is not commonly available. "Thinking About You" was taken from the band's Manic Hedgehog demo tape, whilst "You" was a newer version; "Prove Yourself", "Thinking About You" and "You" were re-recorded for Pablo Honey in 1993, the band's first full-length album.
All tracks on this EP are demo versions and were recorded at the Courtyard Studio in Oxon. The band were still called On A Friday when the songs for this ep were recorded. They changed their name to Radiohead the following month. Produced and engineered by Chris Hufford and mixed by Timm Baldwin.
"Prove Yourself" is notable for its U2-esque chord changes and unvarnished emotional vocals. "Stupid Car" is a slower song, almost a ballad, and the first of many dealing with Thom Yorke's distrust of vehicles since he and his girlfriend Rachel were involved in a car crash.

The vinyl is in excellent condition with only a couple of surface scuffs on one track.

The sleeve has a little wear on the top edge where the disc has worn through. I have tried to illustrate this in the fifth photo down.

Apart from this the sleeve is in otherwise excellent condition.

Please do not hesitate in contacting me if you have any further questions.

Please do not bid on this item if you have no positive feedback and international bidders please contact me prior to winning the item so that we can agree a price on delivery.
