3. Radiohead's Pablo Honey, Part 2

This week the two wrap up Pablo Honey by exploring the album's less discussed back half. Austin ponders why his high school band's cover of "I Can't" didn't win the talent show, while Nick contemplates how many times Radiohead can end a song by turning the guitars all the way up. Plus, the two hold a lightning round discussion for the album's mostly unloved b-sides, only to find out one of them has a secret favorite.

Songs Discussed:

1:46 - "Vegetable"

8:20 - "Prove Yourself"

9:15 - "I Can't"

17:14 - "Lurgee"

About the Podcast

Anyone Can Play Guitar

Learning every Radiohead song on guitar in order

Listen along as a food critic in Chicago and a Latin teacher in Switzerland make their way through the Radiohead catalog, learning how to play every song on the guitar. To prove they've put the time in, they're forcing themselves to record versions of each track to play for all to judge. Armed with this knowledge, they'll discuss each song, while simultaneously admitting to potentially embarrassing personal stories from more than 20 years of Radiohead fandom.

As a guide, we are following the Radiohead Complete: Lyrics & Chords (Faber Edition). What we can't learn there, we'll be looking up on sites like Ultimate Guitar and Songsterr.
