Radiohead

On August 14, 1996, Radiohead took the stage at the Great Woods Center for the Performing Arts in Mansfield, USA, during a transformative era in their career. Just before this live recording, the band had released 'The Bends' in March 1995, which marked their breakthrough into mainstream success, showcasing a more confident and mature sound. This performance features some standout tracks from that album, like the haunting 'My Iron Lung' and the anthemic 'The Bends,' capturing a pivotal moment as they were gaining a reputation for their intense live performances. Interestingly, this show came just as they were beginning to experiment with their sound, paving the way for their later groundbreaking album, 'OK Computer.' The energy and connection with the audience during this set reflect their growing prominence in the alternative rock scene.
