Radiohead

The live recording of "Nude" (originally titled "Big Ideas (Don't Get Any)") took place on November 30, 1997, at the iconic Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco. At this point in their career, Radiohead had just released their landmark album, "OK Computer," which came out in 1997. Known for its experimental sound and contemplative themes, the album showcased a shift in the band’s direction. Interestingly, the performance captures an early rendition of "Nude," lending insight into the band's creative process as they explored and refined their sound prior to the release of their next studio album, "Kid A," which would change their trajectory completely. This performance highlights their willingness to reinvent themselves, demonstrating that they weren't afraid to experiment, even with tracks still in development.
