MUSIC DISPATCH: RADIOHEAD’S ‘OK COMPUTER’ TO BE INCLUDED IN THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS
Radiohead’s OK Computer is being included in the Library of Congress for it’s cultural significance. Matt Barton, curator of the Library of Congress, “I see it as part of a certain ongoing phenomenon in rock music that maybe begins with The Velvet Underground but also The Doors, who are on the registry this year. Pop music is not entirely positive in its outlook, shall we say. I think we can say that OK Computer really sums a lot of that up.” Also among this year’s 25 entrees into the registry was Ben E. King’s “Stand By Me”, The Righteous Brothers’ “You’ve Lost That Loving Feelin'”, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, Steve Martin’s A Wild and Crazy Guy, Sesame Street’s All-Time Platinum Favorites, and Joan Baez’s self-titled 1960 album.
