EP
Anyone Can Play Guitar
Anyone Can Play Guitar is a Radiohead EP released on Parlophone on 6 June 1994. It carries the name of a song from the band's debut album, Pablo Honey, and sits in the gap between that record and its follow-up, The Bends, which arrived in 1995.
For anyone tracing how Radiohead moved from their early alternative and indie rock beginnings towards the ambitions of OK Computer and Kid A, it marks a small stop along the way, a snapshot of the band between their first and second albums.
