Kid Amnesiac

In response to yesterday's tweets, Phil commented:

I have to take exception to Amnesiac being cut from your listening sessions. I am by no means a Radiohead fanatic. I probably don't deserve to give this level of input but I have to say that, maybe as a collection of songs, Amnesiac isn't amongst the best. However, the songs are similar in quality to Kid A. As I understand it, they were written and recorded at the same time and they could've been released as a double-album with Kid A.

So my question to you is: if Kid A-mnesiac had been released as a double, would you have listened to the whole thing?

I'm not a fanatic either; regardless I'm glad to have your input.

I've always felt like Amnesiac was the Kid A b-sides. Kid A is tight, focused, near perfection; Amnesiac is the leftovers. Maybe you could resequence and make a nice double album of the two, but if Kid A was disc 1 and Amnesiac was disc 2, I don't think it would work as one album.
