By ANIFriday, June 25, 2010
LONDON - Radiohead band has named the Greatest Glastonbury Headliner Of All Time in an online survey.
The rockers - popular for songs such as ‘High And Dry,’ ‘Paranoid Android’ and ‘Karma Police’ - left behind some of the greatest names in music, including Sir Paul McCartney’s famous set in 2004, Jay-Z’s controversial turn in 2008 and Blur’s triumphant reunion last year.
The band’s headline performance in 1997 coincided with the release of their third album, OK Computer. The album has sold around 4.5 million copies till date and is repeatedly voted one of the greatest albums of all time.
The poll was conducted by music video website www.muzu.tv.
“Glastonbury is famous for its legendary headliners and Radiohead’s 1997 performance secured their place in festival history. With a typically eclectic mix of acts confirmed for this year’s festival, ranging from Snoop Dogg to Stevie Wonder, festival fans are in for a treat,” the Mirror quoted Graeme Slattery, of Muzu, as saying.
