Prove Yourself
Radiohead
Pablo Honey is the first studio album by English
alternative rock band Radiohead, first released in
early 1993. The album's title comes from a Jerky
Boys prank call skit in which the prank caller says,
"Pablo, honey? Please come to Florida!" to his
victim. This snippet is sampled by the band in the
song "How Do You?".
After a long dormancy while the members attended
university, the band On a Friday reconvened in the
early 1990s, becoming fixtures on the local Oxford
scene with a series of demo recordings and well
attended live gigs, finally signing with
EMI/Parlophone and changing their name to
Radiohead. The band's first official release, the Drill
EP, was produced by their managers Chris Hufford
and Bryce Edge, and sold poorly. For their debut
album the band sought the production skills of
Massachusetts-based Paul Kolderie and Sean
Slade, responsible for Dinosaur Jr. and Buffalo Tom
albums of which they were fans.
Several months in advance of the album, the band
came out with their debut single "Creep". According
to bassist Colin Greenwood, "Creep" had been
written by singer/rhythm guitarist Thom Yorke
sometime in the late 1980s, while he was at Exeter
University, and was shared with other members of
the band, who were mostly very enthusiastic, citing
the song as a reason to continue making music
together.
