Hidden Easter Eggs in Famous Albums

"Easter Eggs" are hidden bonus features, usually found on dvd's in menus and such. In music, they're something more than just an unlisted track at the end of an album. Don't know most of these albums, but it's still pretty cool. I'll have to look for the Dream Theater ones. Enjoy!!

WOW, some interesting stuff there...

Oh the time and energy put forth to even realize/discover this stuff is staggering.

I hate that. Just list the stupid track.

cool. I'll have to check into that dream theater stuff too

Very cool, the Radiohead stuff sounds crazy. I always wondered why OK Computer sounded out of this world when I was 17.

The OK Computer/In Rainbows connection is really exaggerated there.

I haven't played that Tool cd in a while. Maybe time to try that out. If I'm not too lazy.

I don't have In Rainbows, but if works like the author says it does, it would be cool.

Dream Theater stuff????

The 3 songs from tool would be interesting to try out, also I would like to try the radio head stuff

It definitely sucks that you can't get most of this stuff now. I know on Ani Difranco's Revelling/Reckoning, after many songs it goes into a negative, like -43, and it's a little instrumental track. When it counts down to zero, the next track starts.

It's pretty cool, but there's no way to access those tracks otherwise.

how would you get them? would it have to be an older cd player?

I think iTunes has a feature that shows those hidden tracks, but don't quote me on that.

The Tool one of those is the only one I'm familiar with. I remember hearing the 'complete' version back when the album came out and it was pretty cool. Not something I'd listen to that often, mind.

Lots of bands have hidden stuff in the pregap, and they're not always limited to the first track, either. Progressive rock band Dream Theater hid instrumental intros on half the songs on their album Octavarium
