On August 25, Radiohead's Kid A (2000), Amnesiac (2001), and Hail To The Thief (2003) will be released by Capitol/EMI in expanded "Collectors Edition" and limited "Special Collectors Edition" packages. Each "Collectors Edition" includes the original album plus a second CD of rarities, including radio sessions and live recordings. Each "Special Collectors Edition," in deluxe, lift-top box packaging, includes both audio discs and adds a DVD with various video clips, as well as a series of postcards.

Kid A's "Collectors Edition" features the original album on disc one, and on disc two, rare concert recordings, a session recorded for BBC Radio One in 2000, and live recordings from Canal+ Studios. The "Special Collectors Edition" DVD adds three performances from the band's June 2001 appearance on "Later... With Jools Holland."

Amnesiac's "Collectors Edition" features the original album on disc one, and on disc two, rare concert recordings and tracks recorded live at Canal+ Studios in 2001. The "Special Collectors Edition" DVD adds four promotional music videos, two 2001 performances for "Top Of The Pops," and four performances from the band's June 2001 appearance on "Later... with Jools Holland."

Hail To The Thief's "Collectors Edition" features the original album on disc one, and on disc two, EPs with rarities and live recordings, as well as a May 2003 recording for the "Jo Whiley Show." The "Special Collectors Edition" DVD adds four promotional music videos, a live performance at the Belfort Festival and a May 2003 TV performance from "Later... with Jools Holland."

Radiohead's first three albums, Pablo Honey (1993), The Bends (1995) and OK Computer (1997), were released in "Collectors Edition" and limited "Special Collectors Edition" packages on March 24. In April, Capitol/EMI reissued 12 Radiohead EPs on 180-gram vinyl as part of the popular "From The Capitol Vaults" high-quality vinyl series.
