You And Whose Arabica: Radiohead to sign Starbucks deal?
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver March 28th, 2007
and Rob Webb

The wildest rumour on the world wide web this day is that Radiohead are thinking about signing a deal with Hear Music, the label owned and managed by the the powers behind the Starbucks coffee chain.

Paul McCartney is the label's current high-profile (and only) artist, but the addition of Radiohead would obviously alert a whole other generation to Hear Music. The rumours regarding their signing on the line, or not, come from the New York Daily News.

Buzznet reports that Starbucks officials recently met the Oxford-based five-piece in a London studio to talk business. Me, I'm feeling 'Let Down'. A little.

Of course, 'I Might Be Wrong'. Best to be 'Optimistic'. Et cetera.
