Live at the Astoria (released 1995) was a PAL-only VHS release of Radiohead's show at the London Astoria venue on 27 May 1994, notable mainly for its collection of songs that would not appear until the release of The Bends, ten months later. It is also Radiohead's only concert home video/DVD to date.
The version of "My Iron Lung" played at this gig is in fact the same one released as a single/EP and later found on The Bends, although Thom Yorke's vocals were overdubbed. Radiohead found they couldn't improve on the energetic live performance in the studio.
On November 21, 2005, a DVD of the show was released in the UK; it was released the next day in the U.S. and Canada.
