Biography

In the hysteria to find a new Silverchair, several major-label record companies decided that Radish, a Dallas-based heavy post-grunge trio led by 16-year old guitarist Ben Kweller, would be the next big thing. Kweller had been playing guitar and writing songs since the age of eight; when he was nine, he entered Billboard's songwriting contest and earned an honorable mention. Over the next four… Read more in Amazon's Radish Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Satisfied, May 25, 2002
By Pr0d1gE (Grand Forks, ND United States) - See all my reviews
I bought this title on a whim. I had heard a little of Ben Kwellers new album "SHA SHA" and desided to order it and this title to see what I thought.

I am glad that I got this title. The music is excellent and Ben Kwellers vocals are superb. The songs on this album will keep you rocking all day. I found it to be a superb driving cd.

Go get your copy today, and don't forget to check out Ben Kwellers new cd "SHA SHA"

5.0 out of 5 stars Radish is the coolest band to ever come out of Texas!, June 12, 1998
By A Customer
I bought the Radish CD after I listened to my friend talk nonstop about it for months. Luckily, it was well worth it. The songs are all great, especially "Little Pink Stars" and "Sugar Free", and the band is equally great in concert. What knocked me out the most is the ability of the lead singer/songwriter Ben Kweller. Now here's someone we'll be hearing about in years and years to come!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Work of Art, January 3, 2002
By Jade (Pensacola, FL) - See all my reviews
I bought this CD way back when it first came out because I adored "Little Pink Stars". When I got home and listened to the whole thing I just fell in love with Radish. This CD is something you can listen to at anytime and find whatever you're in the mood for. You can listen to songs like "Sugar Free", "Little Pink Stars", or "My Guitar" and totally rock out. Then you can turn it to something like "Apparition of Purity", "A Promise", or "Simple Sincerity" to kick back and relax. All and all, this is one of my favorite CD's. It's well worth the money. Buy it...NOW!(heehee)
