anybody else feel that he brings out the beauty of the undistorted sound of single notes on the guitar?

e.g
my iron lung, planet telex (at the very end), there there

solos or precise fill-ins hes a pure genius..and i swear i hardly use that word.

    on "you never wash up after yourself" his tone is so dry and clean its just perfect. One of the shortest sweetest song I've ever heard. I gotta admit I love his dirties too though, when he just kicks in.

    One of Englands finest guitarists.

    oh yeah when he kicks in heavy he does it great as well no doubt..but a lot of times he kicks in really soft and gentle and precise..melts me away...and thom yorke's dreamy fragile voice.. ahhh...

    from an objective standpoint id HONESTLY say they are the greatest band ever to have existed.

    im speaking about musical creativity..maybe they dont rock and get us pumped as much as pj, or had as much influence as the beatles but songwriting wise..i just havent heard anything that matches up to radiohead..
    thats a bold statement i kno..perhaps they havent come up with enough albums..and thats probably the single reason this may yet turn out to be false..

    in the meantime tho...THE BENDS!!

    I really think that Jonny Greenwood is a musical genius in the literal sense. He's driven creatively and seems haunted by his craft. When I'm listening to Radiohead, even after all these years, I still get surprised by what he contributes to the music.
