Your fave Jonny Greenwood solo? Share it here!
That first solo is fantastic!
I feel there is a Radiohead period just around the corner ❤
I rub my wrist hard when going hard on electric which fucking weird. Because I never wrist slam on a old acoustic. I see why he wears a brace. Also glad you didn't die from your infection.
i am pretty sure that jonny could just wipe his ass over the strings and I would still eat it up
Banana co. There there. Just. Go to sleep. My iron lung. The tourist. Paranoid android. ????
Man. I know some folks would probably claim he's just playing random notes, but every time he freestyles he's doing it in the correct scales and rhythms. Radiohead just uses chords and scales that aren't too common in most popular music. There's no wrong notes. It's all deliberate and it's awesome.
His solos are Pure Energy. Period.
2:22 he turned his guitar into a regi pokemon
Weird solos or… "I'm bored".
all the best solos are played on guitars
Lmao. Sounds like a dog in the garden. Only Johnny could find and play that. 1:21
he look evil with guitar he look cute without guitar
Less notes but super hard to copy
What’s the first song?
The Go To Sleep clip, either the phone recording it was unable to pick up the rest of the band or it was edited to not include the other instruments, but Johnny Greenwood's playing on that track is some of the most inspired guitar work in the history of rock music.
Sometimes Im not sure Jonny can actually play the guitar.
Nice dream and Go Slowly both have really cool solos
He's got one the most unique feelings I know
Talented guy fck made his guitar sound like a zx spectrum loading
My little bro plays in a band and they are always telling him to face the crowd because like Johnny he tends to face the speakers and gets lost in the music and its like he forgets that hes got an audience. Johnny is a muscal genius and then add Toms lyrical genius and you get the best band of our generation. And to think i saw them many years ago at a little venue called The Market Tavern just after they released Anyone can Play Guitar. Knew they'd be big but not THIS big.❤
Johnny , thom, Radiohead, the Smile …. My life
Very expressive guitarrist a unique voice like issac brock, stephen malkmus etc
The Tourist
It’s like someone put Steve Howe in a microwave.
the guitar "solo" Jonny rips in the documentary, "Meeting People Is Easy" when he's on stage and the camera is looking up at him is one of the greatest sounds I've ever heard in my entire life! It sounds like a melodic plane landing
My favorite guitarist. Homie is a master of melodic modalities.
Go to sleep he’s just off in his own little world lol
My favorite guitarist ever!
He is a reluctant guitar hero. I love his vibe and he does it unconsciously. I just watched his Bending Hectic Live from Montreux solo…I’m not sure if I call his work soloing.. it’s transcendent. He has reimagined the role and the instrument he draws you in and it grooves in a strange way. Jimmy Page swung hard. Johnny ‘vibes’ for a lack of a better word while adding flourishes along with the whole band. That makes their music so unique and what a catalog. I constantly revisit finding new ideas that I missed. It’s in the dark corners where you find the light.
First one is straight up turkish wedding music
He plays guitar like it’s a saxophone.
It's a shame the album version of Go To Sleep cuts off so quickly. That experimental outro elevates the song.
If bizarre, you mean brilliant, then yes
Banana so is so underreted
I love Jonny's guitar solos. It's… well I don't want to say "punky" bc the songs aren't really punk. But the solos definitely carries a lot of edges to them
Love Radiohead but they really need a new lighting designer…
I can't understand what he is doing in Go To Sleep ????
