Radiohead’s Jonny Greenwood has discussed his time in the band in a chat with BBC 6 Music’s Matt Everitt. The rare interview, which airs this Sunday and follows Greenwood’s appearance on the Adam Buxton podcast this week, reflects on the band’s early days, their recording of A Moon Shaped Pool, the rejection of their Bond theme, and more. He also said the band rehearsed 120 songs—nearly every track they’ve put to tape—for their current tour. Read some highlights below, ahead of the interview’s broadcast at 8 a.m. Eastern this Sunday.
