Jack Johnson would put on Radiohead's Kid A for a hazy evening, he tells RollingStone.com, and on headphones for its many layers. Some of it is dark enough that he would follow it with early Bob Marley.
When he chose “The National Anthem” for a VH1 mix tape, he recalled first seeing the band at the Santa Barbara Bowl in June 2001, where they opened with it; by the end of the song he had moved 30 or 40 yards closer to the stage.
With Radiohead, they're reinventing music. It's totally innovative.
