JONNY GREENWOOD IS THE CONTROLLER

"Jonny Greenwood is The Controller" is a compilation album by Jonny Greenwood, lead guitarist of Radiohead. The album culls Greenwood's favorite reggae and dub songs from the vaults of Trojan Records, in honor of the label's 40th anniversary. Released on March of 2007, it coincides with Trojan's Artist Jukebox Series in Which DJ Spooky and Don Letts have already contributed. A long fan of reggae , Jonny was given access to the entire Trojan catalogue of which he chose 17 songs.I must say, this is one of the best Trojan compilation that I have listened to so far. Really Potent.
