Radioheadology

This week’s Twisted Groove I am celebrating the Radiohead record Kid A. In October 2000, Kid A had its 20th anniversary. In the early 2000s it was in frequent rotation on Twisted Groove. I feel this album was pivotal. So we celebrate that by playing a bunch of Radiohead and other related sounds.
