He mainly plays electric guitar, acoustic guitar and piano, but has also played drums and bass guitar (notably during the "Kid A" and "Amnesiac" Radiohead sessions).

Maybe under prog-related, though The Eraser isn't really proggy at all. I'd say the solo album by Radiohead's guitarist Jonny Greenwood is a far more suitable addition. |

I love The Eraser, but I don't think it belongs here. -------------
