 Radiohead Radiohead have paid tribute to the influential jazz musician Humphrey Lyttelton who died last Friday (April 25).
The band worked with the celebrated trumpeter on ‘Life in a Glasshouse’, the ultimate track on their 2001 album ‘Amnesiac.’
Speaking on the band’s Dead Air Space, Jonny Greenwood wrote: “We were all sorry to hear of Humphrey Lyttleton's death - he was an inspiring person to record with, and without his direction, we'd never have recorded/released 'Life in a Glasshouse'.

“So go and find 'Bad Penny Blues', and celebrate his life with some hot jazz......”
Lyttelton still toured well into his eighties and was the producer to the popular Radio show ‘Sorry I Haven’t Got A Clue.’ He died, aged 86, following surgery.
