It was here that Eno first began to experiment with abstract soundscapes, to employ a greater spatial element and the ethereal synthesizer effects that presaged an entire movement of ambient music. While most of the tracks are instrumental, the numbers that feature Eno's peculiar, affectless voice and free-associative lyrics seem to blend into the fabric of the album. Superior guest musicians include John Cale, Robert Fripp and Phil Collins. From the brain-bending riff of "Sky-Saw, through the elemental creeping of "Sombre Reptiles;" from Robert Fripp's looping solos in "St. Elmo's Fire" to the dark swirl of "Spirits Drifting," ANOTHER GREEN ...
| | Brian Eno Here Come The Warm Jets CD (1974) Remastered
Music For Films
$11.69 
On two quite different pieces--the closing title-track and "On Some Faraway Beach"--a different side of Eno was laid bare. These mid-tempo, mostly wordless sound-paintings construct melancholy scenes out of grandiose, manipulated sounds, and gesture toward Eno's role as the father of ambient music. Savage guitar lines, erratic synthesizer, and pounding drums (Robert Fripp, Paul Thompson, and Phil Manzanera are among the excellent personnel) provide exciting textures on a collection as beguiling as it is invigorating. With WARM JETS Eno proved he was ready to jump off the edge of the pop universe, and to drag everyone else with him.
By the time Brian Eno left Roxy Music and came to record this masterpiece of a debut in 1973, he already held in his grasp the raw tools to revolutionize popular music. HERE COME THE WARM JETS is bathed in his singular pop-with-a-wink aesthetic and free-associative imagination. Whether on the four-on-the-floor pre-punk stomp of "Needles In The Camel's Eye" or the Spector/VU trad-rock-ism of "Cindy Tells Me," the album displays an unabashed love of quirky, catchy pop. Macabre lyrics often subvert the melodies, a feature fully expressed on "Baby's On Fire," where the singer's cheeky vocals exaggerate ...
| | Brian Eno Before And After Science CD (1977) Remastered
Music For Films
$11.69
Eno's last glam-pop album before devoting himself entirely to ambient experimentation, BEFORE AND AFTER SCIENCE showcases two sides of Eno's musical personality. The first half of the disc is characterized by floppy, pop-tinged romps reminiscent of his earlier albums (and heralding later Eno-piloted projects such as the Talking Heads' SPEAKING IN TONGUES). Tunes like "Backwater" and "King's Lead Hat" (a song whose lyrics are reputedly about the Talking Heads, the title an anagram of the band's name) feature bouncy beats and keyboards, silly, riddle-like lyrics and Eno's Muppet-ish vocals. The second half is considerably more subdued: the tender, airy feeling of tracks like "Julie With" and "Spider and ...
| | Brian Eno Ambient 1: Music For Airports CD (1978)
Music For Films
$11.45 
Considered by many to be the ultimate ambient album, MUSIC FOR AIRPORTS is so delicate, lovely, and aesthetically moving, that it has been known to give rise to sensations of flying, being enfolded in warm blankets, or watching a vision take place in the heavens. If this sounds like an overstatement, you haven't heard the album. A four part "piece" performed entirely on synthesizer and piano, Eno's composition finds a referent more in abstract painting (one visualizes bold blocks of color in warm hues) than in any musical genre.
Resonant synthesizer notes resembling bells or voices are interwoven with bits of melody, overlapping each other, and fading in and out of an architectural silence. Essentially, it's the kind of music one might hear in heaven, ...
| | Brian Eno Apollo Atmospheres & Soundtracks CD (1983) Remastered; Digipak
Music For Films
$11.69
An invitation to score Al Reinert's film of the Apollo Mission's lunar landing provided Eno with the "opportunity to explore the feelings of space travel." APOLLO is "one small stepŕ" for Eno, here working both within and beyond the conceptual confines of his Ambient series. The disc's dozen gorgeous, evocative miniatures see Eno's first collaborative work with producer/guitarist Daniel Lanois--a collaborator who would prove central to many of Eno's subsequent projects--and with his own brother, pianist Roger Eno.
APOLLO contains some of Eno's most carefully crafted melodies, wrought impressionistically in limpid, quicksilver synth and gilded with Lanois's liquid guitar lines. ...
| | Brian Eno Thursday Afternoon CD (1985) Remastered; Digipak
Music For Films
$12.49
The whole of THURSDAY AFTERNOON consists of one 61-minute track, itself an edit of a much longer piece designed as the accompaniment for a video piece by artist Russell Mills. In the tradition of 19th century program music, THURSDAY AFTERNOON attempts to musically evoke the feelings of a specific experience. Amusingly, the experience being evoked is the tedium of a nondescript, unexciting day. While it's perhaps up to ...

Music For Films
$9.35 
An experimental group with a musical vision wide enough to encompass artists like the avant-garde musician John Zorn, the eccentric rock guitarist known as Buckethead, and the outrageous funk bassist Bootsy Collins, on this early-1990s release Praxis specializes in semi-instrumental controlled sonic chaos, which swings wildly between the tortured guitar and vocal howls ...

$6.09
Even before his passing in 2003, there was already an enormous amount of Johnny Cash compilations in circulation, and the amount of new releases only intensified afterward. Case in point, the 2005 double-disc set Johnny Cash Collection. The 25-track audio portion is quite a dandy, as quite a few early Cash classics are represented, including "I Walk the Line," "Folsom Prison Blues," "Big River," "Hey Porter," and "Get Rhythm." It is this early era of Cash's recording career that many longtime fans point to as his finest, as "the Man in Black" played a major part in popularizing ...

Music For Films
$15.79
The sign on the club door says “rock’n’roll tonight” and if you don’t like it, come back tomorrow for country night, right? Wrong. Who says a modern day rock’n’roll band can’t sound like tomorrow’s country music or that an indie pop band can’t swing? Who says a trio from Germany can’t play Americana? The TriSonics actually thrive on crossing genre borders. Listen to their second album “Welcome to the Club” and you’ll find Rockabilly (“These Walls”), Country (the title track), Swing (“Should’ve Known Better”), and even a homage to Britpop (“Lyla”) as well as a cover of a Blondie hit (“Call Me”) from 1980. You can also hear a real smoocher (“I Believe in Love”), a bombastic bit of jungle music (“Ooh I Like That Voodoo”), a track that opens with the sound of a shovel hitting dirt (“Digging a Hole”), a ballad (“In My Arms”) as well as a song with a grand gypsy finale. And the final track manages to pull all these elements into one song.The TriSonics teamed ...
