This Eno-way of working is quite well explained by Eno himself: Brian Eno Interviewed on KPFA's Ode to Gravity, February 2nd, 1980 http://www.archive.org/download/BrianEno/BrianEnoOTGR1.473_vbr.mp3 http://www.archive.org/download/BrianEno/BrianEnoOTGR2.472_vbr.mp3 75 MB or so each. Description: Charles Amirkhanian and Brian Eno discuss Phonetic Poetry, how Brian writes his lyrics, and the spirit of inquisitiveness at KPFA Radio on Saturday February 2, 1980. Listen to some of Brian Enos pieces; After the Heat, Everything Merges With the Night, Another Green World, Spirits Drifting and sections of other pieces. Brian Eno also discusses the artist Peter Schmidt and their work on the Oblique Strategies Cards, being a producer, Process vs Product and looping. Reel I ends with some thoughts on Steve Reich and his music. Reel II starts with the history of the recording studio as a compositional tool;" and collaboration with David Byrne on album My Life in the Bush of Ghosts. Eno also talks about and listens to Elvis, The Supremes, Sly Stone, Lee Perry and Jimmy Hendrix.

I feel lucky to be working with some great musicians and I honestly think itbs the most progressive song-writing machine Ib ve been in next to the Small Faces.b Can't fail...
