Brian Eno “Another Green World” (1975)

Another Green World is a mix between the instrumental ambient music Eno was making at the time, and the relatively more structured pop/rock songs he had released on albums like Here Come the Warm Jets.  Somehow, the combination works even better than either of individual elements does on their own, as this is his best album.  More than anything, Another Green World is about atmosphere.  In that regard, it’s dreamy soundscapes remind me of Miles’ In a Silent Way. –Lucas

    It is a little like "A Silent Way"... somehow after I hear it, it's like I missed it, like it activates your mind so much that you go into your own world and sort of forget you're even listening. But then you put it on again and again. In my book, Eno can pretty much do no wrong. Diggin' on these old album reviews.
