Free Music Review: Another Green World On A String
Hit: 5 Stars

An earlier reviewer referred to this album as "bubble-boy music". After I stopped laughing, I realized this WAS bubble-boy music. Eno had created a little cube-room in the middle of his N.Y. loft that was just big enough to house him and a few instruments. This musical shed was where he did lot of his composing.

This was the second Eno album that I bought, Eno & Cluster being the first. It was all very liberating to my Midwestern ears, and the effect was astonishing. It seemed at once to be a soundtrack for the subconscious mind. No prog-rock artist had displayed this much creativity and aural stimulation before. After this, there was no going back to Pink Floyd or Genesis.

My favorite moments here are some of the more enigmatic sounds featured, like the ripping screech that hangs above John Cale's viola on Sky Saw, and the air-raid siren sound of Sombre Reptiles. After this, the bubble had burst for a lot of synth players. This was not the sound of crushed velvet- it was a strangely beautiful alien landscape generated from the mind of Brian Eno, and it suggested many possibilities not yet considered. Genius is like that.

Eno first emerged as a member of Roxy Music, where the synthesizer player electronically "treated" the band's other instruments, the first indicator that the recording process was itself Eno's chosen instrument. His subsequent career has been one of the most provocative in pop, for not only did he devote himself to such obscure pursuits as "ambient music," but he produced vital albums by David Bowie, Talking Heads, and U2. Eno made a handful of relatively conventional pop albums in the 1970s, and Another Green World ranks with Before and After Science as his most enduring solo work. Another Green World finds Eno mixing distorted guitars (courtesy of Robert Fripp) with a variety of keyboards and exotic rhythms to create a meditative wash of sound that is nonetheless awash with colorful touches. Particularly appealing is the bubbling "St. Elmo's Fire," with a stunning guitar part by Fripp, and "I'll Come Running," in which Eno shows that even a dedicated experimentalist can have a soft heart. From the strange-but-true file, Phil Collins contributes drums and percussion to three tracks. --John Milward
This 1975 recording catches the ex-Roxy Music member in transition between art rock and his more progressive-ambient recordings. With an all-star cast including drummer Phil Collins, guitarist Robert Fripp, and John Cale on viola, Another Green World explores instrumental landscapes and aural textures not normally associated with rock recordings. Drawing on musical influences ranging from Weather Report to La Monte Young and Terry Riley, Brian Eno created layers of quirky sonic atmospheres and electronic tone poems. Using synthesizers, artificial percussion devices, and additional electronic accouterments, he found that the studio itself could become a useful instrument of creativity. Compositions like "Becalmed," "Sombre Reptiles," and the title cut all anticipate Eno's later ambient excursions. One of the many utterly essential Brian Eno albums. --Mitch Myers
