I honestly don’t have a clue how to do this one right. Brian Eno. That should say it all? Problem is, it doesn’t. Especially to the younger audiences. The VH1 and MTV greatest lists never mention Brian Eno. You don’t see kids getting blisters trying to emulate Eno riffs. You don’t see classical performers comparing Eno keyboards to the likes of Bach or Beethoven. You don’t see Eddie Vedder praising Brian Eno. Hell, you don’t even see Alicia Keyes praising Brian Eno. All of them should. Here’s just a little list of Eno’s contributions that I personally enjoy a lot.
| David Bowie | Sound and Vision, Breaking Glass | |
| David Bowie | ‘Heroes’ is possibly my all time fave. | |
| Devo | Whip It, Mongoloid | |
| Talking Heads | Take Me to The River | |
| Talking Heads | Life During Wartime, Heaven | |
| Talking Heads | Once in a Lifetime | |
| U2 | Pride | |
| U2 | Where the Streets Have No Name, I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Waiting For, With or Without You, Bullet The Blue Sky | |
| U2 | Zoo Station, Who’s Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses, Mysterious Ways, One | |
| Peter Gabriel | Steam | |
| U2 | Numb, Lemon | |
| U2 | Beautiful Day | |
| About Everything John Cale ever did. | John Cale |
The list goes on and on for practically eternity. Eno seemed to zone in on the bands I liked best. And, they usually came out with a classic as the result.
Here’s some of my Mooned Eno’s:
