Video for 'King's Lead Hat' = Brilliant (eno content)

[Bassomatic]

Can't believe I never came across this gem (or sussed out the anagram in the title):

[Bassomatic]

And more...who knew?

[Bassomatic]

Yeah, posted 'Kurt's' over on a bass lines thread in the bass ghetto.

[kingsleyd]

Cool! And yeah, I never caught the anagram till you mentioned it here. Doh!!!

This and Another Green World were/are very important records in my library. Thanks, basso!

[Bassomatic]

Yeah, close call between AGW and BaAS for prominence in my Eno collection.

My favorite Eno record is probably Taking Tiger Mountain, but I like BaAS as well.

Hell of a resume for my kind of abstract music vid.

TTM(bS) was the slowest to grow on me, but is definitely my fave in some ways. Punky as hell, with tremendous sounds and treatments and *songs*.

Not just Eno's early solo stuff but the first two Roxy Music albums too. I heard "Virginia Plain" on NPR today. Groundbreaking music.

And, of course, Eno and Manzanera both appear on the 801 and Quiet Sun records, though I don't know how much Eno was involved on Quiet Sun's Mainstream.

The only thing I have is the new reissue of Mainstream, with extra tracks and book. I like it a lot. It is more straight up proggy than anything else mentioned in this thread. Most of the songs are instrumental.

Here are two representative examples:
