Description

From its release in 1975 to today, Another Green World has been heaped with accolades. At the time, Village Voice described it as the aural equivalent of a park on the moon and Rolling Stone called it a major triumph, an important record – and also a brilliant one, whilst recently Q dubbed it breathtakingly ahead of its time.  The album s music veers from the experimental sounds of Brian Eno s previous albums – based loosely around rock – to the more meditative, synth-oriented instrumental minimalism of his subsequent work. Produced by Eno and Rhett Davies, like his previous solo efforts, Eno had several guest musicians contribute to Another Green World: Robert Fripp, John Cale, Phil Collins and his fellow Brand X member Percy Jones. Unlike his previous albums, Eno worked on more solo material, including 6 songs in which he plays all of the instruments himself; In Dark Trees, The Big Ship, Another Green World, Sombre Reptiles, Little Fishes and Spirits Drifting.
