Re-up of my favorite Eno ambient album. It was missing a track earlier, and that has been rectified! Also, you can find Eno's AMBIENT I-IV HERE! -Ian!
An exquisite experiment, Apollo takes Brian Eno's spacescapes from albums like Another Green World and arranges them with some heavenly pedal steel guitar by Daniel Lanois. The recording engulfs the listener and captures the feel of space travel, weightlessness, and other sensations vividly. It's also perhaps Eno's warmest record ever. In the end, it comes off sounding not unlike a Grateful Dead experiment, with Lanois' lazy pedal steel sounding quite similar to Jerry Garcia's playing on David Crosby's "Laughing." An excellent nighttime vehicle.

ReplyDeleteThanks for this rip. My CD is beat...I lifted it from the public library for one and also over the many years since, I've listened to this CD more than any other in the collection (except for one). Many nites drifting off into dreamland to this one. The #1 most listened to CD was also used for that purpose...a Rykodisc CD of Hawaiian ocean waves to drown out the street noise outside my window. Loving your blog - you've impeccable taste.
