It's been a while since I've posted anything on the long running Monday Long Song thread. Let me put that right today. In 1983 Brian Eno and his brother Roger joined forces with producer Danial Lanois and came up with a spectacular soundtrack album to commemorate a planned film celebrating the Apollo space programme. 'An Ending' formed part of a suite of music that lives not only on that album but has gone on and found a new lease of life in other films including Traffic and Trainspotting; though never in this format. Weighing in at 57 minutes, I give you Monday's Long Song.
Brian Eno & Roger Eno - An Ending (1983)
...
Whilst we're on the subject of Brian Peter George St. John le Baptiste de la Salle Eno, who would like to see one of his his sexy Eno signature limited edition turntables? Looks expensive, I hear you say. Well, only if you think £20K is a bit steep. I actually think it's a bargain (if I were to subsist on baked beans out of a tin for the rest of my life. And live in my car).

An Ending, lovely stuff. Especially love "Ascent".
ReplyDeleteThe older I get the more Eno's music resonates with me. (I have a feeling I may not be the only one.)
