(1974) | Another Green World
(1975) | Discreet Music
(1975) | Another Green World is an album by experimental musician Brian Eno, released in November of 1975 (see 1975 in music). Critically acclaimed, the album marks a fundamental shift in Eno's musical expression, farther away from conventional song structure than ever before, and increasingly bizarre and iconoclastic. This however inevitably made the album less commercial, and to some listeners less accessible, than his previous work. This album has nine instrumental tracks to only five with vocals. Many of these tracks laid the foundation for Enos future ambient career. Much of the album is accented by a complex and often chaotic array of sounds mixed in the far background. Though the album begins with a harsh, aggressive piece titled Sky Saw, most of this album has a gentler approach than Enos previous works. The atmosphere of this album is an unusual combination of whimsical humor and a kind of melancholy serenity, sometimes on the same track. Zawinul/Lava is an instrumental piece with piano, fretless bass and percussion. It reflects a sparse, airy atmosphere similar to Enos future album Ambient #1/Music for Airports.
