Reading the allmusic.com page about Brian Eno, I discover that this CD I'm listening to ("Here Come the Warm Jets") is Brian Eno's "first solo project". I also discover that it is probably of the genre called "prog rock".
Listening to the album, I discover that it's weird.
Intriguingly enough, however, Mom has shown me that Moby, of all people, shows clear Eno influences, despite a score of years separating them. She suggests that his parents may have had this album. As for music I've actually heard, though, the closest thing I can think of is some of the more outré Beatles tracks, although "Driving me backwards" is far stranger than "All the Lonely People" and "Come Together" are.
I guess that's why he's called "experimental". Because he is.
P.S. More than one track was playing as I typed this entry. This is a common occurrence – usually I put the last track before I hit [Spell check] in the Music field. This time, I put the track I liked best. The other track would have been "On Some Faraway Beach" from the same Eno album.
