TAKING TIGER MOUNTAIN (BY STRATEGY)

This was the first song-oriented Eno album I bought, and when I bought this album I listened to it almost compulsively, so it has a special place in my heart. The songs here are all wonderfully crafted and memorable, including the classic song of my screennamesake. Often you'll find Eno combining interesting noises and effects with pop songs, which is something that I love. Even my least favorite song here("The True Wheel") is fairly enjoyable and unique. There isn't any real ambience(other than, arguably, the title track) on this record, unlike Another Green World, so don't buy it expecting anything but fairly accesible, yet quirkly songs.
