2 stars This debut album from "Eno" does feature a lot of great musicians (on top of himself of course): MacKay, Fripp, Manzarena, Wetton and Spedding are the ones who really "speak" to me. But after having listened to this first solo release, I am absolutely NOT charmed. AT ALL.

This album has nothing to do with progressive electronics as far as I am concerned. You should not look for great soundscapes à la "Tangerine Dream" or "Klaus Schulze". Far from it! This album is much more of an experimental album. No vibrant melodic parts, no magical synths sections at all.

I am sorry but to my feeling, this album is just below average music. Whatever the category you would like this album to fit it in. I can't find any prog one though. This is no original music; this is no creative music either: this is just a long musical way to nowhere.

Two stars, no more. When I listened to this, I really wondered why he left Roxy. Anyway, he must know I guess?
