Eno's contribution is interesting enough but the foreground trumpet is a hideous sound that should have been left off the mix. Like a violent wasp with a personal grudge spoiling another almost summer day.
I can't believe you just said that! [/b]
Hmm, maybe you're right. Not a violent wasp, not even with a personal grudge. But a wasp nevertheless. I'll try it again - I will know more what to expect. I usually give everything at least two listens. [/b]I think I know what you're saying guys!
The first time I heard that record (when it came out), I had several Eno albums in my collection.
But I didn't know who JH was.
At a first listen his playing sounded very nervous to me.
Almost in contradiction to the electronic ambience Eno provided for the album.
But later on, after hearing a few JH albums, I understood and felt the magic of his playing better.
