Brian Eno : Here Come The Warm Jets
First released in January 1974, Here Come The Warm Jets was Brian Eno's debut solo release following his departure from Roxy Music. The album draws on both his glam and prog roots but its experimental nature also made it quite unlike anything that'd ever come before. It was also to prove a huge influence on the best of the British punk and post-punk bands that followed it.

Brian Eno : Another Green World
From November 1975, Another Green World represents the bridge between Brian's ground-breaking pop career and his early experiments with ambient music. This time around he was ably assisted in the studio by Robert Fripp from King Crimson, Phil Collins and Percy Jones from Brand X and, on viola, The Velvet Underground's John Cale. The album features five vocal and nine instrumental songs including the title track which will be known to many as the theme to the BBC arts programme, Arena.
