Few
record collections remain untouched by Brian Eno’s aesthetic DNA: from
ambient soundscapes and world-music hybrids to cut ’n’ paste vocal
samples and amniotic chill-out rooms, Eno is all around us. A sonic
alchemist to the stars, his address book is a veritable who’s who of
rock and his credit adorns an outrageous number of albums. Tellingly,
Eno’s work with Roxy Music, David Bowie, Talking Heads, Devo, U2, and
Coldplay has coincided with those artists producing their most
critically revered work. On Some Faraway Beach is
the first serious, critical examination of the life and times of Brian
Eno. David Sheppard has interviewed key collaborators like David Byrne,
Robert Wyatt, John Cale, Bryan Ferry, and Gavin Bryars. But more
importantly, Sheppard has had considerable assistance and input from
Brian and Anthea Eno themselves, while retaining an edge and
independence in keeping with his subject.
