“Arguably the most quietly influential of all his works” according to the
BBC, this conceptual record was intended as a soundtrack for imaginary films,
with excerpts later featuring in movies by directors including John Woo and
Derek Jarman. The album is a loose
compilation of material, composed of short tracks ranging from one-and-a-half
minutes to just over four, making it the antithesis of the long, ambient pieces
he later became known for. The compositional styles and equipment used also
carried over onto Eno's work David Bowie's 1977 classic ‘Low’.
