Eno’s third album of 1975 was a challenging work of experimental pop, informed by his contiguous experiments in ambient sound. More instrumental than not, the pieces on Another Green World display the origins of a music which Eno would bring to fruition through his Berlin collaborations with David Bowie the following year. Another milestone from Eno’s golden decade as the leading innovator in popular music.
