Brian Eno's Turntable Design

@falconquest + 1 - I'm a huge fan of Brian Eno's first 4 albums; not into the ambient stuff, but those first 4 are superb works of musical art.... Lots of other artists have appeared on Eno's albums, for sure - and don't forget one of his main partners in crime from Roxy, Phil Manzanera... 

@bdp24 - I was referring to this, both on the same post:

Hopefully the table is not as vapid, empty, and soulless as is Eno's "music".

No idea who Eno is but that makes me sure not to waste time finding out. 

You might want to brush up on your own reading 'compression'... 🤣

@larsman: Your exact original post (to which I was responding), not the amended one directly above: "Some guy says he has no idea who Eno is, but he's happy to describe his music as vapid, empty, and soulless....". Separating the single quote found in your original statement into two separate ones as you did above is not intellectually honest.

@clio09: And Dudley and I aren't alone. Robbie Robertson went to hear The VU when he arrived in New York, and was not impressed. Whatta ya think Dylan thought of Reed? I think I know ;-) .

@bdp24 - Some guy DID say that - look farther up the thread. I don't know how quoting what some guy said is 'not intellectually honest'. Somebody had no idea who Eno was yet complained about his music. I for one don't care one jot what Art Dudley or Robbie Robertson think about music; their tastes mean nothing to me. But Happy Holidays and Stay Safe!! ;-)  

@larsman: Or my taste for that matter! As my mama useta say: Each to his own, said the lady as she kissed the cow.

What irks me about guys like Eno taking up space in music publications, record store shelves, radio broadcasts, and enthusiast discussions is that artists more deserving (yes, in my opinion) are thereby afforded less of same. I know, life ain't fair. Too many talented but unknown songwriters, singers, and musicians spend their lives in abject poverty while a guy like Eno reaps undeserved (again, imo) rewards.
