The Pearl by Budd & Eno
If James Brown is the godfather of soul then Brian Eno is the god of ambience. Brian Eno has also become the default spokesperson and the steward of all things ambient. Eno began his career with the art rock band Roxy Music. He left Roxy Music in the early ‘70s and began recording solo pop albums, Taking Tiger Mountain (by Strategy). With his 1975 release Another Green World Eno departed the world of wacky pop and entered the world of ambient pop. Eno's songs were becoming more spacey and tone-oriented; his lyrics were becoming more sparse and image-laden. In 1978, Brian Eno made a CD without drums, lyrics, or anything other than a synthesizer and a sampler. That CD has become the ambient CD by which all others are judged. Ambient 1/Music for Airports
Brian Eno's Music for Airports is virtually ubiquitous - it's been used everywhere from tv ads to interval musak. For me the music works best unadulterated brian eno
