Bravo! Awesome sift!
Eno is a musical genius. I first found an interest in his his production work with Bowie , Talking Heads and U2 on their best album "The Unforgettable Fire". The tones and soundscapes on that album really moved me in ways I can not fully describe in words. I came across "ambient music"(low-volume music designed to modify one's perception of a surrounding environment.) back in the day but it did not hit me until I was searching for music for bipolar therapy and" Music for Airports" just floored me. It is a piece of art. Ambient/Experimental music is my #2 favorite style of music, Rock is still king but slowly losing it's throne.

Wow I said a lot for once. I will stop.

Great stuff!
