  • Celine Dion's Let's Talk About Love

    A Journey to the End of Taste

    de Carl Wilson ...
    Series series 33 1/3

  • Brian Eno's Another Green World

    de Geeta Dayal ...
    Series series 33 1/3
    The serene, delicate songs on Another Green World sound practically meditative, but the album itself was an experiment fueled by adrenaline, panic, and pure faith. It was the first Brian Eno album to be composed almost completely in the confines of a recording studio, over a scant few months in the summer of 1975. The album was a proof of concept for Eno's budding ideas of "the studio as musical ... Leer más
