Eno Third Uncle

Bob, I was introduced to Eno in 1979 when I moved to Austin. Just didn't hear him in the Midwest. So once I found his music, I would listen to anything by him or produced by him. I still remember being swept away by "Baby's on Fire" while three sheets into the wind. Still like his stuff, but he's in his elder statesman phase now.

Started listening to him in the early 70's . Had heard of him because of Roxy Music and his early solo work was fairly progressive which was my favorite kind at that time. And as he moved into the ambient I liked him even more.

R.E.M., "Beat a Drum", from Reveal (2001).

XTC - Senses Working Overtime

Hard to categorize this band has influences from the 60's 70's , new wave and punk. I think a way underrated group.

Enjoy Lou Reed but have to say he is an artist you just need to be in the mood for.

Unsuk Chin's Gougalōn.

I highly recommend this.
This work describes the composer's childhood memories of street vendors/performers.
Five movements.
I. Prologue – Dramatic Opening of the Curtain
II. Lament of the Bald Singer
III. The Grinning Fortune Teller with the False Teeth
IV. Episode between Bottles and Cans
V. Circulus vitiosos – Dance around the shacks
VI. The Hunt for the Quack's Plait

It is playful, exciting, magical, and I find surprises around every corner! My favorite is the third movement. It's not too long (3-4 mins) so I REALLY recommend you take a listen. Some of the other movements have things such as glass bottles!
