The exceptionally talented Rock artist Brian Eno has released him CD entitled Before and After Science. I am very confident and happy to announce that I believe Brian Eno fans, and Rock fans alike will be pleased with this one. With the release of Before and After Science Brian Eno’s artistic excellence is on full display as Eno has once again delivered a brilliant collection of tracks that could very well be him best work to date.
Refreshingly, this was one of those CDs I was able to just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.
Rock music fans will recognize some of the well known contributors on the project including Jaki Liebezeit and Percy Jones plus a few other notables as well.
Overall Before and After Science is outstanding from beginning to end. One of those CDs that after a few listens the songs are just etched into your memory. A must have for the Rock fan. Really sensational from beginning to end.
While this entire album is outstanding some of my favorites are track 1 – No One Receiving, track 3 – Kurt’s Rejoinder, and track 9 – Through Hollow Lands
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 10 – Spider And I. Good stuff!
