Musician MARCH 1996 - by Thomas Anderson
ENO/WOBBLE: SPINNER
As Brian Eno recently declaimed in the pages of this magazine that he wants his music to be sensual, these tracks with former PiL bassist Jah Wobble may come as a surprise. Composed as soundtrack music, these tone poems, anchored in place by Wobble's bass, are as obtuse as anything on Another Green World and as icy as the Apollo soundtracks. The electronic overtones on Where We Lived are an interesting innovation, but other than that, it's business as usual. Which isn't bad - Eno fans know exactly what titles like Garden Recalled and Space Diary 1 ought to sound like, and they, at least, won't be disappointed.
