Good stuff the early years. You won’t be disapointed from Mich.

I am interested in this CD for the reason that the musicians went on to become influential in the British popular music scene for the decade of the 1970’s. Sketches of famous artists are important sources for understanding of how their art was crafted. A well-crafted final performance seldom offers a view of the development process. Fortunately, by some fluke of commercialism, we are able to listen, and learn. Many bands of 1972 would have been quite satisfied to be credited for a project such as this. Yet, this is merely a seminal work for Bryan Ferry (v,p), Phil Manzanera (g), Andrew Mackay (oboe / sax), Paul Thomson (d), Peter Sinfield (producer) and of course, Brian Eno (?!?!) ;D. If you are interested in early developmental pieces from musicians who would redefine popular music, this CD will be interesting to you.
