Topic: Brian Eno Poll Posted: August 07 2008 at 16:59 |
Who had Brian Eno been listening to when he excitedly called a friend and said he had just heard the future in music. This is not a joke, nor is this poll sarcastic in any sense. I will reveal the answer after enough people have voted. Good Luck.

I believe Miles Davis' incredible "He Loved Him Madly" was a huge influence on Brian Eno... so my vote goes to him.
P.S. Miles Davis IS the future of music!

After seeing him talking about RHCP Give it Away video as great are somewhere I lost all confidence in him. Flower Kings? Hogarth era Marillion? The Archies?

PIL , only because at one specific point in time , they were touted as the next big thing. With Jah Wobble on bass, maybe but John Lydon got bored!

I never post anything anywhere without doing more than basic research, often in depth.

I should know this, but I'm going to guess Talking Heads.
