A beautiful, relaxing example of Eno's ambient style, yet one that spawned legions of horrible New Age composers.

There is not really much to say about the album. It is a series of gentle, minimalist piano pieces with just the barest hint of synthesizers that lull the listener into a passive, dreamlike state. The piano is pretty and all, but I think the real star here is the production, and that is what separates this release from its imitators.

As a Producer, Eno creates this magnificent sense of space. You can practically hear the music breathe as the sustained tones shimmer off into the distance. A virtual playground for the imagination, and a wonderful experience if you're into that kind of thing.
