A very happy birthday to Brian Peter George St John le Baptiste de la Salle Eno, born on this date in 1948.
In addition to the dozens of art prints, books, lithographs, 412 digital releases, and other miscellanea I’ve acquired, I’ve successfully built a sizable library of most major releases issued in the vinyl format by the artist. My library comprises 49 of his best-loved works totaling 77 discs of content, including the highly sought-after
Music For Installations 9LP limited edition box set.
Also pictured is my library of thirteen books examining the mind and the art of Brian Eno including a copy of Eno’s own diary,
A Year With Swollen Appendices, as well as his
Oblique Strategies oracle deck and an autographed portrait. It was great fun compiling them all.
Thank you for permitting me to share my love for great music. Eno and his work are an unparalleled inspiration in my life.
