New Albums: Brian Eno's 'Small Craft on a Milk Sea' + Bryan Ferry's 'Olympia'




Roxy Music founding members Brian Eno & Bryan Ferry can both lay claim to releasing solo endeavours before the end of 2010. Byran Ferry's Olympia was released on the 25 October while Eno's 'Small Craft on a Milk Sea' will be released a month later. Synonymous with partying and younger models the artwork of Ferry's Olympia is none other than a photo of an overexposed Kate Moss wearing little more than a silk sheet and diamonds.


His album has been slated by the Guardian Online who described it as little more than "background music" and while Brian Eno's 'Small Craft on a Milk Sea' garners a more positive praise it's still short of victorious.


For something a little more enjoyable check out the 1970s video for 'Berlin Horse'. The visuals were created by Malcolm Le Grice while the sound loop was mastered by Brian Eno.

My photo
I am more than prone to monologues; however, this is solely due to the manner in which they compliment a witty anecdote and their ability to resemble concrete evidence when it is so obviously lacking. I often wish I could emulate that aloof character who coolly stands in the corner smiling mysteriously as if she has a secret. However, I fear resisting the temptation to involve myself in other people’s conflicts and responding through body language rather than verbose banter may come across as contrived and arrogant. And, I am not willing to take that chance.

Ye Faithful
