I hate it how they only showed Eno a couple of times.

Do you believe Brian was quite influential?

Very much so, though it depends on what kind of music we’re talking about. It’s uncommon for someone to have such a large influence on both rock music and electronic music. I could be biased because I’m an ambient musician and a producer, which are the areas he’s had his most influence.

I have always thought of George Martin as a monster when it came to producing music. To me he has been the pinnacle of that role - at least, in a post 1950’s world.

Eno’s early influence with Roxy Music and his collaboration with Robert Fripp made him a standout in certain circles. I always thought of him as more an underground music hero, at least in the States.
