Publisher's Note
Provocateur, cult figure, cerebral rocj star, and studio experimentalist, Brian Eno has greatly influenced an encyclopedia of styles--from art rock to punk to world music to techno to ambient music. A founding member of Roxy Music, he went on to work as a solo artist and a producer/collaborator with U2, Talking Heads, David Bowie, Sting, Bono, and others. This diary covers four recording projects in the evolution.

Industry Reviews
"I've never succeeded in keeping a diary past the 6th of January before (so I know a lot about the early Januaries of my life), but at the end of 1994 I made a resolution to keep one for 1995. The diary covers four recording projects caught at different times in their evolution. The project with James (whose "Laid" and "Wah Wah" albums I'd produced). The David Bowie project which became "Outside." The "Passengers" record, a collaboration between the members of U2 and myself with occasional visitors. And "Spinner," which was based on the soundtrack I'd made for Derek Jarman's last film. Of course, a lot of these entries were written after a day's work. The good days produce a glow of congratulation, the bad ones a frenzy of recrimination. As a result some of my best friends--those people whom I work most closely--occasionally come in for my grumblings. I assume they'll ignore them as usual."
