Page "Another Green World" Paragraph 5

Like his previous two solo efforts, Eno had several guest musicians contributing to Another Green World.

Unlike his previous albums, Eno worked on more solo material with seven songs on the album have Eno playing all the instruments himself, including electronic and nonelectronic keyboards, guitars, and percussion.

Among the guest musicians was Phil Collins, who played drums on Tiger Mountain and got along with Eno, which led to calling him and fellow Brand X bandmate Percy Jones to play on Another Green World.

On recording the album, Collins recalled " gave us all a bit of paper, and we made lists from one to 15.

Eno said ' No. 2, we all play a G ; No. 7 we all play a C sharp '; an so on.

So it was like painting by numbers ... used to love me and Percy ; we'd go in and run through our dictionary licks and he'd record them and make a loop of them.

" Robert Fripp, who worked with Eno on ( No Pussyfooting ) and Here Come the Warm Jets, performed the solo on " St. Elmo's Fire ".

Eno asked Fripp to improvise a lightning-fast guitar solo that would imitate an electrical charge between two poles on a Wimshurst high voltage generator.
