Brian Eno
Brian Eno is something of a hero because of his wreck. The latest Eno is this YouTube interview.
Looking forward to listening to this. I never have been well acquainted with Eno’s music or the media personality he’s maintained. (For a long time my only dim awareness of him was as having been associated with Roxy Music, and I confusedly thought him somehow sharing in credit for Ferry’s ’80s hits.)
By coincidence, though, happen to have had him on the brain a little bit in the last couple of weeks. Discussion I was part of recalled the cute coinage he talks about in this snippet I came across and collected a few years ago — which I genuinely find appealing and would be happy to have more occasions for introducing awkwardly in conversation.

I don't agree with everything Eno says (obviously?) but he is Out There with his thoughts, which I appreciate. I wish I was more like him that way.
