My Life in the Bush of Ghosts is a 1981 album by Brian Eno and David Byrne, titled after Amos Tutuola’s 1954 novel of the same name. The album was re-released in expanded form in 2006.

Receiving strong reviews upon its release, My Life is now regarded as a high point in the discographies of Eno and Byrne.

In a 1985 interview, Kate Bush stated the album “left a very big mark on popular music,” while critic John Bush describes it as “[a] pioneering work for countless styles connected to electronics, ambience, and Third World music.”

Byrne and Eno worked on creating the album – a mix of electronic and Gospel music – throughout 2007 and early 2008 over the e-mail and have used word-of-mouth and Internet sales to market the music.

Brian Eno – Some Great Albums! (256 kbps)

Brian Eno – 7 Great Albums! (256 kbps)

Some amazing music from Mr. Brian Peter George St. John le Baptiste de la Salle Eno!

Brian Eno (born on 15 May 1948, in Woodbridge, Suffolk, England), with full name Brian Peter George St. John le Baptiste de la Salle Eno , is an English electronic musician, music theorist and record producer. As a solo artist, he is best known as the father of modern ambient music.

With an art school background and inspiration from minimalism, Eno first came to prominence as the keyboard and synthesizer player of the 1970s glam and art rock band Roxy Music.

After leaving the group, Eno recorded four highly idiosyncratic and original rock albums, before turning to more abstract soundscapes on records such as Discreet Music (1975) and Ambient Music for Airports (1978).

Since then he has made dozens of albums, many with similarly minded collaborators such as Harold Budd, Cluster, John Cale, David Byrne and Robert Fripp.

Eno also became involved in pop music collaborations beginning in the late 1970s, joining David Bowie on his avant-garde Berlin Trilogy and helping to popularise the band Devo and the punk rock-influenced “No Wave” scene.

Eno is also notable for introducing the concepts of chance music to pop and rock and roll. Eno’s production and songwriting credits include critical and commercial successes by Talking Heads and U2, such as Remain in Light and The Joshua Tree, as well as work with James, Slowdive, Paul Simon and the 2008 Coldplay album Viva la Vida or Death and All His Friends.

Eno has pursued several artistic ventures parallel to his music career, including visual art installations, a regular column in the newspaper The Observer and, in collaboration with artist Peter Schmidt, “Oblique Strategies”, a deck of cards in which each card contains a phrase or cryptic remark, intended to be drawn randomly, for the purpose of suggesting insights to break a deadlock or dilemma situation.

Eno recently contributed a chapter to Sound Unbound: Sampling Digital Music and Culture (The MIT Press, 2008) edited by Paul D. Miller a.k.a. DJ Spooky.
