Brian Eno - Driving me Backwards
Although I am a massive fan of the several Brian Eno albums I own those are the only Brian Eno albums that I know. My friend John - who is of an age where he experienced Eno's records as they were released - lent me Here Come The Warm Jets. It is spectacular. Right now, this song is freaking me out.
Released in 1973 I can very much hear the influence this record had on Bauhaus, Daniel Ash most especially.

She Lives in My Lap - Andre 5000
Because I was critical of Andre in a previous post I should throw some props his way as well. This is a PERFECT song.
The Coup - Your Parents' Cocaine
My second favorite song on The Coup's record Sorry to Bother You. Why? Obvious reasons numbers one and two: The Kazoo and the lyrics. And an outstanding video to boot. Really digging this group.
The Coup - The Guillotine
Mr. Brown turned me on to The Coup when he gave me their record Sorry to Bother You. The entire record is fantastic but this is THE stand out. There are moments where I see shades of Andre from Outkast, but thankfully without his penchant for digressing into lowest common denominator territory. Looking forward to getting into more of this group's catalogue.
