This is Eno circa ’75. A few years earlier he got bored onstage with Roxy Music and daydreamed about laundry. Later this year he’d go ambient, bedridden in a body cast, hearing faint notes of a harp pluck and echo off hospital walls like specks of flaking paint. Fragments of both worlds are in here- shards of sharp guitars from his rock days, cloudy pools of sound he’d dive into headfirst on the next record. The transmissions of a young man lush with ideas.
Lots of tasty green things in this one…
ANOTHER GREEN WORLD:
- 2 oz. gin
- ½ oz. fresh lime juice
- ½ oz. simple syrup
- 4 thin cucumber slices
- 4 thin jalapeno slices
- 4 mint leaves
In the bottom of a shaker, muddle 3 of the cucumber slices along with the jalapeno, mint and simple syrup. Add ice, gin and lime juice and shake, straining into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with the 4th cucumber slice.
