NO CONDITION IS PERMANENT [Episode #491 ~ 04-11-26]
Pictured: Brian Eno.
Chris Thomas was drafted in to mix [Here Come The Warm Jets]. This took place in October, mostly at Olympic Studios in Barnes, with additional work at Air (where Thomas managed to crowbar in some extra drum tracks and an additional bass part on ‘The Paw Paw Negro Blowtorch’). Thomas’s principal function was to organize Eno’s clamorous multi-track master tapes on which many of the instrumental overdubs were doubled or trebled, injecting some sonic clarity into what was in places a wall of opaque noise. As Thomas recalled in a 1974 interview with Richard Cromelin how, while he attended to the nuts and bolts of mixing, an impatient Eno would drift into an adjoining studio, where his innate, if unfocused, ability to conjure something from nothing was amply demonstrated: ‘I’d be mixing or something and he’d be down in the studio playing the piano with like three fingers or something, and he’d have this little tape recorder down there and he’d come up and say, “I’ve written a song”, and he’d play it to me and it’d be great! He’s phenomenal. It just pours out of him. I really think he needs to discipline himself and get it done right … ‘
— David Sheppard, On Some Faraway Beach: The Life and Times of Brian Eno.
