‘Pirate shadow library’ UbuWeb shared Eno, a 1973 documentary short film directed by Alfons Sinniger.
The film captures Brian Eno, shortly after his departure from Roxy Music, and features the recording sessions for Here Come the Warm Jets.

you can never have too much Brian Eno. not.
Its ok if you don’t get Eno. I hate it when everbody glomms onto MY discoveries. I used to play Eno on my radio show in the early 80s. And people would say, about Music for Airports, what the hell is that? Sound was his music.
you can never have too much 70s Brian Eno.
Strong lesson.
” I replace the element of skill considered as necessary in music by the element of judgement”

this is not a good sound, lets pick something else – is also a skill. 😉
he also replaces humility with an impressive abundance of self-absorbed arrogance
I guess humility vanishes out of the window if you go powder your nose every half an hour. 😉
I understand completely why Eno is revered by many today – and this is an interesting look into his work and thinking at the beginning of his career.
But why was someone making an Eno documentary in 73?
Roxy Music had 3 albums in the UK top-10 before 1974. They were a popular band, partly due to having an androgynous alien conjuring up experimental sounds from instruments they had never seen or heard before. Brian Eno was a fairly public figure, before he left the spotlight to focus on studio work.
Why not. Do you say the same cx about documentaries on the Romans? What did Eno and the Romans do for us?
hah, agreed. I love me some Eno, but this was entirely forgettable IMO
Because he quit a very popular band and was doing something unique?

Fantastic! Glam Punk! So cool to see such a slice in time, 49 years ago, the making of Here Come the Warm Jets with Busta Jones and Phil Manzanera. Is that Robert Fripp recording in the studio around 14:15? Also what is the EMS in Eno’s home studio? I know he’s playing a VCS3 with Roxy Music but I don’t recognize the home studio EMS, the two patch matrix are at the top. There’s a quick full shot of the EMS at 1:42.
eno’s on fire…..
Better throw him in the water. He’s laughing like a heifer…
OK I absolutely loved this. Thank you for bringing to my attention. It made me smile!
Brilliant artist…unique experiment music….helped produce, and collaborated with other artists like John Cale, Ultravox, Cluster out of Germany, and many more….
Eno has matured greatly since this documentary. His output and ideas have been remarkable over the years.
This is amazing. Have always loved Warm Jets. Can’t believe I’ve never seen this before.
This is Amazing!!! What a discovery! Here come the Warm Jets is the greatest album ever made ??
