The Pearl
In the final stage of the Brian Eno reissues series, Virgin Records reissues the wonderfully sublime collaboration album with the talented ambient classical composer Harold Budd. In 1980, Eno and Budd collaborated on "Ambient 2 - The Plateaux of Mirror", a beautifully crafted ambient album (the 2nd in the recently reissued Eno Ambient series) which contained piano textures seen later in his collaborations with Robin Guthrie of the Cocteau Twins and on this hauntingly serene album 'The Pearl'. The Pearl includes 11 ambient soundscape poems using treated keyboard sounds (both electronic and acoustic) and floats in a fluid and dreamy manner throughout with touches of light colour. As with all recent reissues, these albums have been digitally transferred from the Original Masters by Simon Heyworth and mastered using 'Class A' Analogue Electronics combined with the best Analogue to Digital conversion. EMI. 2005.
