PSYCHIC TEMPLE
Plays Music For Airports *** 1/2
One artist recording an entire album by another artist is kind of nutty in the first place. But covering an ambient album by Brian Eno? Now that's bonkers! Has anyone ever covered even a single Eno instrumental before? Eno's music seems impervious to covers -- he creates a hermetically sealed world unto itself. Psychic Temple proves my assumption beautifully wrong. (It won't be the last time.) Eno wrote songs and indeed others can cover them with style, capturing the spirit of the original but making the tunes their own. Who'd a thunk?
