Re: OT: Bowie's 6-min "Heroes"

The 4 Eno albums are his 'rock' albums (not ambient, etc) & imo all are great: "Here Come the Warm Jets", "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy", "Another Green World" & "Before & After Science" - they were remastered for the first time (except for a ltd edition box - the mid 80s cds sound like what that woman leaves on the sidewalk of HCTWJ) last year on Virgin/Astralworks (mine say 'made in Holland' but cost $12.99 at Tower in Cambridge) - identifiable because they're in digipaks (80s cds are in jewelcases) & on the far left of the front cover it says "original masters"...I think anyone who digs the Bowie/Eno collaborations would dig these - I still get a kick out of the synth solo on "The Pow Pow Negro Blowtorch"...Eno is funnier, & more 'human' sounding than Bowie or ex bandmate Ferry, both of whom I also dig
