Here Come the Warm Jets is the first solo album by Brian Eno

The album's musical styles range from aggressive garage rock ("Blank Frank") to serene Beach Boys-style reverie ("On Some Faraway Beach"). Eno enlisted a large number of guest musicians to play on the album, including three members of Roxy Music, guitarist Robert Fripp and bassist John Wetton of King Crimson and members of Hawkwind and the Pink Fairies. One of the most notable performances from these guests is the cacophonous three-minute-long guitar solo by Fripp on the song "Baby's On Fire".

"Warm jets" is used by Eno to describe the distorted guitar in the title track, which evokes the sound of a jet engine. Eno himself claims that he often chooses words for their sound.

The album provided Eno with modest success in the UK album charts, and would in fact be his only album to chart for the remainder of the 1970s apart from 1978's Music for Airports.

In 2003, the album was ranked number 436 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.

Here Come the Warm Jets was recorded at Majestic Studios, London during September, 1973 by Derek Chandler. It was mixed at Air and Olympic Studios by Brian Eno and Chris Thomas. Album cover photography was by Lorenz Zatecky with design supervision by Carol McNicoll and artwork by C.C.S. Associates. 2004 Original Masters re-design by Andrew Day of The Red Room/EMI. Mastered at DSD by Simon Heyworth at Super Audio Mastering. Ampex ATR 2Ch Tape playback with ARIA electronics by David Hill.

lyrics

Oh cheeky cheeky
Oh naughty sneaky
You're so perceptive
And I wonder how you knew.

But dead finks don't walk too well (oh no)
A bad sense of direction (oh no)
And so they stumble round in threes (oh no)
Such a strange collection.

Oh, you headless chicken
Can those poor teeth take so much kicking?
You're always so charming
As you make your way up here.

And dead finks don't dress too well
No discrimination
To be a zombie all the time
Requires such dedication.

"Oh please sir, will you let it go by,
'Cos I failed both tests with my legs both tied
In my place the stuff is all there
I've been ever so sad for a very long time.

My my, they wanted the works:
Can you this? and that? I never got a letter back
More fool me, bless my soul
More fool me, bless my soul."

Oh perfect masters
They thrive on disasters
They all look so harmless
Till they find their way up here.

But dead finks don't talk too well
They've got a shaky sense of diction
It's not so much a living hell
It's just a dying fiction.

WE DO NOT HAVE A FREE PRESS

"The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes." ~ John Swinton

    where in this video is there any form of any anti semitism??

    because i quote Kissinger?? wtf??? twat

  • josephpoulin

    Very well done love Eno back when he played real songs! Not when you heard an album with 28 minutes of one cord.

  • LOL "28 minutes of one chord", i guess you're right

    i bought the Eno CD called "Thursday Afternoon" just one track, 59minutes long

    relaxing though, but i very very rarely play it

  • @flowerpunkchip don't worry, you had them stumped at "Premusing" hehe

  • This is pure serendipity ! Thanks for posting and nice job!!!

  • ".... a Dying Fiction.."

    Not all dead fings don't talk !

    Certain people are well known to come back to this Earth from the Afterlife to have their say.

    Peace ;-)

  • @flowerpunkchip blame the Bastards with the Money !

    They kill daily to make it.

    If they happen to be religious nutters and their religion revolves around killing to make money then FUCK them.

    Time for a change :-)

    Peace ;-)

  • hey this video is fuckn TIT Eno is the best and the record co would never give him a decent budget to make Videos. So Hats off to you flowerpunkchip

    nice fnn job

  • I have this CD this song is taken from. The video is interesting, however it could have had the an impact of greater proportions with out the dead babies. Or is this an allusion to "Babies On Fire" for the the same CD?

  • @swaggs, it seems you werent watching. this is a political statement with an eno song playing over it. :( great way to take the song out of context and ruin it.
