Before and After Eno
by The Same Same
supported by 6 fans who also own “Taibshí”
A strong and successful collection, more than a labour of love or a curiosity. The SameSame have a deep musical knowledge of Eno's catalogue, high standards, and bring a sideways, indeed oblique, freshness to these songs. "Dead Finks" occupies a more settled yet different space. "Golden Hours" is utterly engaging. "Julie With" suddenly has touches of menace added to its wistfully mythical laconic pastoralism. Well done!

Let's just park the argument that many of these songs should have been on albums. They are B-sides. They hint at what is likely to come. They are misfits, not fitting in with the majority. They are fun, when the pressure of completing an album is over. Light and shade combined. Most of all, they are typical Undies. A strong barometer of the sound, the spirit and the groove. A must listen. (BTW, Sue is alright).

The Undies dip into the past and sparkle up remixes which have been idle for far too long. Part A of this collection features reworkings which were ahead of the game. Part B is the now, bringing new interpretations to more recent sounds. A bit of dance, a bit of ambient, a bit of orchestral splash. Everything just flows together, like it always does, even the new stunning track. A triumph for one continuous listen and perfect to come back to, again & again.
