Brian Turrington (bass and co-writer) recently passed away. He was my friend, we wrote and played together back in the day. He was a unique musician. and just about the nicest man you could hope to meet.
So sorry for the loss. This has always been one of my favorite Eno concatenations, with the bass being the one part my brain fixates on without fail. Thanks for reminding us of someone who qualifiably made this song what it is - always captivating, driving, aggressive and fresh. RIP.
Of Eno's first four solo LPs, three are total masterpieces and one, 'Taking Tiger Mountain...', is merely brilliant....'Another Green World' is a strong contender for my favourite album of all time..
There are tins, There was pork, There are legs, There are sharks, There was john, There are cliffs, There was mother, There's a poker, There was you, Then there was you, There are scenes, There are blues, There are boots, There are shoes, There are Turks, There are fools, They're in lockers, They're in schools, They're in you, Then there was you, Burn my fingers, Burn my toes, Burn my uncle, Burn his books, Burn his shoes, Cook the leather, Put it on me, Does it fit me, Or you, It looks tight on you,
He almost always played as a part of other peoples' concepts - most notably in Roxy. When you think of Roxy Music, you think of Bryan, of Eno, and maybe of Andy. You don't think so much of Phil.
For a few years I did too. And in all honesty, I heard their ZIggy Stardust before I heard Bowie's. But in a completely embarrassing turn of events, I loved Weird Al's Yoda long before I knew the Kink's Lola. True stories, all.
@@michaelwendt3714 Having been well-soaked in the old Eno albums before I heard the Bauhaus version, yeah. Cool that they covered it, but it underwhelms by comparison.
Proto punk at its absolute best with so much going on and still keep a haunting melody. who is like Eno ? have loved his music since my youth. Baby's on fire. Working with Bowie on his Low album especially sound and vision. So much talent stirs one's soul to the dark fringes of humanity on the dirty boulevard for a smoke break. So many artist owe a debt of gratitude to Brian Eno for his influence.
Remains my favourite vocalised Eno track after I think 48, maybe 49 years of first hearing it. This is fitting video footage to go with it. Very well done and THANKS🧙♂
Wow - I did not know that - pretty Cool - yeah that period of Prog to New Wave in the early to mid 70's is becoming more interesting to me - I was more Punk and New Wave - my older brother has tons or Rare Prog Rock stuff that some of which - like this song - are pretty Proto Punk / New Wave
@@gannondresser1857 I see your sarcasm. You can't hear the similarities? Must not have a fine tuned ear. Have you heard of Syd Barrett? It's an observation on their vocal ranges, tonality, and enunciation. By the way, it's Taking Tiger Mountain By Strategy, not 'Talking Tiger Mountain'. I'm surprised for all your listening to this record that you would get it wrong.
Love Bauhaus to death but their cover of this is a mere shadow of the greatness of Eno’s work. But I can still appreciate the fact that Bauhaus’ cover is foundational for many of you.
@@cynthiaslusher5212 El comentario que hice al tema de Brian Eno, para nada pretendía ser peyorativo o desacreditar a nadie, ni personal, ni musicalmente .
If this is on Warm Jets ....did I just somehow kind of overlook it because it's in the middle of a bunch of other great stuff? Cuz this is amazing!🎉🎉🎉🎉
Great song. Phil Collins on Drums. Punk before Punk. Love this record. Taking Tiger Mountain. Third Uncle is also done LIVE with 801 Live. Brian Eno early solo work was great. Those first four vocal records are Fire.
Freddie Smith or Phil Collins - I'm sure they were all hanging out in Mass getting stoned and jamming away - all that creative intensity and that time of 1974 and 1975 - sort of 'inbetween' eras - Prog phasing into New Wave and Punk scraping out the delusions of Hippy Rock
third uncle cover from bauhaus was the first version of this track wich one i heard. and this version was a great cover but the original version is much better. my pearents were big roxy fans when the band was new, i heard it all the time when i was a small boy, together with bowie and t rex
Feels like you're doing a thousand miles an hour. It's like a lion. I hear the sirens In the crowd like a roar. I see the lightning on the horizon making the sound of a war. And then there is you.
Can't find any reference to Phil Collins playing drums on Third Uncle...Freddie Smith was the drummer and Phil Collins played some percussion on Mother Whale Eyeless....do you have some inside knowledge perhaps?
Yes, that's kind of typical of Eno - jump ahead several years and develop post-punk while punk itself is barely yet a concept, let alone a genre. I sometimes wonder if he owned a Tardis.
Always thought this was originally from BAUHAUS .... Whatever, the original is better than the cover, what a bunch of fantastic musicians ... Bass, guitar, drums, ...

Burn his books,
Burn his shoes,
Cook the leather,
Put it on me,
Does it fit me,
Or you,
It looks tight on you,
fabulous lyrics
Do you know the lyrics to Sky Saw?
Manzanera is seriously under rated. One of the greats. Wilder then anyone really.
He almost always played as a part of other peoples' concepts - most notably in Roxy. When you think of Roxy Music, you think of Bryan, of Eno, and maybe of Andy. You don't think so much of Phil.
Yawn...
@@Baribrotzerhe also plays on John Cale's Gun from his 1974 album Fear
His virtuosity is really expressed throughout the album. Particularly Burning Airlines Give You So Much More!
If y'all like Eno/Manzanera and you don't know the 801 Live album, take a listen. It's brilliant!
Also manzaneras album Diamond Head.
It was the first direct soundboard live recording I think. One of the best live albums ever. Must for any serious muso.
I've loved this song for 50 years now. It just never gets old for me.
Me too ❤
on repeat
I cannot understand how this song has evaded me all my life.I always thought it was an original Bauhaus original song.
May be the Bauhaus were inspired by for their title "hair of the dog".
After reading your comment that's what I think.

Phil Manzanera is such an awesome guitarist, especially on the Les Paul!
I think this is the Firebird, but I could be wrong.
Didn't know Robert Wyatt played on this song. Fucking love him.
he did? drums?!
@@chinmeysway Timbales - a latin percussion instrument: two metal drums on a stand (looks like snare drums, but only with drum heads on top)
I heard this lp in 74, but this song never took my attention. Now, as a postpunk fan it does😂
Prophetic track portent the forthcoming post-punk era.
Dark and neurotic.
This is pretty much what the world needs now.🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love Phil Collins’ amazing drumming on this track…

Are you sure Phil Collins plays on this? I thought he only played on "Mother Whale Eyeless." I think this is Freddie Smith and Robert Wyatt.
Post-punk before thre was punk!!Indelible stroke of genius with Roxy members also at the helm!!!
Amazing ! I hear some Can Influence...
I agree...and also Neu !

Taking Tiger 🐅 Mountain ⛰️ by strategy. Love that album
I cannot thank You enough for this Masterpiece. I am Blown Away by just How Sublime this is. Thanks again. 💯
Eno's vocals remind me of Syd Barrett sometimes.
Both Eno and David Bowie were influenced by him. Bowie did a cover of See Emily Play on Pinups.
righttt! i always think this listening to the talking tiger mountain record

After borrowing the record for the first time I told my friend that Taking Tiger Mountain sounded like a technically advanced Syd Barrett.
@@donyoung7874tf is your problem dude. is there a deleted comment im missing?
Perfection. Listening over and over. Can't stop.

It's hard to imagine rock after 1970 without Eno. Never ENOugh!

En 1974, anticipándose a sonidos futuros, los post punkers por venir, aún usaban pañales.
Yes , but at least give us credit for having a functioning mind as we grew. I was born in January 1969. So yes I was in diapers as you say .
@@cynthiaslusher5212 El comentario que hice al tema de Brian Eno, para nada pretendía ser peyorativo o desacreditar a nadie, ni personal, ni musicalmente .
Bauhaus did a version of course.
That was the first version I heard. I still think the cover is better than the original. The rhythm is better.
@@madarab37 Yeah, same here on both accounts.
Wth. I thought Eno was an ambient artist. I never knew about this. And I've listened to quite a few of his contemporaries (Fripp etc).
If this is on Warm Jets ....did I just somehow kind of overlook it because it's in the middle of a bunch of other great stuff? Cuz this is amazing!🎉🎉🎉🎉
It's on "Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)"
He sped up Krautrock!
... I'm gone (jaw dropping as I leave) 🎉
❤Bahaus' version
Just very cool.
Great song. Phil Collins on Drums. Punk before Punk.
Love this record. Taking Tiger Mountain. Third Uncle is also done LIVE with 801 Live.

Actually Freddie Smith is n drums 🪘🥁

and then there was this...
I played the album and I hear where Wire maybe was influenced by some of this on some of their early songs.
Damn. This gets with it!

Amazing❤ I wanna Hear Queens of the Stone Age cover this..🔥
'tis interesting to listening to these early post Roxy Music solo music, knowing what direction his music took.
Incredible.
Grande come sempre B.Eno!!!🎤✨🎸
Brilliant track
Phil playing Frippertronics on a Les Paul, which is why Robert wasn't needed on Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy).
Are you serious?

Shame on me, I too thought that Bauhaus did the original.....but this is on a whole other level.....
Today i learned
Built to Spill covered this. Cool.
Bauhaus have a great rendition also from 1982. The Album is called The Sky's Gone out
a very nice song. I like the Bauhaus cover too
I recorded this off mark and lard decades ago when they had a Friday night show. I always presumed it was magazine. Now I know. 👍🏿
Sometimes new different things help make even bettrr
Starts out like "One of these Days" by Pink Floyd
Industrial strength Rock and Roll.
1974 р.н. і я вперше чую цей трек
Born in 1959 and have loved this song since 1974. Glad you get to experience it.

In case you forgot how great a drummer Phil Collins was. A few years later he would be the drummer on Shock The Monkey.
Can't find any reference to Phil Collins playing drums on Third Uncle...Freddie Smith was the drummer and Phil Collins played some percussion on Mother Whale Eyeless....do you have some inside knowledge perhaps?
In music you can crash the plane and walk away with it - Ian Breno
Wow....... !

Sounds like Big Hits/Hard Attack-era MX-80… with Phil Collins on drums!😂
Bauhaus killed this as a cover in 83!!! 👅
The his is amazing

Brasil awed!
Post-punk en 1974 !!!
Yes, that's kind of typical of Eno - jump ahead several years and develop post-punk while punk itself is barely yet a concept, let alone a genre. I sometimes wonder if he owned a Tardis.
Carajo,de esto hicieron luego una version Bauhaus.
Pioneers
Always thought this was originally from BAUHAUS .... Whatever, the original is better than the cover, what a bunch of fantastic musicians ... Bass, guitar, drums, ...
Brian Eno.love
Great track post punk avant garde
Well ahead of its time
It's a Ten from Len
Brian E. Inspired music
Nut
And then there was Joy Division
How did they go from Unknown Pleasures to Love will Tear Us Apart. Very disappointing.
Yea- New Wave started in the late 70's ? me not thinks so - this sounds super 1981 and it's like 7 years earlier
This is a,Roxy video sans Ferry .Dead Finks 😮
oh my, Fripp!
świetny!
Eno has a broad, broad range...if you like this check out Miss Shapiro
Just listened to Miss Shapiro the first 90 seconds sounds 20-30 years ahead of its time
post punk was before punk. That’s some quantum mechanical type of shit
NEU! ... Kraftwerk 70s
And Can.
Cool.like drumnbass
Cos w tym jest zwazywszy na rok powstania.
