Check out this awesome interview with Brian Eno Fun side-note: interview conducted by UK journo Paul Morley, who once upon a time was co-founder of ZTT Records and was the man who gave the world Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Fun bits from the interview include Eno saying nice things about Abba and talking a bit of smack about Steve Reich. He also talks a bit about working with U2 and Coldplay at the same time and his worries that he'd get his files mixed up and end up giving them identical tracks by mistake. An amusing thought as a prank and also confirms that the description of Eno and Byrne's working process for Everything That Happens Will Happen Today was basically accurate.

Here's a fun clip of the Mary Kaye Trio. According to Stephen Worth (who is guest blogging over at boing2), they were the first act in Vegas ever to play a late night lounge act, paving the way for Louis Prima & Keely Smith and the lounge explosion in late 50s Vegas.
