Plays Well With Others

Mr. & Mrs. Eno;
Your son Brian Eno is a remarkable student with his musical abilities and the fact that he plays well with others being his most obvious strengths. Attached to this note is a snippet of the production and collaboration works he has been involved with over the years. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

The Hairiest Mixtape

you’re back in the woods with your cousin and a buddy drinkin’ beer out the back of his truck. when along comes buddy’s older brother. he strolls up, grabs a beer and jams a mixtape into the car stereo. the rest of the night is spent in a gradual stupor listening to amazing obscure early seventies rock; bands whose names you haven’t heard since.
