You go back and listen to things like Intruder, and it still jars the senses and sounds pretty darn "off the beaten path" even now.
Friip and Fast were on the first one as well, but I wasn't aware of ENO's involment with anything other than the Lamb (cool). What I was getting at is that I think that Gabriel really is a category unto himself as Eno is. These guys are mold breakers IMHO.
