Event Description

Calling all music lovers! Join us for 33 1/3 Classic Albums - a series celebrating our love of the perfect album. 33 1/3 is a series of short books about popular music, each focusing on an iconic individual album that occupies a specific place in music history. Meet the authors who took on these seminal records and bring your questions!

The serene, delicate songs on Another Green World sound practically meditative, but the album itself was an experiment fueled by adrenaline, panic, and pure faith. It was the first Brian Eno album to be composed almost completely in the confines of a recording studio, over a scant few months in the summer of 1975. The album was a proof of concept for Eno's budding ideas of "the studio as musical instrument," and a signpost for a bold new way of thinking about music.

Geeta Dayal's writing on music, visual art, and science has appeared in many major publications, including BookforumThe WireThe New York TimesThe International Herald-Tribune, and The Village Voice. She is currently at work on a second book on the history of electronic music. She lives in Boston.
