Brian Eno - 1971 - 1977 The Man Who Fell to Earth

When Roxy Music burst on the scene in the early 70's as part of the glam rock movement, they became critic darlings in no small part due to their outrageous - even for the time - look, and Brian Eno was the most outrageous of them all. Androgynous, insanely attired, beautifully made up and - oddest of all - with a receding hairline! While he was the least musically adept of the group, his sonic weirdness made a distinctive contribution to the group's oeuvre. He left the band after two fairly ground breaking albums and went on to his personal solo career, collaborations with the likes of Robert Fripp and David Bowie, and many production credits.

This doc obviously concentrates on his most famous and expansive musical years and has an immense amount of fantastic video documentation from the time as well as innumerable interviews with Eno himself along with various participants in his sonic madness. With four proper solo albums, numerous collaborative projects and even more production work, this insanely short period of a mere 6 years is productive beyond any normal conception.

Super informative and quite entertaining, this doc on a hort period of time of a fascinating man is well worth looking into.
