In 1975, I was 17. Albums like Young Americans, Live!, Katy Lied, The Last Record Album along with Another Green World made me feel like a proper grown up.
I adored Roxy Music, was fascinated by No Pussyfooting and thoroughly enjoyed Warm Jets and Tiger Mountain. It seemed Eno had grown up with this album too.
I’ve been told that I look like him.
I think I love it more today.
You may be wondering why I haven’t done a Feature on it. Pitchfork have said it all better:

When you were seventeen
It was a very good year…
There was definitely a sophistication to the music of our generic mid-70s 6th form. Until some berk put on Robin Trower.
Loved this album and played fairly recently. Has aged well.
