Some Robert Quine later.......Robert Quine (with Fred Maher) - Basic (1984) Recorded in Quines home studio with Fred Maher, drummer on Richard Hell & the Voidoids Destiny Street (1982) and Lou Reeds Legendary Hearts (1983) and Live in Italy (1984). All my influences are in there, everything I know. Take the first track, Pickup, for example: It derives from Milkcow Blues Boogie [from Elvis Presleys The Sun Sessions] - what Scotty Moore is doing. Its that same riff mutated and broken down. The chords behind it - thats The Byrds. I could go on and on. Even if they dont sound anything like Eno, the Eno influence is what caused me to leave a lot of those tracks alone. Theyre basic tracks with the textures already there............very influential on Eno Quine....Eno.. Roberts experience working on my Nerve Net album had stimulated his interest in Ambient Music. In fact, Quine was instrumental in the development of Ambient Music - during my stay in New York it was he who encouraged me in the unfamiliar new music I was doing there - which became On Land. Without his interest, Im not sure I would have ever finished and released that record.
