How did Eno and Lanois become a team? Seems he helped/produced an Eno album? Sorry if I'm getting ahead of the journal, just saw that on the original list. Seems interesting given the geography and what was under his belt before hand.

It's curious to me that prior to that first session where Lanois met Eno, that Lanois didn't know who Eno was. The timeline isn't completely clear, but it was prior to meeting with U2 in 1983. Apollo came out in 1983, and the Harold Budd record in 1984, although the Harold Budd record was worked on first.
I commented earlier The the Martha and the Muffins record, Danseparc, has been compared to Remain in Light. It also came out in 1983. I wonder if it was made prior to meeting Eno? I guess Lanois may have been influenced by Remain in Light without making any connection to who the producer was.

That Apollo record makes WWWAAAYYY more since now. I always thought it a bid odd to have some of that twang, but the whole Texas connection makes way more since now.
Also the timeline is interesting. Seems a little off, no?
I think I get it now. It looks like they changed their name to M+ M after one of the Martha's quit. By the time of this album they were down to only one Martha. According to the album cover. Ha Ha.
I tried out both the song and the full album and I like it: and the rhythm and the bass and the sax on the title track.
Btw if you like this also try the Belgian band Allez Allez of which especially the song Allez Allez is fantastic. You can find a Best of both on Spotify and Apple Music.
And I also listened to the debut album which features Echo Beach and it's also great but of course more standard new wave than Danseparc. The same beautiful sax sound can be found on Terminal Twilight which next to Echo Beach and Paint By Number Heart is the standout.
Unfortunately I can't find This Is The Ice Age on Apple Music so I'll have to find another way to listen to that one.
Thanks, Dihansse. I'll check out those recommendations. I'm using Apple Music as well, and had the same problem finding This Is The Ice Age. I've had a listen to the following one, Mystery Walk, which is also interesting but sounds less like the work of a band.
