Discovery of the day: Eno's "Silver Morning"

Daniel Lanois lends his sublime pedal steel chops on this fantastic song that sounds exactly like its title suggests.

One grey-skied afternoon this past January, I was walking the streets listening to Brian Eno’s Music For Airports. “2/2”, the album’s final song/piece/composition, seems on its surface to be the very embodiment of background music - it features no vocals, and the instrumentation consists of nothing more than soothing synth notes lapping over one another for 10 minutes plus. But on my headphones in my head space that day, the song was more “life-affirming piece of art” than “polite music you can study to”. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find a stream of the song, but you can listen to it here.
