Description
Apollo by Brian Eno LP (1983)
This music was originally recorded in 1983 for a feature-length documentary movie called "Apollo" later retitled For All Mankind, directed by Al Reinert. The original version of the film had no narration, and simply featured 35mm footage of the Apollo moon missions collected together roughly chronologically, and set to Eno's music as it appears on the album. Although the film had some limited theatrical runs at so-called "art house" cinemas in some cities, audience response was lukewarm. The filmmakers still felt the film could do better if it reached a wider audience, and so they re-edited the film, added narration, re-structured the music, and re-titled the film in the process. Various edits of the film were shown to test audiences for further refining. As all this was going on, the film's release was delayed until 1989. By that time several tracks on the album were omitted from the soundtrack and replaced by other pieces by Eno and other artists. The tracks from the album that remain on the final edit of the film are: "Always Returning" "Drift" "Silver Morning" "Stars" "Understars" "The Secret Place" "An Ending (Ascent)" The newer tracks from the film that are not on the album are: "Sirens" "Theme for 'Opera'" "Fleeting Smile" "Tension Block" "Asian River" "Quixote" "4-Minute Warning" "For Her Atoms"
