I hate that Sinking of the titanic thing too, it is fucking awful. And the first eno/bryars collaboration 'Discreet music' is just..well.. alright I suppose. But its not exactly tricky to set up a delay loop now is it ppl.
However Gavin Bryars is really fucking good.. try
'The last Days' or 'Farewell to philosophy' and then 'Jesus Blood never failed me' (which features Tom Waits at the end). Heh, you've never heard Tom Waits that nervous.
Actually farewell to philosophy is probably the best, it has a lot of smaller works that are truly special 'By the vaar' is worth the price of the CD on its own. He's a damn good double bass player. Oh and dont let that ugly bastard on the cover put you off.
