What is Brian Eno? A musician, a composer, or an artist impossible to label?

Stephen Sackur talks to Brian Eno, the hugely influential
contemporary music maker once styled the ‘brainiest guy in pop’ –
except the word ‘pop’ does not really fit. Briefly a member of
Roxy Music in the early '70s, he then went his own way, creating
ambient music, developing audio-visual installations and
collaborating with a host of big names including Bowie, U2 and
Coldplay. His output has been prolific and varied, but what is
he? A musician, a composer, or an artist impossible to label?
