Just thought I'd point out here that Brian Eno has also put out a
number of albums, under his own name, on which he doesn't play
anything but has planned things (composer). Things like Discreet
Music (recent acquisition), Neroli and Thursday Afternoon (getting
into ambient territory here) are very good examples of him having
very little involvement in the performance, that or it being
unimportant.
Does it matter what the extent of his involvement was? Seems to me
that there shouldn't be a problem as long as everyone is credited
with what they did.
Just my two pesos.
