More Blank Than Frank and Desert Island Selection are 1986 compilation albums of music by Brian Eno. More Blank Than Frank is the title given to the vinyl LP and cassette releases, and Desert Island Selection is the name used for the CD version. The three versions were issued at the same time, though they differ somewhat in the ordering and in the songs that were used. The LP features 10 tracks, the cassette, 12, and the CD, 11. The releases are compilations of many of Eno's earlier solo works, ranging from 1973's Here Come the Warm Jets to 1978's Music for Airports. The LP release contains a somewhat wider variety of material, including a couple of darker and rockier songs. The CD release shares seven of its track selections with the LP, but, in comparison, features a more lopsided selection of Eno's earlier works, eschewing the harder, rockier numbers entirely in favor of softer pieces more akin to Eno's ambient work, and concluding with a six-minute edit of his ambient piece "1/1", taken from Music for Airports. The cassette release follows the LP's track selection and ordering, but inserts two songs, which are included on the CD but not the LP, into the running order.
