Eno is the key to fully appreciating that album. It's as if he temporarily replaced Hackett on that one. It doesn't have the immediate impact of some of the other albums, but it's certainly a "grower".

EDIT

I gave this another spin, and Hackett does have some fine guitar parts throughout. Eno is more or less like the 6th man.
