Yes, but didn't Robert Fripp use Eno's delay technique on some of his
solo albums.  _Let the Power Fall_, from a couple of years ago, and the
older one whose name I cannot remember.

He takes single guitar notes and puts them through a tape delay system:

      +---------------+               +---------------+
      |  _            |               |            _  |
      | / \           |               |           / \ |
      | |o|       o   |               |    o      |o| |
      | \_/           |               |           \_/ |
      |  \_________________________________________/  |
      |       ^       |               |       ^       |
      | + +   record  |               |       play  + |
      +-|-|-----------+               +-------------|-+
        | |                                         |
        | Guitar                                    Speaker
        Microphone

He can build some pretty incredble textures this way.  He can also do it
live.  I recomend these two albums.  (Sorry I can't remember the name of
the first one, I think one side was called _God Save the Queen_)
