} Ingesting Tiger Mountain (By Strategy) occurs as 1974 rock album by Brian Eno. A album continued a experimental, lyrically cryptic music Eno experienced mass produced in his former album, Here Come The Warm Jets.

Several of the songs contain information to China or Chinese culture. Eno said that the title of a album was originally the title of a Maoist opera, which he encountered around San Francisco in the form of postcards advertising the performance. He got there is no interest around seeing a opera, however its title (which he felt sounded at another time mediaeval & modern, romanticistic & practical) fascinated him.
