Probably something with Karl Hyde could go on here.

was thinking that too - "Lilac" would eat up lots of the running time but it's funky as hell (I'd add "Daddy's Car" too just cuz I love it)

Totally forgot about the Hyde stuff! Totally agree. Perhaps it's a segmented by era/style thing:
Funky Alien: AGW, RAF, Lanois-beat stuff from the Music for Films trough, Hyde
It's Nearly Africa: Talking Heads, Bush of Ghosts, etc.
You're Unbelievable: Nerve Net, James/U2, 90s remixes, We Prick You-type stuff

Listening to "The Ship" title track is putting me in an Eno frame of mind and have been going back to the box sets, where I first heard most of his work.
Anyone willing to give a go at making a playlist of his best bits since the 1992 box sets? I only know odds and ends from a few of those albums.

I'd guess it's kind of tough, since he only released one vocal album ("Another Day on Earth") since the boxed sets, and almost all of the other myriad things he did release were more or less strictly ambient/installation work, with the exception of the Karl Hyde discs, the other Eno/Byrne disc, guest spots, production work and the odd comp or two.
A couple of my fave things he was involved with were this Depeche Mode remix:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzEpiVbkC38
And this Walkabouts songs:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pr5EHyGBsgg

My own compilation of his productions + collaborations

Eno actually gets a co-write credit on both "Heroes" and "Once in a Lifetime," which I've always found interesting. Eno rarely gets formal co-write credit, but in those cases it conspicuously happens to be two of the respective artists' best songs, if not their best. There was an NPR bit years ago about "Once in a Lifetime," and it's revealed that Eno wrote the chorus! Byrne originally wanted the whole song to be the A part, over and over. As for "Heroes," I've always wondered why Bowie shared credit with Eno or what the latter's specific contributions were.

that's a great list of productions and collaborations. lots of lesser known stuff in that, or stuff that doesn't immeidatley jump out at you as an Eno thing but then later you're like, "oh yeah".
I quite like his mix of Jane Siberry's "Temple"
