@christhmatist Год назад

Years ago, I was bartending and playing drums in a band. I made a mix tape of my favorite tunes, and realized that A) Manu Katche played drums on most of them, and B) Lanois produced most of them. When "Acadie" came out, I learned that he was coming to a small club in my home of Richmond, VA. Hell yes. The Iguanas were supposed to open, but had to cancel. Dave Matthews was in town doing overdubs for "Over the Table & Dreaming," so he opened acoustic. Watching Dave, I realize that Lanois is standing right next to me. I introduce myself, "Really looking forward to it." He asked why I was there, and I told him about the mix tape. He asked my friend Rob, also a drummer. "I really want to get into the production side of things, and Chris told me about your work." He asked us to hang around and tell him what we thought about his music. After the show, he jumps off the stage, walks up, "Well?" We talked for an hour. He asked me what I thought about "Acadie." "Well, it's definitely your sound. You can tell you recorded it in New Orleans. It's sort of...I dunno...Cajun funk on acid." A few weeks later, driving home late at night listening to Rick Dees and he's interviewing Lanois. "For folks who don't know that you're also a musician, how would you describe your new record?" "Well, I don't really like labels, but I played a show in Virginia a few weeks ago, and this guy told me that it was "Cajun Funk on Acid." I liked that."

This is THE best Daniel Lanois interview ever... I've seen them all, multiple times. 3 hours covered so much ground and Ricks point of view and questions are so much more in line with what Lanois fans want to know about. Really, some of the best "never before asked" questions were finally asked. The best part was seeing Daniel open up and relax in a way he rarely does in interviews. Rick spoke his language and Daniel shares a lot. Thank you for this.

@Martos59 Год назад

As Daniel Lanois says “There’s no greater way to make somebody feel like a somebody than by the amount of preparation you provide them”. You have prepared your entire life to interview your musical icons … Pat Metheney, Sting, Kieth Jarret, Daniel Lanois and what these artists are willing to share with you is amazing. I’m looking forward to your future interviews with (hopefully), Paul McCartney, Elton John with Bernie Taupin, Quincy Jones, Jacob Collier and more. Thank you Rick!

@jeremygilbert7190 Год назад

Just started to watch this and want to say that the friendly, easy-going guy you see here is the real Lanois. He has a studio around the corner from me here in the Roncesvalles area of Toronto and I've seen him and his buddies around the hood lots of times, and he is very approachable. Even has done several concerts in the hood, played at the local bars etc. There is a cafe I go to a lot and the 20-somethings who are behind the counter will often play entire albums - so you might go in and hear all of "Can't Buy A Thrill" by Steely Dan, or "Tapestry." Once, they were playing "Led Zeppelin II" and Lanois walks in and says, "What a coincidence! I had Robert Plant over yesterday!"

@wetdog999 Год назад

So we're neighbours . . . We are just a few blocks down and have bumped into Daniel several times in the neighbourhood. Saw him perform a free concert in the bay of the repair shop that services our car. Its right across the street from his studio. The man is so talented.

Yep… Same hood. Very easygoing and friendly…. Treasure.

@katskillz Год назад

That's great. I remember hearing about Plant in the late 90s or early 2000s, after he got all jazzed on the American bluegrass sound, he really really wanted Lanois to produce an album (I think it was the duet with Alison Krauss?), but it ended up being another producer. So I wonder if they were just in talks, or did they end up working together on something else later?

Daniel's pedal steel sound is one of the most hauntingly beautiful sounds I've ever heard - he played on U2's "The Ground Beneath Her Feet" and the solo is absolutely sublime and takes the whole song to stratospheric levels. EDIT - just got through all 3 hours of this pristine interview. Rick, you should be commended for your high taste and also credible journalism here with Daniel being such a HUMBLE and engaged guest. I can see why he gets so much out of artists - he melts into the tapestry of their sounds while offering creativity and encouragement. What a class act and an all-time producer who deserves every bit of merit!

Rick's videos, beyond being interesting to us, are destined to be valuable oral histories and cultural artifacts.

He said the gunk on your fingers/strings were the key to the sound. I’ve used that theory since. A good amp and an old PBass will never let you down.

Kudos to you, Rick, for creating this amazing quality of content, It is so important and only to be found here.

Amazing interview Rick! As a fellow Canadian I’m always so proud of the contributions people like Daniel have made to the music industry. I’m going to go on a serious 80’s rock kick after this.

@marctoupin3968 Год назад

As a fellow Canadian as well, I couldn’t help but notice the Bryston gear in his studio. Looks like a BP-26 pre-amp and its power supply. Great stuff.

About as close to a dream-come-true interview as I can imagine. I've been breaking out Lanois' *Acadie* on a regular basis in the past year and just luxuriating in everything about it - songwriting, lyricism, sound. Never ceases to blow my mind. Not a weak spot on the entire album. And that's just one work of his.

@alexarihani2902 Год назад

I’ll take a listen. I really enjoyed for the hurry of Winona. Never listened to much more of his work.

@hauntedmilk8540 Год назад

Every time there is a new interview I think it can't get better... and then it does. Brilliant.

@MarcBeland Год назад

Daniel Lanois: a very talented musician, a thoroughly accomplished producer, an intelligent, well-spoken conversationalist, a wonderful human being with a truly massive and eclectic body of work. And a fellow Canadian! Well done, Rick, the 3 hours flew by!!!

@marcuskihn Год назад

Rick, this is THE best Lanois interview ever. You are such a pro man.

@richardcranium4335 Год назад

Dammit Rick. You did it to me again. This interview was devastatingly brilliant. Take my 3 hours, take my money, and give me more. It is a joy to see you bring out the subtle details that give these people their colors, their flavors, their beauty. Great work once more. Thank you both for the warmth. Nice.

That's amazing Rick. I've known Dan and his family for 30 some years and have heard some of those stories before. Glad you got to share a bit with the world! It was adorable seeing his discomfort as you played his hits back to him. ;) It's all about the work for that man. How long did you guys talk? I mean 3 hours of amazing stuff? We want to see the edits!

@eckesdelicious Год назад

I have no words to describe how much I adore this man. I have every record he has had a hand in and have discovered many great artists that way. A few years ago I saw Daniel live in Berlin with his project "Black Dub". I was excited like a little kid to see this man, who produced the soundtrack of my life, in flesh. And only Rick could do this interview like this and give the man his well deserved honor - thank you from the depth of my heart!

Finally finished watching this interview. What a lovely man Daniel Lanois is! By the end of the day, the mutual respect in the room was palpable. Loving your interviews, Rick! Keep up the great work.

Peter Gabriel's SO is truly one of my all time favorite albums. Thank you to Daniel Lanois and to you Rick for getting this interview.

Wow Rick! Fantastic interview with the man who produced records from U2, one of my all time favorite bands! Joshua Tree forever!

Thank you Rick and Daniel for the service to humanity that this interview is! It does my heart much good. What a beautiful, generous, philosophical ramble it is. Thank you Daniel for your incredible contributions to the world of music, creativity and beauty, and I say the same to you Rick!

@trent69marc Год назад

you can really see how Daniel was touched by the music he produced and that he remembers all these moments, pictures, storys which is very impressing!

@mattcwatkins Год назад

Best interview yet! I didn't know who Daniel Lanois was before this interview and that's on me as he's been involved with so many albums that are at my core of musical experience. And he was so open, explained it so I could understand, and gracious. You nailed Rick! Thank you for documenting this stuff that will eventually go the way of Art Tatum had you not done this.

@jordymaas565 Год назад

agreed; will be interesting exploring Mr Tatum. ta

@jackaubrey3037 Год назад

This is the Bohemian Rhapsody of interviews, perhaps the fastest 3 hours you'll ever spend listening to what sounds like a familial conversation between two master craftsmen, with the exception that nobody is asking Bismilnah to let them go. Great job, Rick (and Co.) These interviews keep getting better and better!

I met Daniel Lanois in 2005, backstage at a U2 show at MSG. It was as mind blowing as meeting Bono or The Edge.

This man is a genius of sound. Imagine being mentored in sound recording and production by Daniel Lanois… amazing video Rick. 😎👍

Possibly the best thing I’ve ever seen on RU-vid. What a fabulous interview.

@PhilSilv3rs 7 месяцев назад

What a wonderful insight into the recording process & all the various dedicated artists behind it. Daniel is a national treasure & Rick had the very good sense just to let him speak passionately about the music. Great job. Best wishes from Dublin Ireland.

@bouke7525 Год назад

this is wonderful. Halfway through and already teared up a couple of times; making sense of the world through the complexity of music. Thank you, Rick! & Daniel.

@meafordmichael 7 месяцев назад

This interview with Daniel Lanois and the dialogue between him and Rick was 3 hours of absolute pleasure, measured in a multitude of ways, all of which could be “umbrellad” under the caption “aesthetic”. Not to want to make any of us sound like musical snobs but they clearly “get it”; they resonate, they express, they play, they communicate what can only be described as ineffable (definition: “that which cannot be expressed in words”.). Thank you both for sharing with us ….

@stevemartin7096 Год назад

We need something much more expressive than simply a "like" thumbs up button. What a remarkable interview, start to finish. Thanks Rick!!

@bitslammer Год назад

I think Robbie Robertson's eponymous album is one of his best works. That's one of those "no bad song" albums in my mind. "Somewhere Down the Crazy River" is a masterpiece in my book,

@rufus_the_cat Год назад

@andywild9183 Год назад

It’s a mega album

@gchristopherklug Год назад

@albertoortiz3594 11 месяцев назад

It’s one of the best albums in history. Robertson produced by Daniel Lanois, mixed by Bob Clearmountain, mastered by Bob Ludwig. With Peter Gabriel and his musicians, U2, as guests. A masterpiece from beginning to end.

@daryllink3058 Год назад

Nothing short of outstanding! A phenomenal interviewer bringing out the best in an intriguing, engaging, an important contributor of musical gems. Well done, Rick. Keep them coming!

@victorsimpson4487 Год назад

The song "Testimony " by Robbie Robertson came to mind during this interview. Hearing the beginning of The Edge's guitar riff combined with Bono's harmonies makes it a very impressive song. Mr Lanois comes across as a very classy human being. Thank you Rick for a great interview. Cheers from Ottawa.

@rob841395 5 месяцев назад

Thankyou both so much. Daniel Lanois is one of my favourite producers. Everything sounds so interesting, alive and beautiful and so many great tracks. Thankyou for the depth and detail, which feels rare these days. The tour of the studio was fascinating and love those guitars, especially the ES-330 🔥

@HunterMann Год назад

Great interview Rick! Lanois is such a legend. I knew of him from the music he produced but my introduction to hearing him as a performer which when I was working on the CBS series “Northern exposure“. On a few of the shows we use the song by Daniel Lanois, And it even ended up on a soundtrack cassette with music highlights from the show. The song we used was “Jolie Louise”… A really beautiful song in English with a few great phrases in French Canadian (Québécois). I such a wonderful thing that you were able to do this interview with him. It’s not like some average TV superstar talk show host interviewing him which is usually lightweight and shallow, but for someone of your caliber you really mine for some gems about music, the musical process and all of the historic moments in his career so far. Bravo man!

What a perfect couple of hours - four more please. I could watch you guys all day. You really seem to have hit it off right away. What an amazing mind that man has. Love everything of his that I’ve ever heard. I am definitely going to be listening to Willie, Micah and emylou soon.

I have always heard about Daniel and his genius. Had no idea he was Canadian and from an hour and a half away in Hamilton. Watching him talk about these songs, his smile, his passion. Wow! Thank you Rick for bringing this to the world.

I've been a huge of fan of Lanois' production for decades. "In Your Eyes" is just one of the greatest songs I've ever heard sonically....
