@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.

@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.

@paulgallagherexpress Год назад

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?

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.

This is probably the most important contemporary Music History interview ever recorded! I've been a Musician for 45 years and NEVER learned as much in a YEAR as this 3 hours taught me -- Lanois is the Yoda of high-end modern music. The word 'Genius' isn't sufficient to describe him. You've reached the highest level Rick, this is HISTORICAL! I'm VERY happy for you!

As a 16/17 year old (1988) Hamilton boy, I remember driving down Main St East, and every time we passed by Grant Ave studios (which was just off Main St down by Ivor Wynne Stadium, now Tim Hortons Field), it became automatic for us to look down the road to see if any Limos or fancy cars were parked out front. The driver might say, “Anything?” And we’d usually reply, “Nah”, and keep driving. But every once in a while, we might shout, “Turn around!” And we’d head back to try and get a glimpse of someone famous. Never did. But that might make the memory of it all even more special. 😊 Lanois was a local gem. Now he’s an international treasure.

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 generosity during interviews is immense. It often seems that the people Rick interviews have little, or no idea, of the intellect and nearly complete depth of knowledge Rick brings to the interview. So many of his interviewees (there are "peer" exceptions, of course) respond to Rick's questions the way they would respond to a clueless fan while Rick can, easily, with casual effort, think through and analyze the subject matter at much, much deeper levels. This isn't written to take anything away from the genuinely great artists Rick interviews. It's just that Rick exerts zero ego during the interviews and radiates genuine fascination and joy, in total "presence", of the interaction. It's absolutely great on so many levels. Rick is one of a kind. Wonderful!

When i walked into the control room as he was paying me i heard the sounds of jets landing & taking off over the speakers. He had asked if i wanted to stay to have a listen & i apologized as i had another session to go to. As i was leaving he said Rik i would like you to meet the gentleman who recorded those sounds and sitting on the couch in front of the mixing board was Brian Eno. This was just before he started working with Brian & U2. Loved working with him & his sweet brother Bob. We had some great times together:)

Its one of the few times i've actually sat and watched a three hour interview and not faded out. so great to have an interview that is not to a pre agreed agenda set by a PR person, just about the creation of great music. Great job Rick and Daniel, hope there are more to come.

@DirtyWindshieldSeries Год назад

Daniel Lanois, along with Brian Eno, defined what was Best about the 80s in terms of sound. The Unforgettable Fire, So, The Joshua Tree, and Robbie Robertson's Debut Solo made 1984 to 1987 so memorable. It's hard to believe those Recordings are nearing 40 years old. 40 years back from those years would take us back to the Big Band Sound of the 40s. What a time it was, to be around as a Teenager, back then. Thank You, to both Daniel and Rick, for this Great Interview! It was Epic!

This is Gold. Rick is a great interviewer and 3 hours just flies by. Daniel is so humble as he listens back to the masterpieces that he co-created. What a joy to observe someone that has no ego with all of the success he has had. Thank you Rick and Daniel for sharing your gifts with us. Very inspirational. 🙏 🙏

I used to gig at a club in Toronto on Monday nights in 2007-8, and for about a 4-6 month period Dan would come in periodically and hang with us. I'm a bass player and he would gravitate toward me and had so many insightful things to say. I still use the techniques he taught me with volume and dynamics. He's a gem and as a Canadian I'm so proud to have him a s a fellow countryman. Great interview Rick.

@davidrobinson5180 Год назад

As a bass player, I would love to know the basic advice you use from him.

@jaycianfrini77 Год назад

@@davidrobinson5180 mostly about keeping the bass in the amp up and the volume up and controlling it with your fingers. I was always chasing tone through mids and highs and he spoke to me about the bass being round, warm, and powerful. He kept referencing to the reggae guys. No effects. Old strings. 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.

I'm halfway through the interview and it's simply extraordinary. This is such an important record and document of one of the few truly great music producers - someone who has shaped the sound of our lives over the past 40 years. Daniel Lanois himself is so full of grace and warmth, and clearly has such an abiding passion for his work and the creative process. Kudos to you, Rick, for creating this amazing quality of content, It is so important and only to be found here. No tv channel would dedicate so much time and space to this kind of subject, but this will be a treasure trove for other musicians, producers and music-lovers to reflect on. It would be wonderful if you could talk with someone like Paul McCartney in this style. In fact, it wouldn't just be of interest, it would be of great value and benefit for future generations.

What an amazing and insightful interview. Incredible that Mr Lanois remembers all those finer details of his session recordings from at times decades past. Wish there was at least some minor mention on his more recent work on soundtracks, such as Red Dead Redemption 2 which have brought grown men to tears in their painful beauty. Outstanding, Mr Beato and the generosity and transparency of these artists is making this channel one of my absolute favorite content to watch of any media.

Great job Rick, on this amazing & comprehensive interview with Daniel Lanois. It's great because of your abilities and knowledge of Daniel and recording in general. No one else could have done this. It's an interview for the ages in my humble opinion. I was fortunate enough to meet Daniel in 1992 before one of his shows. I have been a fan for a long time. I also got to tour Grant Avenue studio, his former studio for several hours because my cousin recorded there and knew the new owner. Daniel built and recorded there for years, honing some incredible techniques in the process. I had an amazing day at Grant Ave. All the best to you Rick and continued success. Your posts are always outstanding, but this one is off the charts, even for you.

As a boy from the Gatineau area, Daniel Lanois is arguably our greatest export from this region, if not from Canada. Keep up the great work!

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!

@christopherkent6512 Год назад

Rick, we music lovers and musicians are so blessed to have availability to your knowledge, talents and stature amongst others in the music industry in these videos. I was completely surprised to hear the term “dynamic headroom” used in your conversation, knowing that in today’s music industry they max out everything so that there are no dynamics. Not the engineers fault but more the record companies who just want LOUD. One wonders what magic might have happened if he and the Beatles happened to be in the same room at some point in time?love the show and the content, it never gets tiring or boring. Keep up the great work.

I’m 45 years old. SO and Joshua tree were the first few albums my dad played me on a very ‘fancy’ 16-bit CD player in an era when there were very few CD’s available to buy in the UK. Booming out on two speakers. I knew I wanted to be a musician at that point. Those albums are just behemoths in terms of production and I still hear them in my ears. This is a treasure of an interview.

I can’t play a note and don’t really listen to music but a magical 3 hours I did not want to end.

@paulfenn2979 3 месяца назад

Some 10 years ago a musician friend introduced me to a YT video of Lanois, calling him 'my Messiah.' I'd heard of him, but didn't really know what he'd done -- and I'm Canadian... yes, the shame, so deep. It was a live version of The Maker. I was knocked off my perch by the subtlety, sophistication and restrained nature of the chops on display. And that soul... it's got a deeply Quebecois thread running through it, something ancient that seeps through in all he touches. Since then, I have dived headlong into all kinds of Lanois, like the incredible Black Dub project, which led to me tracking Tracy's and Brian Blade's careers, then Emmylou and on and on down the ever-inviting bunny hole. Hell, even a new appreciation of U2, which I'd cleansed from my system due to decades of (over)listening. But this meeting proved a rare event. I think Rick has seized something magical with his interviewing approach, the 'egolessness' of it, which draws out the mature and noble qualities in the musicians he talks to. He's especially adept at unlocking them from their usual interview modes to deliver emotionally moving, technically explanatory and damn inspiring discussions. This brings the inner worlds of music to young musicians and schmucks like me who like to dive into the 'back 40' of songs to appreciate them more profoundly.

@MarcBeland Год назад
