The Mystery of Lanois (16 January 1990): Daniel Lanois Brian Eno Peter Gabriel Bob Neville Brothers

A CBC Man Alive profile of Daniel Lanois presented by Peter Downie, with contributions from Daniel and Bob Lanois, Brian Eno, Peter Gabriel, and Charles and Aaron Neville; Roger Eno also appears. This video was originally uploaded by another channel that got shut down, and the University's inept researcher forgot to make a note of that channel's name. Bad Researcher! Video includes rare footage of Lanois not wearing a hat indoors.

Awesome...love my brother Dan Lanois! Blessed to have him in my life as a friend and inspiration for so many years.

This was a great find on UA-cam! "Acadie" is one of my favorite albums. He is such an influential producer - nice to see him in interviews here around the time he was making that great album.

I would love to hear Daniel Lanois take on Ren... Ren Gill.
That would be a musical collaboration for the ages...
Check out Rick Beato's 2023 extensive interview with Lanois.

Found out about Daniel through his work with Dylan and EmmyLou.... hi is atmospheric production was spell binding. Friday Night Lights Sonho Dorato, and some youtube videos of his concert from '89, (best, and most relaxed, grooves ever), Acadie...He's one of my favorites, now, along with Gordon Lightfoot..and from what I hear, he's one of the most humble, and nicest people on the planet.

Hmmm … new appreciation for Brian Eno. Wise philosopher

[@laurentmeiller5171]

when i'm too angry and tired,
i lay on the sofa
i close my eyes and i wish i'll travel in the time
i listen "Acadie"
and i'm in peace
merci Daniel

Well spotted comment in the description about the "sans Chappeau à l'intérieur" It's good for people to see the earlier software versions, this video is from the era of Lanois 3.0™
