Hi Jay
1. Before telling anything more about my experiences:
There's been an interview in the guitar player a year or two ago
where Daniel tells something about his practices.
apart from that I found
2. Try out using a compressor (turn it up to it's edge)
Use a Plate Reverb
Overdrive the guitar
Try a stereo delay for a bit of U2-like spingle-sprangle
3. Don't forget Daniel's most important message when recording
music
U don't need big money to make big music
It's all in you. Look at the brasilian kids playing on tins
... you can express so much if you just get a feeling for the
stuff you make the sound with.
Good luck
Wolfgang

Or, ...when are DL and fellow Canadian Bruce Cockburn going to do
a joint
project with both lending their creative writing and guitar
abilities.

Well, of the many sounds that he has, I'm not sure which of them
is
primordal, but in general, and this is a good rule for anyone to
follow -
he tries anything. remember that ratty old no-name distortion
pedal that
you got from your cousin's freind who found it left in a practice
space?
well, give it another look, only try it in some way that you
normally
wouldn't... like panned one way through a funky filter with the
straight
guitar panned the other through a slapback delay...
If you are looking for names... he uses a boomerang delay for the
backwards
guitar you hear on Waterfall (panned one way with straight guitar
in the
other channel) and SlingBlade, and he uses a Kay Distortion pedal
on
"Orange Kay", a kay tremolo on Jimmy Was... Lots of
Korg and Lexicon
delays and reverbs, etc... The stuff that's cheap enough for you
to get,
you can't find anymore, and the stuff that you can still get
costs more
than most cars. As far as guitar amps... go for a Vox AC-30 or
some
Fender...
tubes are good... Like I said before... try some stuff. I got an
old
7 watt Gibson that's all tube and is the best thing that I run my
violin
through...

Scott Weiland has a new track on the "Great
Expectation" soundtrack. Has
anyone checked this album out yet for production credits on this
song? Has
anyone heard the whole disc? If so, how is it? I'm thinking of
purchasing
it just for the Weiland and Tori Amos tunes.
Cheers!

Hi Jay,
have been trying a bit of time to get a bit of that lanois sound
of my stuff.

To Mike (Maydelott):
Yes, I have heard one new song by Weiland recently. I heard it
while I was
home for the holliday's out of a radio station in Toronto,
Ontario (CFNY).
They mentioned Weiland, but said nothing about DL having produced
it, which is
a bit strange considering DL was transplanted to Hamilton, one
hour south of
Toronto, at 10 or so. The song title somehow got past me, but I
did learn
that the song is available on a new movie soundtrack (again, the
title has
escaped me). After coming home to Indiana (yahoo!), I heard the
song again on
a cookie-cutter "alternative" format radio station that
is broadcast out here.
Since there are no actual dj's on this station, I got no info.
about the song
at all...
As for the tune - I like it. I am not a huge STP fan, by any
means, but I
will admit to having a bit of a soft spot for some of STP's
driving guitar
"hooks". The song begins with a small string section,
possibly a quartet,
playing a waltz. An accordian a la Tom Waits begins to play over
the strings,
still to waltz time, and Weiland begins to sing. Rather simple,
signature
wall-of-sound guitar comes in eventually, blending perfectly with
the
raspiness of Weiland's voice. The chorus is wonderfully simple
"Lady, Lady,
Lady", but the way he sings it and plays guitar (I wonder if
it was DL on the
axe?) is full, heavy. While I am not sure if the Weiland song I
have now
heard twice was infact produced by DL, my instinct tells me that
it was. STP
never sounded this interesting to me...
Also, Rolling Stone recently mentioned the Weiland show that DL
played at.
Weiland was roughly quoted as saying "it was a wierd show,
all of us drug
abusers up there on stage at one time... except for Daniel, of
course..."
May the force be with you, always...
Ray

Scott Weiland Solo Set Highlights Gimme Shelter Benefit
Scott Weiland took his much- anticipated solo material for a road
test
Monday night. The occasion highlighted the 7th annual Gimme
Shelter
benefit, held at L.A.'s Roxy nightclub. Backed by a band he
introduced as the Action Girls (Peter DiStefano of Porno for
Pyros and
Daniel Lanois on guitar, Brad Meldau on piano and Victor Indrizzo
on
drums), Weiland bulldozed through six songs from his forthcoming
Atlantic album. Tentatively titled 12 Bar Blues, the disc is
being
mixed by Lanois to meet a March 17 release deadline (allstar,
Nov.
18).
Weiland added that he's so pleased with the
chemistry of the Action Girls, which formed and rehearsed for the
gig
in the space of two days, that he wants to take them on tour this
summer.

Scott Weiland Wraps Up Solo Album, Due March 17
The album is due March 17 on Atlantic. According to a label
spokesperson, Daniel Lanois was slated to remix four or five
songs
with Weiland. "They're in love with each other," says
the
spokesperson. "A&R is contstantly telling me it's a
goddamn love fest.
Daniel was brought in to work on mixing, but you never know what
will
happen in the studio. He could end up with production credits
too."
The album is being produced by Weiland and Blair Lamb, who has
worked with Sheryl Crow. Weiland, who plays everything from piano
to
guitar on the album, is backed up by drummer Victor Indrizzo, who
played with Weiland in Magnificent Bastards and also worked with
Redd
Kross, Masters of Reality, and Samiam, as well as guitarist Jim
Gilman
of the Los Angeles- based unsigned band Chicken Hawk, and two
Porno
for Pyros members -- bassist Martyn LeNoble and guitarist Peter
DiStefano. The album is peppered with bongos, accordion, and
vibrophone.
