Subject: building the wrecking ball

I taped this program on PBS a while back, and finally had a chance to 
watch it last night.  WOW.  I am totally impressed with everything.  
Kingsway is incredibly beautiful - it looks nothing like a recording studio.

I'd love to go there sometime.

I'd really like to track down the Rocky World video now!

Subject: digest #68

I'm about a week behind in e-mail so this is is reponse to Digest #68.
Angela Pancella asked about Emmylou on the LJ record.  Her backing
vocals should be decipherable on tracks 9 and 10.
Mant thanks to Graham Verdon for posting the interview!  I was really
excited to hear about Dan spending time in JA.  My _all-time_ favorite
rhythm section is the Jamaican drum and bass duo of Sly Dunbar and Robbie
Shakespeare (who have become rather prolific producers themselves in 
recent years.)  The thought of Dan possibly working with them or any 
Jamaican artist would be a musical dream come true for me.  Are there 
any other reggae connoisseurs on this list?

I think that this would be a potentially fascinating collaboration, although
the Dust Brothers are definitely no slouches either.  I'd also like to see
another collaboration between Lanois and Peter Gabriel.  I do like Beck's
sense of energy and motion in his songs, and would definitely want DL to keep
that energy going but add his spin on it.  I notice that many of the DL
productions seem to have a whole different energy to it (not that this is
necessarily bad or good or whatever), but I wonder how Beck would sound with
more loping, slightly laid-back sorts of grooves?  It still might be
cool...anyway, random thoughts before I dive back into studying for finals.

Dear Kenley and DL friends,

Anyone heard the Oryema/ DL collab that is rumoured to have been 
released in the US. Malaysia is not on the hitlist for such 
releases....surprise, surprise.
Please feed back!  you State side folks.

Whilst downunder in Aus recently.....I read an interview with U2 in a 
music magazine tracing their evolution / metamorphosis from the early 
days to the present and was perturbed not to see a single reference 
to our man in the entire article....all production credit as it were 
was heaped on Eno !!
I sense a kind of fallout between them / attempt at erasing the past.

Can anyone tell me how to get hold of the single ..Bonne este...Bella 
or something to that effect that he plays at the start of the ROCKY 
WORLD video.

There is also a demo CD that Dan put out .....of ambient tracks 
potentially for film soundtracks that is worth listening to.
It includes ` New World Dream ' which was dedicated to Mandela and 
played at Wembley after his release by the DL band...AWESOME.

Suren

Bon Jour All - 

1. Subject: The Web Site
- The new web site looks great Kenley. Simple, functional and 
attractive. Keep up the great work. 

2. Subject: Studio address - Does anyone have the exact street address 
of Daniel's studio in New Orleans? 
- The studio is called Kingway Studios it's somewhat on the edges 
of the French Quarter.  It's not in the phone book (I know as I checked 
last time I was in town) so no luck on the exact address. As far as I 
know it's a full time studio but I've also heard through the grapevine 
that Mr. Lanois doesn't own the place any longer. So if you're going 
there to say hi to him, you'd probably have better luck in LA. (-:

3. Subject: Daniel & Ani Difranco
- There is no collaboration between Ani and Daniel on Ani's latest 
double-live disc but as Gina opined, it's still worth picking up (as 
is the case with just about everything else that "righteous babe" 
puts out, imho).

best, 
David

                  - in vino veritas -

[I believe it is in Crescent City - Kenley]

The soundtrack to Dune was by Toto, believe it or not. There is the Eno
track called "Prophecy Theme". I'm fairly sure Lanois was not involved. 

Just thought I'd clear this one up for you folks.

Subject: Re: Sling Blade

I've just got my copy of Sling Blade - things take a while to get to 
this neck of the Australian woods.  What a great and pleasant musical 
trip this is!

As a rule, soundtracks are usually high on drama but thin on new 
ideas.  However, despite Jimmy Was sounding like a reworked Still Water, 
despite The Maker making another appearance, despite 79 seconds of 
Emmylou Harris, and despite a gratuitous Booker T track, Daniel's 
Sling Blade actually works.  Effortlessly and in his typically 
low-key ambient pace.  Is Lanois, the JJ Cale of the 90s?
