My input doesn't get the recognition of the OP, and I know in posting this, I'll come across as a/an A--h---. I recommended this LP months ago. I'm glad that others are enjoying it now.
Favorite music
I've been a long time fan of Daniel Lanois and only in the last months discovered the group, Black Dub.
The lead singer is Trixie Whitley, daughter of the late, great Texas blues man, Chris Whitley.
Brian Blade on drums, a phenominal artist who's work I greatly admire. This from Amazon:

Among his credits, Lanois produced Bob Dylan s Grammy winning 1997, Time Out of Mind, and U2 s anthemic 1987 breakthrough, The Joshua Tree.
Daniel has produced music for an array of genre busting artists, including Brian Eno, Neil Young, Willie Nelson, Emmylou Harris and the Neville Brothers.

I purchased the Dislocation Blues album from the suggestion above and love it, thanks so much. As I mentioned, I have been a fan of CW for many years and have most of his recordings but did not have that one. I am deeply moved by it. You can hear the damage in his voice and the passion in his playing. The pairing with Jeff Lang is perfect. Also a stellar recording. Fantastic version of Changing of the Guard. I believe it was the last record Chris Whitley made. |
Thanks Bjesien, I don't think mentioned here but Daniel Lanois is also part of Peter Gabriel "So" and Harold Budd and Brian Eno ambient music such as "Pearl" from back in 1984. http://www.allmusic.com/album/the-pearl-r799612 Daniel also produced and played on Bob Dylan "Oh Mercy," "Blood on the Track", and "Blonde on Blonde." Dylan's comeback album, and a couple AMG refer to as "two of the most influential rock records ever released." I loved Daniel Lanois art long before I realized his influence was all over the music I had chosen as my own. |
