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.

The Daniel Lanois collaboration with Neil Young on last year's "Le Noise" was very interesting

Jazdoc,

I considered "Le Noise", I'm a fan of both Neil Young and Daniel Lanois. Granted I did not hear it properly but sample tracks at AMG and Amazon did not inspire me to buy.

A search for the LP turned up amazingly steep prices and I forgot about it after that.

Did you buy it? Like it?

A quick correction, he produced/played on Dylan's Time Out Of Mind and Oh Mercy, not Blonde on Blonde or Blood On The Tracks. All great albums!

Not that anyone asked but I do not care too much for Le Noise. Both artists have done much much better work and I had hoped for more from the collaboration. I actually find it quite boring and monotonous.
