ahhh the classic “yell the chord as you’re playing it”! something bassists everywhere are familiar with

Beautiful drum tones and playing!

[@simonjonasmusic8410]

[@larsweiss]

This is cool.... He played it at Posten in Odense/Denmark, so power and beautiful on a big PA system. Kyle Crane, oh man ! What a drummer

[@fretgoodampsllc2382]

I had to hit Kyle up after seeing this. Amazing drummer.

[@piikeaSanDiego]

he better be rocking a blue jean onesie

[@JeffTele]

Brian Blade had the gig before him. Tough act to follow for sure.

[@jonthebru]

Daniel Lanois, voted #1 for doing the Star Spangled Banner. Imagine that in a stadium!

[@Chris-sv8ty]

I would cry

[@TheScreamingFrog916]

Beautiful!

[@peterkufner6148]

Super. Danke

[@flashbackactivator6565]

Daniel, you wuz burnin’ it up! One of my All Time Favorite Shows was Lanois and Tortoise at the Fox Theater in Boulder. Thanks KEXP. Great recording.

[@dustboy1978]

Saw that tour at the Independent in SF. Went to see Tortoise, got my face melted by Lanois.

[@flashbackactivator6565]

Dustboy1978, He closed the show with a version of JJ Leaves L.A. that was emotive AND spacey… the highlight of the show was a soul-stirring take on Where Will I Be, which I had only known as an Emmylou Harris tune til then… A really good version of Shine, as well… I love that tune, Frozen… Thanks for your comment!

[@dustboy1978]

TBH I hadn’t really paid much attention to DL since that show, but I first heard Frozen a couple years ago and it still makes the hair stand up on my neck. I’m starting a dive into DL’s catalogue, I’ll start with the titles you listed. Thanks!

[@flashbackactivator6565]

His stuff with Brian Eno is classic.

[@DieGrotsky]

DL and Tortoise is like a dream, that's insane. North Americans yall have the best music on Earth

[@PaulvanDruten]

Great!!

[@S2Sturges]

Us mere mortals can only listen slack jawed....

[@Daddytang67]

Perfect!

[@yser65]

Yes! Perfection.

[@DDechoes87]

Yeah, this is pretty fantastic. Ethereal.

[@thomasbodenchuk3294]

that man knows Tone

[@JP-ox3yx]

Monster tone

[@lydhavet-music]

With a capital T

[@tlav1875]

Oh my goodness.

[@modularcuriosity]

He's also an amazing producer working on several albums by Brian Eno, Peter Gabriel, U2's Unforgettable Fire and Achtung Baby (and others), Bob Dylan on Time out of Mind, Emmylou Harris, Neil Young, and many others.

[@dustboy1978]

When DL lights up the pedal steel, hang on tight.

[@kuaktak]

Muscicianship at its best!

[@plasticmummyhead]

beautiful playing... 4038 on hats is genius, I'm going to try it

[@flight4845]

bad ass

[@Fluffyfluffyhead]

No mention of the players? just cameramen ....

[@DanielFries]

all right then

[@ChromatophoneNature]

Holy moly, what delay and overdrive is he using?

[@Joeyd123abc2]

It's a Korg SDD3000 rack unit for his delay. All the drive is coming from his cranked AC30 :)

[@tommyfoley]

There’s a preamp in the SDD3000 that he has set hot which drives his cranked Vox AC30 and Fender 5E3. Plus the George L E-66 pickup in his Sho-Bud is a humbucker that runs on the hot side.

[@Chris-sv8ty]

​@@tommyfoleydo you know how he's making the volume swell like that? Sounds like he is using a volume pedal or is the volume knob on his guitar?

[@ChromatophoneNature]

Is this song on an album?

[@DanielFries]

I believe this may be "The Maker" kzbin.info/www/bejne/rV6tpXSZpbCnj7M. Which was also in the end credits of a great movie.. maybe that billy bob t movie "all right then"

[@nicodemop3008]

Lanois ...otra cosa...poder y profundidad. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJjFl5SaidGVlaM

[@scoremotion]

Maybe I missed it but… did they not credit the musicians?

[@genistgn853]

How is this technique called?

[@lisacolbert5987]

You know, you look at a person and think you've got an inkling of a vague idea of what sort of person they might be. What depth (or not) they might have in them. Not saying that Mr. Lanois' style of dress or whatever is off-putting , not at all. It's just that, I know if I were to see him on the bus, in Seattle say, and not recognize him right away , I'd not imagine this fellow having this sort of music in him. But there you go.

[@markbutcher4100]

Lisa Colbert I wondered if he was a fan of Wiley coyote

[@lastnamefirst4035]

And there you be

[@fillgregjjx2540]

Шарман......

[@lowrezable]

El taurus tocado a mano...

[@bingefeller]

Is this from an album or anything?

[@jiujitsu94]

Fuck.

[@tjpopp9071]

Copper head

[@warpspeed9877]

And this... my friends is the way REAL music is made. And two people should be watching Beyonce videos instead of this.

[@Suburb_hell]

I wish this was available in streaming platforms

[@Suburb_hell]

Been a fan ever since I heard Brian Enos Silver morning, which I could play over and over. If anyone knows any similar tracks to that by Daniel please let me know. ❤
