of those recordings on the road. They’re very
beautiful. I think it might be some of my best
work in terms of composition and sonic
innovation. Part of me wants to get back to
the studio to finish that.
IE: Is it steel-focused composition like “J.J.
Leaves LA,” or sonic exploration like
“Belladonna?”
Daniel Lanois: It's got a little “J.J. Leaves LA”
in it. I've discovered some new places to go
to on the steel guitar. These compositions
have entered a new chapter of melody. Some
of it’s heavily processed, and some of it’s
very pure. I'm so excited that after all these
years of playing that instrument that I would
find a new place to go for expression. Not
only do I enjoy a lot, but I think it's unique
given the more liquid approach that I have
to the instrument.
