| What you're about to read is a collection of pointers to some of the music I've discovered on the iTunes Music Store, music I like enough that I want to share it. If you're an iPod owner and an iTunes fan (and if you aren't, what are you doing here?), maybe you'll find something new. Click on any of the CD covers to bounce over to the store and sample a few tracks. And then maybe stop by my other blog for a few well chosen words (and maybe a random snark or two). |

| Acadie / Daniel Lanois | |
|
Sometimes my memory goes horribly wrong. And occasionally that's a
good thing.
Acadie is such a moment. When I first saw the name of the album, I confused its artist with Daniel Lavoie, who performed as Frollo in both the French and English cast albums for Notre-Dame de Paris (a.k.a. the story with the hunchback). A little research revealed my mistake, and also told me that Mr. Lanois was producer for some major records by people like Peter Gabriel, Bob Dylan and U2. His own music is nicely underproduced, more folk than rock, and shows signs of his once-removed French heritage, both Canadian and Cajun. I'd call it easy listening, if that weren't a pejorative. |
