Neil Young – First Listen to: ‘Le Noise’
This is a unique album from Neil Young. As producer Daniel Lanois puts it, there is no band, no overdubs, just “a man on a stool and me doing a nice job on the recording.” The result is a stunning sonic adventure.
Le Noise is, fittingly, the product of two men fascinated by sound. Ask anyone who has been to a Neil Young show, and they will tell you that you feel the music as much as you hear it. Listen to a Daniel Lanois album — or one he’s produced with Peter Gabriel, Bob Dylan or U2 — and you hear a sonic stamp. To record the album, Lanois gave Young an electro/acoustic guitar; he’d spent years perfecting the instrument’s electronics.
