Daniel Lanois' first album "Acadie" now available on CD at his web site (finally!)
For anyone interested, I thought I'd let you know that I got an e-mail from daniellanois.com that said he has been able to "get his album back" and has now re-released it (available on his web site daniellanois.com).
I love this album. I had it on cassette after it came out in 1989. I wore that out, and found that I couldn't buy it on CD anymore (had been out-of-print) for years. I would see used copies of it on eBay. I would always bid on it, but I was always out-bid at the last minute. (The CDs were going in the $20 range, and I've been bidding on them whenever they'd come up over the last year or so.) Perhaps Mr. Lanois himself got wind of the fact that there was a definite interest on eBay for this CD.
I just ordered it, and I can't wait to have it again. For anyone who likes his stuff, this is definitely worth having. As you know, this guy is partly responsible for so many of the great sounds we've heard from U2 over the years.
