The Neil Young/Daniel Lanois Interview

Here's a great interview with Neil Young and producer Daniel Lanois, where Neil describes the making of his new album. There are plenty of words of wisdom, but maybe the best one is, "They get technically better, but spiritually further from source," when describing musicians who practice so much that they lose sight of why they're doing it in the first place.

The other cool thing is that Neil only did 2 takes for each song on the album. You gotta love someone who's so comfortable with himself as an artist to be able to do that.
