This is a great record and you should buy it

This was our first introduction to Daniel Lanois other than as producer or, as we realized later, guest musician on other records. Every song on this album is a keeper, with the standouts being "Still Learning How to Crawl", "Sleeping in the Devil's Bed", and especially "The Collection of Marie Claire". Arrangements are wonderful, playing impeccable, Lanois' voice reminds of an old friend at the table, drinks at hand. I can't praise this record highly enough. Oh, and you've got to listen to it - ideally the first time - driving at night through some desolate area, the desert being ideal.
