In the recording studio, producer Daniel Lanois imbues material by his clients–U2, Bob Dylan and Peter Gabriel among them–with a warm, womblike glow that creates the illusion of intimacy out of a careful wrangling of modern technology.

Expect to enter Lanois’ world at the Silver Leaf, and expect to not want to leave.
