Product Description
Here Is What Is is a sonic journey that captures the art of making a record by
one of the most distinctive and celebrated producers of our time. Directed by Adam Volick, Adam Samuels and Lanois, the film debuted at the 2007 Toronto Film Festival and offers viewers a rare chance to see Lanois at work behind a soundboard. The film opens up with a timeless piano performance by Garth Hudson, one of Canada s finest pianists. Lanois then journeys from Toronto to Los Angeles to Shreveport, LA where he joins Brian Blade s father at the Zion Baptist Church for a roaring rendition of This May Be The Last Time. The film also journeys with Lanois to Morocco where he and mentor Brian Eno reminisce and record U2 in a stunning courtyard. The songs featured on Here Is What Is, also comprise Lanois sixth full-length album released on March 18. From the inquisitive Where Will I Be to the emotive sounds of Lovechild, Here Is What Is features a collection of viscerally powerful and beautiful tracks that capture Lanois signature musical sensibilities and virtuosity.

Lanois et al are Undeniable, Filmaking So-So May 21, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
If you're at all interested in Daniel Lanois, then clearly you must own this DVD. The filmmaking may not blow your mind, but the wonderful musicianship and the gentle and thoughtful spirit of the artist likely will. My favorite part, oddly enough, are the special features, where it's REALLY about the music, and specifically about Brian Blade, who's a giant among artists. I thoroughly recommend this, despite any minor shortcomings.
