awesome
I like it even better than I like Acadie. This is one of my favorite top 15 albums of all time. Daniel Lanois does not get the credit he deserves for both his producing and for his own music.


Daniel Lanois Truely Amazing!
Daniel Lanois is one of my favourite artists. I listen to this album all the time even though I've had it for years. We saw him in Ottawa when he toured at the Bluesfest! Most excellent!.


Don't Burn It, Buy It...Lanois Deserves It
Give Daniel Lanois his due. . this guy has been making others sound great then he humbly applies his talents to his own music and look what happens. This album is truly a work of art. It has something for everyone and everything for some. DL uses innovation likes its found at the corner store and yet he is able to strike again and again at our inner chord that makes music so precious. This will be in my ready to listen selection for as long as I have ears. Interpret it yourself, Wynona is meant to be discovered. . . over and over again.


My Desert Island Treasure!
I feel he has taken Dylan & P. I hope my cd player is solar powered so I can listen to my favorite disc for eternity on my desert island paradise! Daniel has written & produced the soundtrack for my SOUL! I love every nuance of his production on both his & all the artists he has worked with. Gabriel to euphoric heights. I hear something fresh upon every spin. It is artists like Daniel that keep me afloat in this "Rocky World". I have purchased at least 15 copies of this masterpiece over the years and blessed many with it's grace & awesome beauty.


Atmospheric beauty
Lacking that one's wealth of enthralling songs, it nevertheless impresses with its own gems like Still Learning How To Crawl, Sleeping In The Devil's Bed and The Unbreakable Chain. Although Beauty Of Wynona is an excellent album judged on its own merits, inevitably it will be compared with the singular masterpiece Acadie. The folky song with snatches of French here is The Collection of Marie Claire while Unbreakable Chain, the moving story of a mother and son's reunion, has that same French feel. Another touching song is Lotta Love with its chiming guitars, a tale of addiction and redemption. Indian has Native American drumming and reminds me slightly of Joni Mitchell's Lakota on Chalk Mark In A Rainstorm. The production is magical, as to be expected from Lanois: atmospheric instrumentation - including evocative synths - backing his soulful voice. This is a very good album offering much in the way of stirring, memorable music and Lanois remains true to his vision.
