Rockets != Acadie? great music, but. . . this isn't Rockets, it's Acadie. I think Amazon MP3 downloads may be a little buggy. 1. Still Water 4:29 2. The Maker 4:13 3. O Marie 3:13 4.

Space Kay. another quality work from a master Really a series of reworked prior releases (so the 'new' factor may underwhelm) but the quality of his work is there as always. Yet another quality work by Daniel Lanois. . "rockets," Lanois in an intimate performance Daniel Lanois creates intimate and spontaneous moods through "live studio and alternative takes. "rockets" is a definitive addition to any audiophile's collection. " One listen to the live performance of "jj leaves la" convinced me to make the purchase. "sweet soul honey" and "rockets" evince some edgier electric guitar riffs by Lanois. These songs interestingly balance out the subtler acoustic works on the cd. I've been amazed by Lanois' talent ever since I heard "SILVER MORNING" on Brian Eno's "Apollo" in 1983. I'm glad he's received the recognition that he so well deserves. . . do yourself a favor, get "rockets"!!!.
