“When Dan and I picked him up at the airport, we did it in disguise,” Brian recalls. “We pretended we were two other people who had been sent to pick him up. We had spent about a day rehearsing this. We went and got a hold of all sorts of new clothes, developed new ways of walking and talking.” When the time came to focus on the music, the trio surrounded themselves with the imagery of space. Roger recalls watching reels that Reinert sent over, but Brian remembers focusing more on still photos. “I find the photographs more inspiring somehow,” he says. “We had pictures stuck up round the studio, and the way it worked was that a piece of music would start to develop, and one of us would say, ‘Look at that picture there.
“Commerciality was the last thing from our minds,” Lanois says. “We just wanted the most beautiful music that would put people in a very special place. … That’s the job of music to want to elevate someone to the point of wanting to make a bit of a difference, even if it’s jumping up and down.” “It’s an ideal process, because Brian loves fiddling around with things,” Roger says. “He’s a genius at that.”
