Gagel worked the closest with E on the record, but Lang’s contribution should not be diminished. Lang had come to Los Angeles in the early Seventies and then moved there permanently in 1978, eventually becoming a studio musician and composer for films and animated kids’ shows. He and E had worked together on A Man Called E and Electro-Shock Blues. And he made a crucial impact on Daisies, arranging and conducting the album’s prominent horns and strings.

“E had a pretty good idea of which songs he wanted strings on and which he wanted brass on,” Lang told Sound On Sound. “We also talked about styles. He’s a big Randy Newman fan, as am I, so we used him as a reference point. Randy is the perfect example of somebody who writes like that; his harmony is always very clear and his voicings are just beautiful.”
