(Gibson) Famed producer and musician Daniel Lanois has spent the last month and a half recuperating from a serious motorcycle accident.

The Canadian native was injured in early June and spent time in intensive care. The U2, Bob Dylan and Neil Young producer recently spoke to Rolling Stone about the accident � which resulted in six broken bones, a cracked pelvis and internal bleeding in his lung � and his recovery.

"I was on my bike with a friend of mine on the back and a guy coming the other way decided to turn in front of me into a variety store," Lanois said. "I veered to miss him, but I hit an industrial box on the sidewalk going 35 miles per hour. I blacked out and when I came to I was laying on my back in the parking lot and people were telling me 'don't move.' Then they hauled me away to a hospital and I had to lay there like a vegetable for three weeks." - more on this story
