I've had to force myself to check the new stuff out, genuinely expecting disappointment. At this point, A GOOD TRACK FROM U2 makes a change!

In my opinion, while the rot was clearly starting to set in circa ZOOROPA, their last album (how to dismantle a blah blah blah) was enough to put me off them for good).

Well, I'm pleased to be able to agree with you, as I thought they were shot after two albums of utterly uninspired drivel, except for 'New York'. If I remove a couple of tracks, it's not a bad album at all, definitely a grower. P!sses on the last two sh!t-piles.

An open minded, reasonable, varied group of people.



Apart from Queen, obviously, who, in the vernacular of my 16-year-old daughter, bite ass. (Sings “Crazy Little Thing Called Love”, then superglues lips together).

In any case, I’m enjoying the new U2 album. The riff-tastic “Stand Up Comedy” (Audioslave lite) and “Magnificent” appeal most at this stage.

I’m confused now. Did a bit of digging, and I’ve found evidence that “11 O’Clock” was released in the UK & Ireland at the same time.



Ignore me. I’m probably wrong!

==========================

Sort of. “11 O’Clock” & “A Day Without Me” were issued in the UK after “Boy” had taken off (and therefore after “I Will Follow”, along with the yellow vinyl four-packs. Original Irish issues are different catalogue & matrix numbers.



Or so some spod told me...



And Eno – his first 4 solo LPs are fantastic! One of my favourite Fripp guitar solos is on “Baby’s On Fire”, from “Here Come The Warm Jets”.

and I own all of them :(
wasn't a day without me a 'UK' single though?

i am also an eno fan (strictly only his work after i met him), and i personally think he saved their career a few times ;)

Erratum : they’d actually released 4 in Ireland before “I Will Follow” : the “3” EP, “Another Day”, “11 O’Clock Tick Tock” and “A Day Without Me”.

================

Yes, “I Will Follow” was their first UK single, although they’d released three singles by that stage in Ireland.
