U2Pt.3
So for go number two and a half dozen, I am finding a lot of retro sounds in the album. It seems they have gone pre-Joshua tree with a lot of their tendencies in voice and instrument. As they move forward and integrate these sounds soundly, I must admit it is quite successful. I read somewhere online that Brian Eno and that other guy were heavily involved in this album. Either way, it seems that this album will find its rightful home in every U2 fan's collection. My rating after roughly two full days of listening: 8/10, up from probably a 5 or 6 the first time I listened to it. As it ranks against the other U2 albums, I dare say it now ranks in that top 7 at least.

ReplyDeleteVery interested in a Skeletor. I found some while there that weren't in too good a shape, but I totally forgot to grab one!
ReplyDeleteI saved 2 or 3 skeletors, and I haven't had too much interest in this album maybe I should investigate!?!?
