Ultimate U2, 80's style

Advantages: see opinion
Disadvantages: see opinion

The title is taken from the lyrics of Bullet The Blue Sky, and describes the sound of gunfire. This album does indeed go off like a shotgun.

Taken from the 1988 film that follows their live performances over the previous two years, the double album contains 17 top tracks, although they don't include the phenomenal "Sunday Bloody Sunday" which was peformed in an emotionally wrought way during an American concert the day after ...
...later on.

The first track is a live version of "Helter Skelter" which is introduced by Bono saying "This is a song that Charles Manson stole from the Beatles, we're stealing it back." (The classic rock song was included on the Beatle's White Album and the drug addled mind of serial killer and Family leader, Charles Manson, compelled him to tell his followers that this was talking of the race war that he himself ... more

A Review Of U2's "Rattle & Hum"

Advantages: Old hits and superb new tracks
Disadvantages: A pointless snippet of Jimi Hendrix playing "The Star Spangled Banner"

OVERVIEW --------------- I can see that it's been over three years since the last review of probably MY favourite ever rock album. Released in 1988, let's see how it all stacks up in 2004: CONCEPT --------------------- This album includes live hits from their world tour of 1988 to promote the previous year's "Joshua Tree" album. New tracks written and recorded on the road are also included in "studio form". A live track followed by a studio ...
...that minor criticism put you off. The live tracks ("Pride", "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For") are electrifying and breathe new life into them. The previously unheard tracks are generally ace. Here's a breakdown of the tracks with marks out of five. HELTER SKELTER -------------------------- A live cover of the Beatles cut from "The White Album". It starts with Bono informing, "here's a song Charles Manson stole from Beatles. We're stealing ...

U2 Meet America

Advantages: More Great Songs both Live and in the Studio, proof that U2 could cut it with the best
Disadvantages: None

This album cam after U2's mega breakthroughs of "THe Unforgettable Fire" and "The Joshua Tree". It was accompanied by a film that caused a lot of ill will as the band came across as pompous and pretentious. After the stadium rock of the previous albums this was a "back to the roots" excercise in which U2 toured America to discover their R'n'B and Soul influences. The album is part live and part studio and contains both old and new material. The ...
...chords, and three minutes of blistering rock, proving the band needed nothing but the absolute basics to sound absolutely awesome. The album opens with a live cover of the Beatles "Helter Skelter" which is every bit as frightening as the original, especially with its associations with the Manson "family". This segues into a beuatiful acoustic ballad "Van Diemen's Land" about transported criminals. They also cover Bob Dylan's "All Along The Watchtower", ...

tour de force

Advantages: tour de force
Disadvantages: long

Rattle and Hum is U2s best album by miles, and the only album which is a) partly live and b) a double album that I have ever played regularly. The songs are outstanding, the live music superbly integrated with the studio work - all those dinosaur bands, take note, it CAN be done ! Most of all, this is an album which combines a musical odyssey, homage to heros and wonderfull originality into a seamless whole. The video is equally good, but the album ...

...some really good stuff. Unfortunately Rattle and Hum is not one of their good albums. In my opinion Rattle and Hum is a bit ''look at us we're superstars so we can release any old rubbish''. U2 are a talented band but they havent shown their real talent on this album. Yes there are some good songs on the album eg angel of harlem and I still havent found what I'm looking for... but it isnt very well produced and also has several very weak songs. They ...

Reviews which might be of interest for "Rattle And Hum - U2"

An experiment too far!

Advantages: It's a U2 album!
Disadvantages: It's the worst U2 album!

U2 are arguably the world's greatest band and creators of countless classic albums, but even they are prone to the odd moment of madness. Zooropa is the most disappointing album I have ever bought. Usually when buying a U2 album, you are guaranteed quality, but not this time. After the success of The Joshua Tree and Rattle and Hum, U2 began to move away from their traditional "passionate rock" and began to experiment with a different sound. Achtung Baby still just about made the grade, but Zooropa is simply trying too hard to be different and seems a bit rushed. It was undoubtedly an experimental album and the experiment failed miserably. It is an album with no more than 2 reasonable songs on it. The rest of the album wouldn't be good enough to even be considered for the average U2 B side. The music of U2 is played daily ...

Review of Zooropa - U2

Are You Ready For The Laughing Gas

Advantages: A Change of Direction but still groundbreaking and exhilarating and U2
Disadvantages: None

After their trip into the American heartlands to rediscover their roots on the "Rattle and Hum" U2 returned home for their next foray into the recording studio. Well they overshot by several hundred miles and ended up in Berlin / East Germany for "Achtung Baby" as you may have guessed from the title. Like Bowie and Eno on the Low album they took in the industrial influences for the latest instalment in their musical journey. The cover is a montage of industrial images, graffiti , and garishly coloured band pictures, included a controversial full frontal picture of a certain band member that leaves his religion in no doubt (this is on the back cover).. The album opens very quietly with a distant cowbell (musicians cowbell not cow's cowbell) , which is joined by some industrial noise and superb slurring guitar riff by the Edge ...

Review of Achtung Baby - U2

I got hit by a Bat out of Hell........

Advantages: Meatloaf........
Disadvantages: None............

a hot summer night would you offer yourself to the wolf with the red roses?" "Yes"..... "I bet you say that to all the boys....." Launch into a really bangin' tune, great lyrics, thumping beat, great stuff....... Razors Edge........ Another great tune by the master of rock, "We're all looking for, the razors edge...." Paradise By The Dashboard Light.... i)Paradise.... ii)Let Me Sleep On It.... iii)Praying For The End Of Time.... This song is broken down into three parts, all about a guy who basically wants to get laid....... and is having trouble with his girl, she wants to know if he loves her before she goes any further........ a great number, great tune, lyrics outstanding. Like I said, I love Meatloaf. For interest, track 2, Read 'Em And Weep, was produced by Jimmy Iovine, who produced Rattle'N'Hum for U2 ...
