Sleep Comes Like a Drug in God's Country

Author's Rating:

Pros: This is classic U2, yo. Do I really need to elaborate?

Cons: Just a few excessively quiet moments where it's hard to hear what's going on. That's all.

Bottom Line:
This is U2's 80's masterpiece - as desolate, and yet beautiful, as the desert landscape that inspired it. Read More

U2 - The Joshua Tree: ...on a dark desert highway

Author's Rating:

Pros: Buy it just for Where the Streets Have No Name – everything else is bonus

Cons: notice the lone tumbleweed as it rolls by in a gritty gust of wind…

Bottom Line:
#1 of the Top Ten Albums that molded my musical tastes, the greatest rock album ever, and the true story of the blue moon sunrise over a high desert plain Read More

If U2 were biblical characters, they'd be David AND Goliath.

Author's Rating:

Pros: Ardent, personal, impassioned

Cons: Overzealous, "Trip Through Your Wires"

Bottom Line:
Overblown and pompous as The Joshua Tree may be, these guys could make "The Thong Song" seem like an impassioned plea. Read More

One of U2's Three Pillars of Perfection

Author's Rating:

Pros: The ESSENTIAL U2 Album, has several "hits" on it, but has tracks that are even better.

Cons: I wish it had a few more tracks on it.... ;)

Mother of the disappeared... one album about America

Author's Rating:

Pros: It's one of its kind... there is no other such album

Cons: You must be kidding.. well, maybe that I can't find the singles anymore

Bottom Line:
My thoughts about this album have changed so greatly over the past months, I had no choice but to write a completely different review. Now Ima celebrate my 100. Read More

A classic. No two ways about it.

Spiritual, creative yearning, political and social expression

Author's Rating:

Pros: Some exceptional lyrics, musically fantastic.

Cons: A few stronger political songs

Bottom Line:
With these overplayed popular radio hits, don't let that spoil the sound of this captive CD. Read More

One of the best albums of the 80s.

Author's Rating:

Pros: One of the best albums in rock n' roll history.

Cons: U2 abandoned the "sound" that made this album so great in the 1990s.

Bottom Line:
Some albums survive the era in which they were recorded and just sound great anytime and anywhere. This is one of those discs. Read More

A True Masterpiece

Author's Rating:

Pros: One of the best albums ever recorded. Amazing songs, stellar production, soulful vocals, and stunning musicianship.

Cons: "Exit" feels a little out of place, but is a great song, nonetheless.

Outside is America

Author's Rating:

Pros: Clearly the first four tracks of the album, but plenty more

Cons: Only two weak songs

Bottom Line:
Starting out like a greatest hits compilation of U2's material in the 80s, but containing amazing material throughout Read More
