I’m clearly in the minority…and mostly Fan Type 2🤣🤣

I actually haven't listened to U2 in a while. They do have some good tunes but there is SO much great music out there, getting rotation in is hard to do sometimes.

That’s the truth. While I love many of their songs, U2 is not the band to play if you want to hear what your system is capable of.

For as much as we (most of us anyway) love Pink Floyd, going to a Roger Waters concert these days will get you bombarded with some extremely left-wing political messages, visually and verbally. I think certain artists like to push a message.
I am not one who enjoys that, either right or left views. I just want the music.

I have found that out with many of the bands I used to listen too often, unfortunately.
Tom~ In search of accurate reproduction of music. Real sound is my reference and while perfection may not be attainable? If I chase it, I might just catch excellence. ~ -

Wait, what? Is that on the average -- or is that the genotype (or phenotype) of individual fans?
The latter would be kind of... troubling.
On the other hand, I guess they would've been a little ahead of their time.

Argus is a very good album.
The photographer who posted the image, Klaus Hiltscher, said in the caption:In my list of the ten best Rock Albums of all times !!!
Hiltscher's Flickr account is pretty cool. Lots and lots of detailed photos of many, many different albums, generally well known but some pretty obscure. A treasure trove for LP completists who like to look, I'd opine.

I have two (2) problems with U2 - 1. none of their stuff is recorded or mixed particularly well, and 2. The fact the “The Edge” is so often mentioned in the “best guitarist” discussions… I mean really?"Conservative Libertarians love the country, progressive leftists love the government." - Andrew Wilkow
