oh and I have always had a hard time defining jeff Buckley. I think of him as a renaissance man. If that makes any sense, he has his own sound and it comes from everywhere, sometimes I even hear the blues or jazz in his stuff.

Definitely. I didn't mean to imply some sort of direct link between JB and U2, I just meant that I don't think he would have sounded exactly the way he did had U2 never existed.

And I agree, the latest U2 album was less than stellar. I bought it and listened to it maybe three times. It's sat on my shelf ever since (much like AS). But to me, that doesn't discount their earlier work in the slightest. Achtung Baby and The Joshua Tree and War and The Unforgettable Fire. All amazing works of art, any way you slice them.

And not a Radiohead fan? You crazy lady. I personally think they come more from the Beatles school - started out with simple, quality pop/rock songwriting, but became more interested in experimental sounds and socially conscious lyrics later in their career. Just my take.
