Achtung, Baby!
Haven't listened to this disc in about five years... don't know why I pulled it out of the rack the other day but it has been in the car CD player since.
Not a weak tune on the disc. And Eno did a great job producing it.

U2's BEST album...bar-none!
There are songs from other albums of theirs I like... But that was their best IMO! |

U2 keeps reinventing themselves on every other album. I love Achtung Baby (as well as Bloddy Sunday, Joshua Tree, All That You Can't Leave Behind). One of the great bands.

Ya know now that you mention it, Eno is a great producer. He has been involved with some of my favorite bands, so hats off to Brian.

U2 is a great band and Eno adds such depth to the music he produces.
Check out Bowie's "Heros". |

Been to every show since Joshua Tree and loved every performance. Sometimes more than once in different stadiums or arena's. Truely love U2 and will be looking for more out of these guys.
Yes one of the greats!!!!!! |
