Post-War, Mr. Eno helped produce Unforgettable Fire, The Joshua Tree, Achtung Baby, and All That You Can't Leave Behind with mebbe a smidgeon of Zooropa (Can't remember off the top of my head). I've heard people lay the praise on Eno and not U2 for essentially helping create the sound and innovations that we're pretty much used too expecting from U2. Henry Rollins for example essentially said this. Eno is given credit for helping to make Robert Fripp's sound as well (a influential guitarist), etc.
So what do people think? Is Eno really the reason for U2's success/ sound? How much should Eno get credit for post-War U2? Wasn't Lanois also Eno's understudy? People in the know have any idea?
