    B-Side U2: 'Medium, Rare and Remastered'

    BSides Thanks for all the great info; I had 'Lady with the Spinning Head' on last night actually, I have the BSides disc of the 'Achtung Baby' uber deluxe, and mighty fine it is too! A query though on it, the songwriting credits, besides 'Paint it Black', 'Fortunate Son' and 'Satellite of Love'...

    B-Side U2: 'Medium, Rare and Remastered'

    I'm only beginning to discover B-Side U2; B-Sides are or can be amazing; almost an alternate recording history of a favourite band. And more often than not, it's mostly the fans that hear these, an extra layer the fans can enjoy - released on singles, but obscure in a way as casuals don't seek...

    Did I miss the "I really hate this album" thread?

    I re-listened to the album this weekend along with that of another veteran band and their new album, Manic Street Preachers 'Futurology' (which is absolutely fantastic I think, as is it's sister album, 2013's 'Rewind the Film') SOI I still think is perhaps the '2's best album since POP; I am a...
