Is it worth searching for and buying?

How can you call it 'the lost U2 album' when it's really the Edge's solo album for some possibly forgotten movie?

Well I wont say it does not meander and some parts are hard to get through. But moments are spectacular...
If you like the pure, free and unhindered "edge sound" playing for 45 minutes its nice. I use it to drive to.
And as for it being the lost U2 album, I think it is about how much you think the edge factors in to U2. Obviously it is not a real U2 album, but then neither is passengers.

Decent album with a few highlights, nothing to write home about, and hardly essential...

The real 'lost record' is the one Edge played on with Jah Wobble and a couple of members of Can, back around 82.

Heroine is a great song. Sinead has a beautiful voice....
Now, Snakecharmer, there's another album I know nothing about

Captive is a surprisingly beautiful soundtrack (Rowena's theme is a awesome instumental while the title theme Heroine I believe is the first time you hear Sinead by herself as this soundtrack came out in 86 and her first album came out close to 89 I think
