Here’s a question:
Boy to Man Trilogy – Boy - October - War. A boy tries hard to be a man. Who will take him by the hand as he begins to enter adulthood. And as he does, he begins to see the world around him is not as idyllic as he thought, or hoped it once was. Time to sing a new song.
The Two Americas Trilogy – The Unforgettable Fire - The Joshua Tree - Rattle & Hum. Confronting the America in your consciousness, the one that you’ve been inundated with by media. Finally going there and touching and tasting it, embracing it, warts and all. You leave with ascrap book of your memories, your experiences in Central America, The Heartland and more importantly...Sun Studios.
The Nighttown Trilogy – Achtung, Baby – Zooropa – Pop. Wanting to leave the humdrum life for something better and finally going there. Immersing yourself in the lifestyle of Zooropa. And then the hangover after you’ve left the discotheque and have to go back to your real life. Not everything can be mirror balls and velvet dresses. Wake up, dead man...time to live again.
_______________ -- All That You Can’t Leave behind – How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb -- ???????? What’s this one about? Albums with long song titles? Mid life crisis? The goal of soul? Xanax? Wine? What do you think?
