Description

A comprehensive collection of songs that have left their mark on one of the most successful bands of all time.

Never a band to shy away from namedropping their most beloved influences, U2 remain wholly proud of incorporating other styles and forms into their own unique sound - which has all but become a genre in its own rite. And the history of the group has been a trail of musical discovery for its four founder members, each of whom now boasts a musical knowledge and taste far wider than most of their contemporaries.

So while The Ramones and The Clash have been firm favourites since the very earliest practise sessions, B.B. King, Johnny Cash and Billie Holiday all entered the fray a little later. But memories too from the era when the lads were growing up are also represented here; Frank Sinatra was rarely off the gramophone in the Hewitt household during the 1960s and 70s, and each one of this extraordinary quartet still gets a tingle down the spine when hearing again that monster hit from the glorious summer of 1976, Peter Frampton's 'Show Me The Way' - the song the band, then known as Feedback, opened their first two gigs with some 35 years ago.

Elsewhere on this collection, David Bowie rubs shoulders with Chuck Berry, Allen Ginsberg co-exists with John Lee Hooker and Bob Dylan sits close to Bo Diddley, Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and Roy Orbison.

Twenty one classic tracks in all, every one of which has played its part in informing and inspiring Dublin's finest sons to remain one of the finest bands the world has ever known.
