We were way into that album back in 1983. Now - I think the only song I would listen to is Born Again.

What's also great is that BBC footage (1970/1971) you can watch on Youtube. I think the early stuff is the best in a lot of ways.

That's right. As they already had the sleeves printed up. (Was that the reason - I forget.)

Speaking of that - I should watch Torchwood again.

I'm still working my way through all the seasons. I can't recall where I left off. I think I am somewhere in Season 24.

I am old. I do. I was trying to recall when there was 3 before.

I think it's more jarring that there are 3 companions to deal with. I have not seen the 3rd episode yet. I wish they had not changed the day the show is broadcast.

It's very interesting. It even has some stuff about the album cover - if I recall.

It's back now. It did go away. I figured there was some bullshit going on. I look at that site many times a day. And one day it was gone - replaced with a message that said "goodbye". It never ceases to amaze that a place is created online that becomes something very important - and then gets zapped due to one person's decision.

The plot thickens. . .

That's after Bono fell and hurt his arm. I recall there is video of them taking him to the hospital.

I can't recall where I got that. Maybe The Pirate Bay. It had to have been a long time ago.

The album was in October - the film in November (I think).

There are a lot of Rattle and Hum out-takes. I think most of them are on YT now. Or they were. I had some U2 concerts saved in my YT and they have disappeared.

There is speculation they may do some sort of box-set anniversary release.

I saw it twice in the theater. And later on bought the VHS/cassette at a department store. I still have them. I still think it's one of the greatest concert films of all time.

Don't mistake coincidence for fate.

I recall seeing that film years ago. Of course - later on John said that song was about himself and not Paul.

I was wondering about that also. I recall Jeff or Spencer saying in an interview a few years ago that they had another TWEEDY album finished. Of course there is also that live Uncle Tupelo album that was talked about.

Is it just coincidence that along with all the Paul stuff in the news the clip from the Imagine re-release happens to be How Do You Sleep?

I may check it out if it appears on my local library's e-book site.

Has anyone read that Barlow book?
