U2: The Complete Encyclopedia

by Mark Chatterton

While other bands have fallen by the way side, Bono’s U2 have continued to reinvent from early punk origins to the rootsy rock and soul of Rattle and Hum; from the postmodern pop of Zooropa to the classic rock of At the Ends of The Earth. Packed with rare photos and memorabilia, tour logs, places of U2 interest and a who’s who of U2 and featuring the definitive discography, this is the ultimate fans’ compendium for the greatest rock ‘n’ roll band of the post-punk age. Fresh from the success of their new hit album, U2 will be touring the US in the summer of 2001.

well this is as complete as 2001 and really is for the U2 anoraks out there and yes I include myself amongst them. A good reference point for music historians and journalists.
