U 2 - Here again

The new U2 work "songs of innocence" is now available !!
I read a lot of comments (most of them negatives) about the presentation with Apple I- phone 6, the choice to release the album free on i-tunes, the commercial turn  of U2 for the business and bla..bla...bla...

What it's interesting for me is the music and the fact is that I'm listening "songs of innonence" since days and I like it. Yes, it is a commercial and easy listening music, nothing really new but  .....U2 are here again.  It seems yesterday  (... really about 30 years ago!!)  I saw their concert in Rome together with Pretenders and Big Audio Dynamite. Other times, other contest but the music is not so different.

TELEVISION - Marquee Moon

I am listening to this old record ( 1977) to be prepared for a June 2014 event. TELEVISION will be on tour with  a date in Milan to play again Marquee Moon songs. You can like or not TELEVISION sound with guitar goimg up and down and Tom shouting voice but anyway  it  was something original and different in the music scene of that period. I consider Tom Verlaine a musician out of any scheme.

Marquee Moon is considered a piece of music history (both the song and the LP) and I hope to listen and see something worthy of fame that this work has.
