Hehe, I'll modify what I wrote as "How to dismantle an Atomic Bomb" is rather good - despite being from well within Bono's Jesus period. Listening to it now and it's good simple rock akin to their old days.

The band are called Lettuce and the album is entitled Crush. For those who like Tower of Power. This lot have been around since '92.

Very heavy blues / rock that's impossible to stop you feet tapping to.

Ended last night with this album, while the start is thin..., the later numbers sounded pretty good...

During workout now, the 24 bit version is worthwhile....

Every time I listen to this set I like it a lot. It's the music which is situated between two musical periods and the way it's played, recommended...
