U2's " War" Turns 30
It is almost impossible for me to comprehend that this album is 30.To put it into perspective, 30 years before this album's release, rock -n-roll hadn't been invented yet, at least in as far as mainstream America was concerned. Bing,Patti Page , Perry Como , Sinatra and their ilk celebrated 30 yr old songs when "War" was released. I can still remember hearing the first notes of "New Year's Day" coming out of the television in my livingroom,because in those days MTV still played music, and was the first thing I did when I got home from school.
