Description

In Part 2 of our look at the All That You Can't Leave Behind period, we discuss the second half of this front loaded record, and the Elevation Tour where U2 dispenses with all the artifices, arches and lemons, and go back to arenas. And front and center is Bono...THAT Bono with his heart back on his sleeve. After an already heavily emotional first two legs of the tour, 9/11 happens, and while most other bands cancel their tours, U2 rises to the occasion as the band for big moments. The words on ATYCLB prove prescient and provide comfort and a pathway forward. The success of the record and the wildly successful tour places U2 back on top of the world culminating in their iconic performance at the Super Bowl.

Into the Into the Heart of U2 Podcast is the most comprehensive dive into the history of U2 as told by folks who were there while it happened. Co-hosts, author and musician Bill See, and Melody Muraca, the founder of one of the first U2 Fanzines in the U.S., go through U2's career album by album and tour by tour, and the perception of U2 in cultural consciousness. They still care about the band, but they're concerned about their legacy. So, they're going to try and get to the bottom of whether U2 is one of the greats of all time or are the haters right after all.
