I find The Joshua Tree technically excellent but basically a great big bore, partly because of Bono's bombastic over-singing but mainly because of the utter humourlessness self-importance of the music. I started liking U2 when they acquired a sense of humour, without losing the passion and intensity, i.e., Achtung Baby. But hey, that's me.
The one Hip CD on a desert island: DFN, with IBE a close second. But Coke Machine Glow would trump either.
