That girlish sound you hear emanating from California’s Inland Empire area is that of Mr. Floyd R. Turbo, who figures to be positively giddy U2 has 25-30 new songs ready to be released.
We have Songs of Ascent, which is the meditative work that was meant to complement No Line on the Horizon. We’ve got a rock album. We also have a club-sounding album. And then we have the Spider-Man [musical] stuff.Across those four, there are 25-30 songs. Now we have to decide how we go about releasing them? Do we release them in their groups? Chris Martin [of Coldplay] called me and said, “I hear you’ve got all these albums going. I have a great idea. Why not just pick the best songs from all of them and put them out now?” And I’m like, “Hmm . . . “
Floyd always did have a certain, Ned Beaty quality.
to be fair I do have a pretty mouth
I totally get the OCD desire to track down *everything* my favorite bands ever did. I’ve got at least three full albums worth of studio outtakes and unreleased tracks from one of my favorite bands, and nearly as much for a couple others. So I totally get being excited by something like this.
I never really *got* U2, though.
What’s the greatest Polka CD of all time?

And your problem with this is…?
It’s not the early 90s?
@ Scott: Dunno, but I’ve always been fond of Weird Al’s polka medleys.
