All That You Can't Leave Behind (Pt 1)

We kick off Season 2 with U2's 10th studio album, All That You Can't Leave Behind, a record that begins U2 Phase III after their Mach II reinvention with Achtung Baby. It's also, arguably, the genesis of the sound of all their output going forward. It's a record Rolling Stone called the band's third masterpiece and that went on to become a huge critical and commercial success reaching number 1 in 32 countries. And on the ensuing Elevation Tour, the band returns to arenas, dispensing with all the artifices and there, front and center, was Bono - that Bono - with his heart on his sleeve without any masks or smirking irony. Something that made a lot of old fans very excited and go, "Oh I remember that U2."
