I remember that band U2. They did TRY and make people like their offerings for free. But thankfully, there was a way around it for Apple users.

They also gave away an album in the 80s with certain walkmans

Complete bastards. Fancy making music people like and buy in reasonable quantities to make a living out of. Bastards.

How very dare they!!

And as for that Bono! Using his fame to raise awareness of human rights and other worthwhile causes! Outrageous!

Anagram of Bono = O Nob

Anagram of Poldark = Old Krap

I rest my (bass) case..

Def Leppard's synthetic, sterile mush that is Hysteria.

True, but luckily his money was safe in a tax haven, so he can raise awareness so that poorer people can pay for schools and hospitals

I saw the article and thought it was great. I was really pleased to see it. I'm sure a lot of people start out on bass because of players like Rick Savage.

An early influence for me was Dee Dee Ramone but now I am older I would rather listen to James Jamerson or Carol Kaye. I still smile and feel good when I see a mention of Dee Dee though.

Hysteria was a great album apart from all the songs and the band

That's a bit like complaining that in a charity gig the band gets paid and they have the audacity to mention the charity and encouraging people to donate...

When I have a net worth of $700 million I will be sure to do them all for free
