U2 - 11 O'Clock Tick Tock 7'' 1980

It's not a mystery about talkin' U2, the Dubliners began in their hometown 1976 and their music rooting in the political turmoil that was all around them. The four have been in the music business for over forty years but if you look back at their early years, you notice that their early singles were absolute nuggets and are hardly comparable to today's modern commercial stuff which is not bad but I like the older days, 11 O'Clock Tick Tock is one example of their early phase and both tracks are none album cuts and shows the bands New Wave face. The b-side is also great and not published anywhere else. Released via Island Records and I would like to show you with this little 7Inch another, a non-commercial side of the band; the beginning days which were just as difficult and exhausting, as with a young punk combo, that had to search as well, to bring their music to the people at all. - Nowadays the slab still very popular and not cheap... so let's enjoy the old irish stuff and I'm now devoted to the SGE's soccer match vs. Mainz.
