Album Of The Day: All That You Can't Leave Behind by U2

Album Art of U2's All That You Can't Leave Behind album - In a large, open hallway with a tall, curved roof, the four men of U2 stand in the center of the floor with a few bags. It looks like Bono is looking down at a book in his hand, and Larry is looking at Bono. The Edge is standing to the right looking off to left of fhe frame, and Adam is leaning to the left of Bono looking at the camera.

If The Joshua Tree made U2 a popular band in the late '80s, this album pushed them through the stratosphere 13 years later. After going through a dance rock phase in the '90s, All That You Can't Leave Behind went back to the more guitar-oriented rock band sound, though keeping a bit of the electronic. Bono's vocals get into the falsetto on songs such as "Beautiful Day" and "Elevation" among others. Although the first four tracks are the memorable singles, the rest of the album is great music too, from a love song to "New York" to a call for "Peace on Earth".
