Wow - it's been a long time coming. 6 months in fact since U2 graced your ears. We recorded this in November but only got round to recording the end musical clue yesterday as we'd been arguing about whether it's a normal episode or turnaround...
Anyway, this episode dives into the three chords wonders themselves - Status Quo. One of the biggest and best bands of the 70s. At least until they went south in the latter end of the decade and never really recovered credibility.
Joel gets a revenge and it's.... alright!

Generation Mix Episode 45 - U2
We're back! It's been a long old wait - but for the best of reasons. Joel has been taking his GCSEs. That's all over now and what better way to celebrate than to listen to a somewhat polarising band - U2.
Together as a band for over 45 years with no line changes or departures ever - U2 can lay claim to the Pride of being the most stable band in rock history.
This is a trawl through their career up to the controversial Songs Of Innocence and that particular i-Tunes shaped can of worms does get talked about but do we get stuck in a moment we can't get out of?
Joel has his revenge and there is a shock involved!

Generation Mix Episode 44 - Genesis and Solo
In this episode Joel and Neil listen to the music of Genesis and solo tracks from Phil Collins, Mike and the Mechanics and Peter Gabriel.
Genesis aren't exactly a favourite of Neil - the greatest hits are OK and maybe an album or two. Peter Gabriel, however...
Joel gets his usual revenge and it's.... fine!
