More from U2-Y
A short bonus episode, taken from an outtake from our very first conversation about Steve's early days as a young man in Ireland, obsessed with rock and roll and design.
The first of two parts that bring the U2-Y podcast to a conclusion.
U2's 9th full length release and possibly their most provocative to date, sees the boundaries pushed even further than before. What U2 could look like and what they could sound like was challenged yet again, and possibly for the last time.
Bono has said that 'Achtung Baby' is the sound of four men chopping down the Joshua Tree. For graphic designer and art director Steve Averill, he would also take part in this ritualistic creative evolution to make way for the kaleidoscopic explosion that was the sleeve for U2's 7th LP.
