UNDER THE INFLUENCE - BOB GELDOF
A collection of musical influences and inspirations
Out May 3rd 2004

"Like everyone doing this series of compilations I didn't know where to start. You can do 20 of these things and still not run out of stuff that made your very existence explicable and bearable. I could have done the blues one ­ my first love. Could have done the cool, cred, underground, obscure one, the forgotten genius one etc. I went for the pop one. The in-car comp that I'd play on some 80 minute journey and each track would make me happier in direct proportion to every inch travelled. Like music has done in my life. So this is the Catholic Compilation. A reminder of why all these musicians are so great. A little memory jolt of pure joy that all meant something vast to me." Bob Geldof
