Bono reveals talk of re-recording Pop

Bono has told the Chicago Tribune that U2 are thinking of releasing a new version of Pop.

“There’s talk about the band going back in and fixing it,” he reveals, “because the bones of a great album are there. It didn't communicate the way it was intended to. It became a niche record. That's not what it was intended to be. If we'd just had another month, we could have finished it."

According to Bono, the villain of the piece was Paul McGuinness.

“We let the manager book the tour – known in this camp as the worst decision U2 ever made – and we had to wrap up the album sooner than we wanted."
