Ed is releasing his first solo album soon. Two tracks are available and really good.

I happened to find this video where he's listing Edge as one of the "big 3" guitarists of the 80's (at 9')

A dangerous idea that almost makes sense...

I’m still looking at the video... at one point EOB says that Radiohead do not use backing tracks (except for 1 song) and mentions a show he’s seen at the O2 where there was a lot of use of backing track and the result wasn’t good. I wonder if that’s U2. He says backing tracks are boring.
