Bootlegged material varies immensely in quality, and through this guide, we hope to help each other avoid getting ripped off. We do NOT sell these CDs. We do NOT distribute them, or help anyone to buy them. We are not encouraging anyone to buy them, but rather, if you ARE going to buy them, this guide should help you decide which bootlegs are good and which should be avoided. For further information, please read "The Legality of Bootlegs" (Section 2). Finally, we do NOT want this guide being used by or in conjunction with any commercial enterprise, whether for profit or otherwise. On-line and mail- order companies are NOT authorized to use ANY information in this COPYRIGHTED guide. We want our position on these matters clear. -Mike Gentile and Bob Reck ************************************************************************** CONTENTS ======== 1.

Intro: September 1998 Alphabetical Edition In 1992, Mark Taylor started the original 'Out Of Control' bootleg list with the help of a few people on Wire, the U2 mailing list. He gathered information on U2 bootlegs and collated it to provide a "guide" for bootleg buyers. He later went on to publish the guide in March of 1993 under the same name, 'Out Of Control'. When J. Gareth Williams took over the maintenance of 'Out Of Control', he retained the name. Let's face it- it's was a perfect title. In early 1995, Mark Taylor wrote to J. Gareth Williams and said he was thinking of writing a "second edition" of his book, and to avoid confusion, asked J. Gareth if he would mind changing the name of this guide, so he happily obliged. J. Gareth and I had a few ideas, but 'FOR LOVE OR MONEY?' turned out to be our favorite. When I took over the guide in the spring of 1995, I took it upon myself to re-arrange FOR LOVE OR MONEY? into a more (chrono)logical guide to U2 bootleg CDs. This version DOES NOT reflect those changes, but I decided to release BOTH versions of the September 1998 edition: The Chronological Version and the Alphabetical Version (this one). This will ensure that everyone is happy (for the most part). Let me assure you, BOTH versions contain the same exact content, and none of the reviews have changed at all (except for a few corrections, etc.). The main reason for changing the format was to organize it more logically, and to ensure that all printings of a particular recording are cross-referenced to eachother. This edition of 'FOR LOVE OR MONEY? A Guide To U2 Bootleg CDs' marks the third time that I have collaborated with German author Sascha Kremer. Sascha's book, 'The Complete Illustrated Guide Through The World Of U2 Bootlegs' is a terrific guide to U2 bootlegs on vinyl and CD. First published in 1994, (in a limited run of 50 copies) it is now available in a fully- revised third edition, which was published privately in April 1996. All of the information in it was compiled with the help of U2 fans and collectors from all over Europe (especially Germany, Austria and Holland) and earlier editions of 'FOR LOVE OR MONEY? A Guide To U2 Bootleg CDs' (and 'Out Of Control'). This book got fantastic reviews in the German music press as well as from U2 collectors and U2 fanzine publishers from all over the world. This third edition is large in size and has 168 pages. Contained in his third edition is information about 335 U2 bootleg CDs, with 11 cover variations and 53 repressings (total 399 CDs) and 195 vinyl albums with 185 cover variations and 3 reprintings (total 388 LPs), 7 various artists vinyl albums and 1 cover variation (total 8 LPs) and 20 various artists CDs with 1 repressing (total 21 CDs). This is approximately 811 bootlegs (cover variation means that there is one bootleg available with a different cover, picture CDs or LPs, booklets, or labels). About 700 black and white illustrations show bootleg covers, picture CDs and picture LPs. The illustrations in this book were taken from photos, photocopies or scans from the covers and/or picture LPs and CDs so the quality varies form excellent to poor. The whole book is printed on black and white high quality paper, and was privately financed and published. The information found in this book is very similar to that found in 'FOR LOVE OR MONEY? A Guide To U2 Bootleg CDs' (full track listings, recording sources (comparable to 'U2 Live - A Concert Documentary' by Pimm Jal de la Parra), information about sound quality and cover style, comments about guest musicians and particularities like booklets and posters, etc.). The book also contains a complete appendix, listing all U2 bootlegs and bootleg recording sources as well as a compilation of all known U2 concerts since 1978 (up through April, 1996). The price of the book in Germany is 28,90 DM (12 UK Pounds / 18 US dollars), including postage and packaging. The price in the rest of Europe is 30,00 DM (13 UK Pounds / 20 US dollars), including postage and packaging. The price in the rest of the world is 50,00 DM (20 UK Pounds / 32 US dollars), including postage and packaging. Payment can be made with cash by registered mail (you don't have to send the amount in German Marks, you can send UK Pounds or US Dollars as well), with an International or Postal Money Order (IMO/PMO), or with a Eurocheque in German DM (!). Wholesale prices and promotional copies are available by request. 'FOR LOVE OR MONEY? A Guide To U2 Bootleg CDs' and 'The Complete Illustrated Guide Through The World Of U2 Bootlegs' are going to work very closely together in the future to give every U2 fan and collector the ability to get the best information about every U2 bootleg. Rest assured, ALL of CDs found in the third edition of 'The Complete Illustrated Guide Through The World Of U2 Bootlegs' are reviewed in this (September 1998) edition of 'FOR LOVE OR MONEY? A Guide To U2 Bootleg CDs'. For more information about 'The Complete Illustrated Guide Through The World Of U2 Bootlegs', contact Sascha Kremer directly (saschak1@geocities.com) or check out his homepage (http://privat.schlund.de/popheart/). I think the time is right for me to mention a few things about CD-Rs. For those of you who do not know a whole lot about CD-Rs, CD-R stands for "Compact Disc Recordable". CD-Rs are "recordable" only once and, for the most part, they work just like standard music CDs and computer CD-ROMs. Regular CDs (and CD-ROMs) are pressed from a mold. CD-Rs are burned with a laser and are made with either a (home) CD-R burner or a (professional) CD-R replicator. CD-Rs look different than normal CDs (green, gold, or blue instead of silver). CD-Rs are less tolerant of extreme temperatures and sunlight, and don't last as long as regular CDs (but they still have a very long life). The CD-R market has really exploded recently, due (mostly) to the drop in prices of CD-R hardware and blank CD-Rs. A blank CD-R used to cost about $35 EACH when the format was first introduced a few years back. Nowadays, blank CD-Rs can be picked up at your local computer retailer for as little as $1 apiece (when purchased in multipacks)! Now I know what most of you are probably thinking, that CD-Rs are overpriced "one shot deals", sloppily thrown together mainly by individuals out to make a fast buck by pressing only a few discs at a time. This is not always the case, according to a recent article by Bill Glahn, Managing Editor of 'Live! Music Review' magazine (May 1997 issue). While it is true that sometimes CD-Rs are pressed in quantities of less than five discs at a time, there have been a lot of CD-R titles pressed lately in quantities of 30, 50, 100, and even 1,000. Some even come with professionally printed covers and color graphics. Contrary to popular belief, not all CD-Rs are manufactured by someone with a home computer and a $400 CD-R burner. For just few thousand dollars, anyone can now buy a professional CD-R replicator which can press over 120 CD-Rs virtually overnight! These relatively inexpensive replicators can burn as many as 4 CD-Rs at a time, each in one-quarter the amount of time it takes to actually PLAY an entire CD! There is no denying that CD-Rs are here to stay. Since the recent crackdown in the world of the more "traditional" CD bootlegs, and since costs for blank media and hardware have dropped significantly, sales of CD-Rs have skyrocketed over the past year, and there is no indication that the market for CD-Rs is slumping at all. For this reason, I am still including many CD-R reviews in FLOM. Keep in mind that bootleg CD-Rs will probably be a lot harder to find (than "normal" bootleg CDs) but I feel it is appropriate to include reviews for most (but not all) of them at this time. I think that CD-Rs will replace the "traditional" CD bootleg (and cassettes, for that matter) as the "format of choice" in the months and years to come. I expect CD-R bootleg prices to plummet as well. Quality is always a concern, but that I will leave that up to the reader to decide (In other words, make SURE you know EXACTLY what you are buying and how much you are spending when buying CD-Rs!). Some of the content found on bootleg CD-Rs is simply not available anywhere else. It is for this reason that I will continue to review certain (but not all) U2 bootleg CD-Rs. One IMPORTANT point that has to be addressed is the fact that multi-generation CD-R copies of boots will sound progressively worse than an original boot CD. A 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th... generation CD-R of ROCK'S HOTTEST TICKET (for instance) won't sound as sharp, detailed, strong, and transparent as the original. When comparing original bootlegs to multi-generation CD-R copies through headphones, sometimes the CD-R copies will sound less transparent, less detailed, less sharp, less everything. The treble loss could even wind up being 10-15% of it's original sharpness even by the time it has reached a second-generation CD-R copy. Better digital audio extraction software will yield better results. For more information about CD-Rs, please check out the (EXCELLENT!) CD-R FAQ at: http://www.fadden.com/cdrfaq/ The CD-R generation issue will become more of an issue in the months and years to come as CD-R copies yield more and more generational loss. Personally, I'd say anything past a first generation would compromise some of the parameters, thus adversely affecting the integrity and accuracy of the ratings. Thanks to Roberto Angelucci (cw688@freenet.toronto.on.ca) for pointing all of this out to me. This is why 'FOR LOVE OR MONEY? A Guide To U2 Bootleg CDs' is making a long-overdue and much-needed improvement to the "Sound Quality" field in the 'Format For Bootleg Reviews' (Section 6). This much-needed improvement came as a direct result of discussions with Roberto Angelucci who helped me determine the best course of action. These new sound quality "ratings" fields will (for the most part) pertain only to live recordings. The expanded ratings fields are as follows: OVERALL SOUND, CRISPNESS, ALIVE, AMBIENCE, PERFORMANCE, and ARTIFICIAL. These expanded fields can all be found in Section 6 ('Format For Bootleg Reviews'). The new ratings will be carefully integrated in future editions of 'FOR LOVE OR MONEY? A Guide To U2 Bootleg CDs.' I will need ABSOLUTELY EVERYONE's help to gather all of this information for future editions of FLOM. Please keep in mind that the addition of these fields will greatly improve database versions of 'FOR LOVE OR MONEY? A Guide To U2 Bootleg CDs' which are currently being planned.

A lot of information has been added and updated since the December 1997 edition 'FOR LOVE OR MONEY? A Guide To U2 Bootleg CDs'. About 75 corrections (edits, changes, revisions, etc.) have been made to the reviews since the last edition of this guide (over half of them were simply e-mail address changes). Also, over 90 NEW reviews have also been added. I'd just like to point out the two newest sections of this guide, 'Changed Reviews This Edition' (Section 4), and 'NEW Reviews This Edition' (Section 5). Both sections simply list all of the changed and new reviews, respectively, since the December 1997 edition. Just a reminder: As with the December 1997 edition of this guide, all of the 'Source:' info in every review now matches, as precisely as possible, the source info in the book, 'U2 Live: A Concert Documentary' by Pimm Jal de la Parra (which is excellent, I might add). This is to ensure that concert recordings from the same source contain the same exact 'Source:" info, so as to avoid any confusion whatsoever. Every review now contains the full date, written out, with month, day, and year (so as to avoid confusion with some Europeans, who sometimes write the date numerically in the form DD/MM/YY). Also, the location is now listed with country, state (or province), city, etc. shown as correctly as possible. Complete venue information is also given, wherever possible, as well. Also, every single review in this guide now contains complete (Title, Manufacturer, Catalog Number, Matrix Number, Barcode Number, Timings, Contributor, Track Listing, Source, Sound Quality, Comments, and Repressing) information wherever possible. For more information on the new format and what it all means, please see Section 6, 'Format Of Bootleg Reviews'. A new edition of this guide will be released in a few months which will update all of the reviews in this guide so that they conform to the new 'Format For Bootleg Reviews' (Section 6). For the timebeing, only the NEW reviews conform to the new format. Also, in the next edition of this guide, ALL E-MAIL ADDRESSES will be omitted from the individual reviews. This change is necessary because people are changing their addresses seemingly every day and it is absolutely impossible for me to keep track anymore. No need to worry, though, the name of the reviewer will still remain, and their newest e-mail address can always be found in the "Thank You All Very Much..." section, which is found at the end of this guide. Before I forget, I still need help gathering and expanding the 'Comments:' section for any bootleg review which is seemingly missing such pertinent info. This would be a great help to me and to U2 fans everywhere. So if you have any of the bootlegs that you feel needs expanded 'Comments:' coverage in this guide, help us all out and send me your 'Comments:' on it. Your comments will be added to the review, and you will be given credit, wherever necessary. These "expanded" 'Comments:' sections will then be added to the review of the bootleg(s) in question and will appear in future editions of this guide. If you have always wanted to help me out but never really knew how, here is your big chance! Please keep the info coming my way; it is always very much appreciated. I am still including some "gray area" CDs in this guide. By "gray area", I mean CDs which are not really "bootlegs", but rather things such as "official" radio shows and interviews, interview CDs, etc. (Hell, I even have a U2 karaoke CD!). For now at least, only the karaoke CD (SING THE HITS OF U2) and some interview CDs are/will be included. I still need help getting some reviews for U2 interview CDs. If you have absolutely any U2 interview CDs that are not yet covered here, PLEASE help me out and send in a review of it, using the format for bootleg CD reviews (Section 6) as best you can. This will be a bit tricky, but please do your best to describe the interview, the person conducting the interview, some of the questions asked and, of course, what sorts of things our boys talked about during the interview. Also, try your best to nail down the source of the interview, even if you can only guess from which "era" the interview came from. The inclusion of some of these "gray area" CDs, while not really bootlegs, will be a great addition to future editions of the guide. Feel free to submit reviews for anything you would like to be considered for inclusion in the guide, and I will do my best to accommodate everyone and everything. The only thing that I ask is that you please use the format for bootleg reviews (Section 6). If you have any comments, good or bad, or suggestions as to what to include, please drop me a line. Over time, all of the "gray area" CDs will be incorporated into future editions of this guide in some way, shape or form. 'For Love Or Money' is available on the web! The URL for this guide is: (http://www.erols.com/breck/flom) but we will soon be migrating over to: (http://www.u2-flom.com). Bob Reck has asked me to plead with any of you who might have bootleg CDs for which we still need images of. If you have graphics to submit, please be sure to scan both the front and back of each bootleg CD, save them as color ".jpg" files, and attach the pictures to an e-mail message. Be sure to use a separate message for each bootleg title. In the body of each message, please include the header information for every bootleg you are submitting graphics for. This info would include the title, manufacturer, catalog, matrix, and barcode info. Scans should be submitted Bob Reck. His address appears at the top of this guide. Thanks again to Bob for maintaining the on-line version of FLOM! From now on, the most current TEXT versions of this guide can always be found at the Wire (U2 mailing list) www site: http://www.gartholamew.com/MailingLists/u2-list/flom/text/ The filenames will be as follows: boot-rev.txt: The latest Alphabetical version, ~1174K+, text file bootrev2.txt: The latest Chronological version, ~1402K+, text file boot-rev.zip: The latest Alphabetical version, ~285K+, zipped file bootrev2.zip: The latest Chronological version, ~341K+, zipped file Or each file directly: http://www.gartholamew.com/MailingLists/u2-list/flom/text/boot-rev.zip http://www.gartholamew.com/MailingLists/u2-list/flom/text/bootrev2.zip http://www.gartholamew.com/MailingLists/u2-list/flom/text/boot-rev.txt http://www.gartholamew.com/MailingLists/u2-list/flom/text/bootrev2.txt "What's next on the horizon for FLOM?" you might ask. Well, thanks to Peter Hanning (hanning@stacken.kth.se) I finally have an MS Access 97- FLOM database. I am still testing it out before propagating it with all of the data from FLOM, but good things are sure to come of it. (It's AWESOME!) Once this database is finished, the resulting "product" will someday wind up on the web via a "searchable on-line database" of sorts. If this works, it will resemble Henry Wagner's (EXCELLENT!) searchable on-line U2 database of official releases (http://www.henrywagner.org). This is all in the planning stages at the moment, and any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also, I am toying with the idea of creating an Adobe Acrobat- based version of FLOM, complete with color graphics. The format for bootleg reviews (see section 6) has been expanded in this edition of FLOM to provide additional information. So far, I have added a section called 'Format:', a section called 'Complete Show:', and a section called 'Released:'. All of these new fields are very short. The 'Format:' section is a must due to the recent explosion in the digital recording market (and specifically the CD-R market, see above). This field will have space for "CD" (compact disc), "CD-R" (compact disc recordable), and the relatively new formats, "CD-RW" (compact disc re-writable), "DVD" (digital versatile disc), and finally "DVD-R" (digital versatile disc recordable). This addition will no doubt be necessary at some point as digital recordings and FLOM move into the 21st century. I am trying to keep ahead of the game by implementing this now. Another field which has been added is 'Complete Show:'. This will only pertain to live concert recordings. If the complete show can be found on the disc(s), the then a "Yes" will appear in the field. If not, a "No" will appear in the field. Otherwise, a "NA" will appear in the field. This enhancement will help those who are not sure if you are getting an entire concert or a shortened version of a particular show. The last field I have added is 'Released:'. This field simply lists the year the bootleg was produced (if known). As I said earlier, a new edition of this guide will be released in a few months which will update all of the reviews in this guide so that they conform to the new 'Format For Bootleg Reviews' (Section 6). For the timebeing, only the NEW reviews conform to the new format. Also, in the next edition of this guide, ALL E-MAIL ADDRESSES will be omitted from the individual reviews. This change is necessary because people are changing their addresses seemingly every day and it is absolutely impossible for me to keep track any more. No need to worry, though, the name of the reviewer will still remain, and their newest e-mail address can always be found in the "Thank You All Very Much..." section, which is found at the end of this guide. About 611 bootleg U2 CDs and CD-Rs are now reviewed in this edition. Thanks, as always, to _everyone_ who sent in reviews, corrections and information (see Section 9). Please keep it coming! Please send all submissions to me (my address is up there at the top). Special thanks to: Rebecca Gilbert and Bob Reck. Without these two people, I would have given up a long time ago. - Mike Gentile ************************************************************************** 2. The Legality of Bootlegs - PLEASE READ! First of all, I should point out that by "bootleg", we mean a recording of a "performance" by the band, either live or in the studio that is not otherwise available to the general public. This is NOT the same as home-taping or "piracy", where people dub recordings and re-sell them. Piracy is illegal and totally unjustified. It should be made clear that like piracy, bootlegs are ALSO illegal, and that the band receives no royalties from the sale of these recordings. Stores have been shut down and fined hundreds of thousands of dollars for selling these CDs. I understand (please correct me if I'm mistaken) that U2 have no objections to fans recording and trading concerts; what they DO object to is the fact that the record companies that manufacture bootlegs and the stores that sell them, are probably making a substantial profit, while the band who perform on them don't see a dime. I am aware that by purchasing bootlegs, one keeps the industry thriving. I am sure the band have strong objections to fans doing this. On the other hand, I personally own all their albums, most of their singles, the videos, 7 or 8 posters, and several T-shirts and other paraphernalia. I've been to their concerts, and introduced friends to their music, who later also bought their albums. In short, I have generated about as much legitimate business for the band as is possible as a fan. As I already mentioned, piracy is both illegal and unjustified. Bootlegging is also illegal, but I feel that it is not an "immoral" or "unjust" business. One can argue that since in most cases the band has no commercial interest in any of these recordings, they are not really losing money. There are valid points to be made both for and against this, but in general, I feel that it is a valid argument. There are specific instances, however, where this is NOT the case, such as bootlegs which contain material that is commercially available. Purchasing this type of bootleg, (unless you already own all of the commercially available material) in my humble opinion, is blatantly ripping off the band, and I would strongly discourage it. I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY HORRIBLE FATE THAT MAY BEFALL YOU BY ACTING ON THE INFORMATION IN THIS LIST. This includes (but is not limited to): A) any legal action taken against you as a result of you being involved in an illegal business, and B) any bad purchases you make based on this list. I try to make sure that what is written is factually correct, and honestly describes the CDs in question; but half of these discs I've never even HEARD, so I trust the reviews of others. -Mike Gentile ************************************************************************** 3.

ROY INC. ************************************************************************** 6. Format Of Bootleg Reviews CD TITLES: In most cases, this is obvious. In those instances where it is not, I have chosen what I felt is the most obvious possibility. Titles appear in all capital letters, and are listed in alphabetical order. (Example: I will be using my own copy of the "well-known" bootleg ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) as an example.) MANUFACTURER: Some bootleg labels have been around for years; others exist for a single CD. Sometimes more than one manufacturer uses the same label name. Some specialize in quality and original material; others in reprints. The entry "(no manufacturer listed)", is used when no label is identified. (Example: The MANUFACTURER for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA is KTS (Kiss The Stone) Records.) CATALOG NUMBERS: These are (usually very simple) numbers identifying the particular bootleg CD. It is usually printed on the spine of a disc, painted on the disc itself, or found somewhere in the booklet or back cover of the CD. (Example: The CATALOG NUMBER for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) is: KTS197/98. This can be found on the spine of the CD, and is painted on the CDs themselves.) MATRIX NUMBERS: These are the numbers that are BURNED INTO THE CD ITSELF. These MATRIX NUMBERS are the hardest of all to locate. In order to locate the MATRIX NUMBER for any CD, simply flip the CD itself over (so that the shiny part is face up and you can see yourself if you look at it), hold it under a light, and read the number that you see appearing near the center of the CD. It should be on the inner-most ring close to the clear part, near the center hole. As I said, it is burned into the CD itself. Also, some bootlegs have MATRIX NUMBERS that have been manually "scratched out", like with a pin or needle of some sort. (Example: The MATRIX NUMBERS for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) are as follows: Disc 1 reads: PILZ CD KTS 197 [ K 33277 C ] , and for Disc 2 it reads: PILZ CD KTS 198 [ K 33272 A ] .) Many bootlegs have been reprinted, sometimes in altered form. The MATRIX NUMBERS should make it clear which pressing I'm referring to. BARCODE NUMBER (UPC symbol): These are simple to locate. Either a bootleg CD has one or it doesn't. In order to find out, the most likely place to look is the back CD cover. It is the code, much like any item in a food supermarket or a legitimate CD, which is read by a laser scanner attached to the cash register or whatever. It is in a small box, with vertical lines and has numbers printed underneath. These numbers are the BARCODE. This is the info I need. (Example: The BARCODE for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) reads: 8 013780 011977. It is printed on the back CD cover, in a little yellow box with black lines.) COMPLETE SHOW: This field only pertains to live concert recordings. If the complete show can be found on the disc(s), the then a "Yes" will appear in the field. If not, a "No" will appear in the field. Otherwise, a "NA" will appear in the field (if this is not a live concert recording). If you are not sure, just place an "Unknown" in this field. An excellent reference to help determine this is the book 'U2 Live: A Concert Documentary', by Pimm Jal de la Parra. (Example: Since _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) contains the COMPLETE SHOW, a "Yes" appears here. FORMAT: If the disc is a "regular" (silver) compact disc, a "CD" will appear here. If the disc is a (gold/blue/green) compact disc recordable, a "CD-R" will appear here. In the future, three relatively new formats, "CD-RW" (compact disc re-writable), "DVD" (digital versatile disc), and finally "DVD-R" (digital versatile disc recordable) might also appear in this field. For now, only "CD" and "CD-R" will appear here. Also, place the number of discs before the "CD" or "CD-R" (Example: The FORMAT for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) is: 2CD, since there are 2 compact discs, and it is a regular CD bootleg.) RELEASED: This is simply the year that the bootleg was released (if known). (Example: The year that _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) was RELEASED is 1993. TIMINGS: The total running time for each disc appears in parenthesis. (Example: The TIMINGS for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) are: (65:57) for Disc 1 and (54:04) for Disc 2.) CONTRIBUTOR(s): Wherever possible, I've tried to include the name of the contributor who sent in the review. Some of the reviews without name are those that were in Mark Taylor's original list, but most are reviewed by me. (Example: The CONTRIBUTOR(s) for the review of _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) are: Frederic Elsner (elsner@univ-valenciennes.fr), J (pop4ever@yahoo.com), and Jason Fusco (L!MR).) TRACK LISTINGS: Song titles are listed in the order in which they are heard on the CD. If there is a discrepancy between what is heard and what is listed on the cover, it is noted under the comments section. (Example: See below for the TRACK LISTING for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records).) SOURCE: This is the DATE, LOCATION, and VENUE (in that order) for a live recording. For the bootlegs that are not of a live nature (B-sides, studio demos, interviews, remixes, etc.) the SOURCE would be as accurate a description (of the origin) as possible. All bootlegs are of a live performance unless otherwise stated. (Example: The SOURCE of _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) is: August 28, 1993. Dublin, Ireland. Royal Dublin Society Showgrounds.) SOUND QUALITY: This is in terms of bootleg quality, not commercial quality. The rating scale is as follows; excellent, very good, good, fair, and poor. A CD rated poor to fair, is difficult or unpleasant to listen to. The origin of the recording is also specified as either a soundboard (direct line feed from the mixing board), or as an audience member made recording, or as a broadcast recording (which generally encompasses FM radio and television broadcasts). (Example: The SOUND QUALITY of _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) is Excellent soundboard broadcast.) SOUND AND PERFORMANCE RATINGS (mostly pertains to live bootlegs): OVERALL SOUND (So what would you give it on a 1-to-10 scale overall?) This applies to the main live portion of the bootleg in question. If a bootleg manufacturer includes a few bad bonus tracks, that will not detract from the OVERALL SOUND rating. Bonus tracks need not be rated. This is a NUMERICAL rating, including one decimal point. This rating is based on a 1-to-10 scale with 1 being the lowest (worst) and 10 being the highest (best). Sample input values for ratings are as follows: 8.1, 5.0, 10, 7.5, 9.9, etc. (Example: The OVERALL SOUND rating for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) is a 9.9.) CRISPNESS (How "crystal clear" is the sound?) This applies to the main live portion of the bootleg in question. If a bootleg manufacturer includes a few bad bonus tracks, that will not detract from the CRISPNESS rating. Bonus tracks need not be rated. This is a NUMERICAL rating, including one decimal point. This rating is based on a 1-to-10 scale with 1 being the lowest (worst) and 10 being the highest (best). Sample input values for ratings are as follows: 8.1, 5.0, 10, 7.5, 9.9, etc. (Example: The CRISPNESS rating for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) is a 7.0. JOSHUA TREE ON FIRE would receive a 10.0 for (super crisp) and NEW HORIZON would receive a 3.5 (super dull). ALIVE (Does the bootleg capture the feeling of actually being there?) This applies to the main live portion of the bootleg in question. If a bootleg manufacturer includes a few bad bonus tracks, that will not detract from the ALIVE rating. Bonus tracks need not be rated. This is a NUMERICAL rating, including one decimal point. Excellent audience bootlegs have an edge here. Flat-sounding broadcasts (such as Sarajevo) would receive low rating. This rating is based on a 1-to-10 scale with 1 being the lowest (worst) and 10 being the highest (best). Sample input values for ratings are as follows: 8.1, 5.0, 10, 7.5, 9.9, etc. (Example: The ALIVE rating for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) is an 9.0.) AMBIENCE (What kind of atmosphere or mood was present during the show?) This applies to the main live portion of the bootleg in question. If a bootleg manufacturer includes a few bad bonus tracks, that will not detract from the AMBIANCE rating. Bonus tracks need not be rated. This is a NUMERICAL rating, including one decimal point. This rating is based on a 1-to-10 scale with 1 being the lowest (worst) and 10 being the highest (best). Sample input values for ratings are as follows: 8.1, 5.0, 10, 7.5, 9.9, etc. (Example: The AMBIANCE rating for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) is a 9.5.) PERFORMANCE (How good did the band perform that night?) This applies to the main live portion of the bootleg in question. If a bootleg manufacturer includes a few bad bonus tracks, that will not detract from the AMBIANCE rating. Bonus tracks need not be rated. This is a NUMERICAL rating, including one decimal point. This rating is based on a 1-to-10 scale with 1 being the lowest (worst) and 10 being the highest (best). Sample input values for ratings are as follows: 8.1, 5.0, 10, 7.5, 9.9, etc. (Example: The PERFORMANCE rating for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) is a 10.0.) ARTIFICIAL (How "fake" is the sound quality?) This is a QULAITATIVE rating. If there is some digital manipulation of the sound, or something "just doesn't seem quite right," it would show up here. The only ratings here are "Yes," "Somewhat," or "No." (Example: The ARTIFICIAL rating for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records) is "No.") COMMENTS: This is anything of note that hasn't all ready been covered by one of the above categories, as well as anything especially good or bad about the CD pressing or U2's performance. Special guest appearances are also listed here. (Example: See below for the COMMENTS for _my_ copy of ZOO EUROPA (from KTS Records).) REPRESSING(S): DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THE REPRESSING(S) INFO. I will determine which bootlegs are repressed and supply this info in this section, if it is deemed necessary. All of the individual reviews in this guide are assumed to be the original pressings on each particular label (if known) and after each original pressing will appear the sentence: "This is the original pressing on this label." There are a few bootlegs in this guide which have unknown manufacturers, such as MELON REMIXES FOR PROPAGANDA. Since there is no way to determine which is the original pressing and which are the repressings for some of these bootlegs, they will appear multiple times. In a few cases, I've made a couple of my own changes to other peoples' reviews, if I felt sure that there were errors in the information. In cases where I disagreed, or where I had anything else to say about the recording, I have sometimes added my comments in [brackets] afterward. This is NOT to undermine what other people have written; it is simply to provide some kind of standard to compare sound quality amongst boots reviewed by different people. In most cases, I have tried my best to leave the original text of the review intact.

Can't Help Falling In Love Source : August 28,1993. Dublin, Ireland. Royal Dublin Society Showgrounds. Sound Quality : Excellent broadcast. Sound And Performance Ratings: Overall Sound: 9.9 Crispness: 7.0 Alive: 9.0 Ambience: 9.5 Performance: 10.0 Artificial: No Comments: Even better than the official live albums! Recorded live from the mixing desk, it's the best bootleg (including HAPPY NEW YEAR) I've ever heard. The sound is more than perfect ! The package has superb photos. Some errors occur on the titles, such as: "Bullet" for "Bullet The Blue Sky" and "Help Me" for The Beatles' "Help". The version of "Stay" is very very good (in my opinion) and "Numb" is played like the Industrial Mix on the 3-track video cassette single for "Numb." The August 28, 1993 Dublin bootleg has long been considered perhaps the greatest bootleg ever, and most of the reviewers say ZOO EUROPA is the best. The ending of "Tryin' To Throw Your Arms Around The World" has Bono saying simply "I Will," instead of the "Dublin City says I will," on other bootlegs such as Live Storm's ZOOROPA `93 -RDS , DUBLIN 1993. Obviously, KTS has found a way to edit it out so it misses a beat or the ending seems a little bit abrupt. The long wait while the band is walking to the b-stage after this song and to "Angel Of Harlem" is edited too, because it seems that the two songs were played right after the other (which they were not). This bootleg is also edited from "Pride (In The Name Of Love)" to "Desire". The Zoo confessions and the TV images and interference right before "Desire" is edited (as compared to the unedited ZOOROPA `93). So all you hear is the crowd after from "Pride (In The Name Of Love)" and then "Desire" kicks straight in. After "Cant Help Falling In Love," Bono says goodnight and the bootleg fades out. In other pressings such as ZOOROPA `93, you can still hear the Elvis version of the song from the PA while Bono says "Elvis is still in the building," and then it fades out. From the looks of it, this CD has obviously been remastered as seen from the edits which have actually been quite professionally done (that is why no one has pointed this out, maybe because they never noticed it or that they only have one Dublin bootleg, thus no other basis of comparison. After all, who would be crazy enough to buy different pressings of the same show?). Thus, this may be the best sounding in terms of sound quality among all the Dublin pressings. Taken from the worldwide broadcast, this is a great homecoming performance. The band have even incorporated a few 'Zooropa' songs here too. It's nicely edited and an enjoyable listen. Every bootleg should look and sound this good! Again, they go through a large chink of 'Achtung Baby' material before going into "New Year's Day." The fairly- new "Numb" is played next. The acoustic set also features another new song, "Stay (Faraway So Close!)," along with crowd-pleasers "Angel Of Harlem" and "When Love Comes To Town." "Satellite Of Love" features a pre-recorded vocal of Lou Reed. "Bad" opens the second disc and includes a snippet of Elton John's "Candle In The Wind," and ends with a snippet of another new song, "The First Time." A short version of The Beatles "Help" launches into "Ultraviolet (Light My Way)." "Desire includes Bono's Mac Phisto character's call to the United Nations, which is actually a pre-recorded bit from Adam. The show concludes with Elvis' "Can't Help Falling in Love" with nice crowd participation. A nice release. It's also out on quite a few other labels under different titles. Collectors and even casual fans should enjoy it. The cover states "Live On Tour 1993." This comes with a nice 12-page fold-out with lots of photos and a short "Professor Stone" essay. Both CDs are picture discs. This is the original pressing on this label.

Disc 2 (14, 15): July 18, 1997. Rotterdam, Holland. Feyenoord Stadium. Sound Quality: Very good audience. Comments: Disc 1, Track 12 is The Edge singling Golden Earring's "Radar Love." You can hear the instruments and the vocals very clearly. You can only hear the audience between certain songs and also during the melody of some of the "softer-sounding" songs. Keep an eye out for this one! Disc 1 is yellow with black letters. Disc 2 is black with yellow letters. The front cover features a head shot of Bono smoking a cigarette. The booklet features four pages of Adam, Bono, Larry, The Edge, and a complete tracklist. The inside back cover features the complete PopMart tour dates. Overall, a very good CD with good sound quality, yet compared to other better bootlegs, it is rather soft in terms of loudness. The cover folds out and one side has the four guys, each in photo by themselves. Adam's and Bono's have the tracklisting printed over the photo. These four photos also appear in the '98 PopMart Australian Tour Program - whether it's the same elsewhere is beyond me. Upon opening the case, the inside bottom of the CD case lists the tour dates up through September 1997. The songs themselves are their usual greatness, yet for "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For," Bono begins by singing alternative lyrics really softly. He then begins saying, "Seems like a long time, from the parody song and milky way, there's the milky way. Look. Turn off all the lights will you if you can, turn off all the lights if you can. Same band, same four fuckers. Still in love with what we do. Are you in love with what you do? Then you're blessed people. And thank you for sticking it out with us people over the years. Thank you." Pretty emotionally-charged stuff heh? On "Stand By Me," the crowd sings along. Most don't know the lyrics and half way through the song they all start laughing. Happens everywhere. Here's another quote from Bono after he swore, "Don't you hate it when pop stars swear on stage. I hate them."

The sound of this 2 CD set is distant, there is too much treble, and you can't hear bass too well, just a mass of low sound. You can hear Bono's voice and The Edge's guitar very well. I don't know if I described the sound quality very well (it isn't so bad) but I don't find it interesting at all. It is the type of sound you can't amplify too much because then it becomes very loud mass of sound that you can't listen to. On Disc 2, Tracks 14, 15, and 17, there is crowd noise everywhere (sometimes you can barely hear the band). "Stand By Me", with Bruce Springsteen, is the poorest-quality track on this double CD. Comments: These CDs are both very nice picture discs. On each disc, all four members of U2 are pictured from the 'Achtung Baby' era. Concerning the songs, all can be found on other CDs. "Even Better Than The Real Thing" contains drums with Garth from the 1992 MTV Music Video Awards. Before "Trying To Thow Your Arms Around The World", Bono exclaims, "(that it is a)...traditional Irish drinking song the Beatles had stolen from us and we're stealing it back". "Angel Of Harlem" is an acoustic version beginning with a portion of "Hello Good-bye". Before "Redemption Song", Bono says that it is the first time that they have ever played the song live, and then he pleads for the return of his stolen notebook. The Mirrorball Man's phone call is to George Bush, then President Of The United States, who is "unavailable". Deluxe color cover. This is the original pressing on this label.

Comments: This is a good CD to have if you aren't fortunate enough to own the 3CD SALOME set. Tracks 1 -11 are the "best of" (as chosen by the bootlegger) the demos made in Germany in 1991. An extra bonus are the great live versions of "Pride (In The Name Of Love)," "Sunday Bloody Sunday," and "Bad." Tracks 1-11 are studio recordings, but Tracks 12-14 are from the Self Aid radio broadcast. This is the original pressing on this label.

The six CDs were merely the three SALOME set CDs, plus either the three ULTRA RARE TRAX CDs, or some remixes from the 'Achtung Baby' b-sides, unless I'm mistaken. The set was packaged in a large metal case with the big 'Achtung Baby'-style "U2" on the cover. The price was around $200, so I couldn't justify re-purchasing music I already had. I strongly advise against purchasing this, unless it's a lot cheaper than when I saw it, or maybe it has some pictures inside or something. SALOME plus ULTRA RARE TRAX or some remixes just is not worth that much money. [Can anyone confirm Josh's info on this set?] This is the original pressing on this label. ACHTUNG BABY WORKING TAPES, THE Manufacturer: Cool Daddy Productions Catalog: CDP Matrix: *** MG3505 WT 103598 Barcode: 9 0044-06550-0 9 Complete Show: NA Format: 1-CD Released: 1997 (71:37) From: Aaron Taylor (fist@geocities.com) From: Mat Pasquale (mpasquale@pec.com) From: L!MR 1.

Hansa Ton Studios. Sound Quality: Excellent studio. Comments: This would be yet another version of the infamous stolen "'Achtung Baby' Working Tapes" from the Hansa Studios sessions. The songs are complete with an occasional pause in lyrics as Bono is giving out directions. Some songs are a bit softer than others and some of the levels could have been raised, however it is an excellent CD. It has excellent sound and I recommend it if you don't already have a similar bootleg. There is also a hidden 12th track on the disc as well. The only problem I had with the disc is that the track listing is wrong a few times on the back cover. Also, there is some weird pause on the first track near the end. This pause is too long to be a skip, so I guess it was on the original stolen tapes. The front cover of the CD is in 'Achtung Baby' style - a bunch of different pictures all thrown together. On the inside of the cover, there is an essay by Mr. N.M. Whiskers about how this particular CD first came about. This "essay" was mostly lifted from the "Pseudo-Official Salome Liner Notes." The music on this CD is an interesting look into how U2 creates their albums and what goes into them and what doesn't. I would recommend it to a U2 completist more than an average fan. The cover features a 2-panel insert and tray card. Trevor M. L. contributed to this review. There are two completely different versions of this CD. Nothing new here, but a trimming down of SALOME to a listenable length. If you haven't already plunked down for the 3CD version of this material, this single disc is a far more pleasant listening experience. Color cover. The CD itself is purple. It says "Front Row Center" across the top and "Not For Sale" on the bottom. It also has "Budweiser Entertainment" and "For Radio Play Only" printed on it. One odd thing is that it also says Disc Two. The small text at the bottom of the disc says "This broadcast is for one time use by stations cleared by the FRC on the designated date and time prearranged in writing. This disc is the property of the FRC and must be returned after use." The music itself is quite interesting. The songs on this CD represent a good cross-section of the music and ideas that the band had at this stage of the recording process. Although the majority of the songs are quite dissimilar to the ones that actually made it onto 'Achtung Baby,' there are a handful of obvious passages that can be found on the final album. Track 1 is the basis for "Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses." It has a similar bass line and the chorus is the same "turn around" part that is found on the final song. Track 2 contains the main guitar passage from "Until The End Of the World." Track 3 is taken from the song "She's Gonna Blow Your House Down," found on the 'Rattle And Hum' video outtakes. This version is plugged and way more upbeat. It also shares some of the lyrics which Bono sings in the same broken style. Track 4 is a slow song. There are no direct similarities to any song on 'Achtung Baby.' Track 5 also shares the main guitar passage from "Until The End Of The World" but it is very different from Track 2. Track 6 is almost the exact same music as Track 3, but with different lyrics. Track 7 is a slower song that contains some horns, piano, and harmonica. It has no direct similarities to any song on 'Achtung Baby.' Track 8 very closely resembles the finished song released on the album. It has the same drum track and lyric melody as the finished "Acrobat," only with different lyrics. Track 9 is a slower song with a very strong vocal presence by Bono. There are no similarities to any song on the final album. Track 10 is an instrumental. The guitar passages very closely resemble those in the final song. On Track 11, the music is extremely close to that of "Lady With the Spinning Head." In this song, you'll also find the guitar solo from "The Fly" and the intro lyrics to "Ultraviolet." Track 12 is the longest song on the CD. It is mostly instrumental, with 3 short verses near the end. This song does not contain anything obvious that made it to the final album. This is the original pressing on this label.

Picture CD. This is another condensed version of the SALOME sessions. It looks very professional, with many good pictures, and some kind of "Island" logo in the back of the jewel case itself. All of the song titles are creations of bootleggers (the true titles are unknown). The titles are entirely arbitrary, of course, and some of these tracks have been called other things on other boots. All of these tracks (an many more) appear on Jewels' SALOME THE [AXTUNG BEIBI] OUTTAKES. High quality sound! All tracks are start with a "fade-in." "For Promotional Use only, Not for sale." is printed on the picture CD itself. The following (which was mostly lifted from the "Pseudo-Official Salome Liner Notes") is printed inside the CD jacket: "In the winter of 1990, U2 were hard at work in Hansa Ton's 44-track Recording Studio-2 in Berlin, Germany. The ultimate result of this effort would be the November 1991 release of their next album 'Achtung Baby.' However, in December 1990, that album was a great way off, because U2, unlike most other bands, entered the studio with very few lyric or song ideas. Instead, U2 came into the studio to create as well as record. Here they sought inspirations for songs from playing together. They would "etch out" ideas while improvising around some basic idea, or riff. Since all this "jamming" was taking place in a recording studio, even the simplest of ideas was captured on tape. The highlights of these tapes were then edited down and compiled into "working tapes" recorded onto DAT. Tapes of this nature were used to hold possible song ideas, as well as a means for Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois to hear the band's progress and make suggestions about the music. In April 1991, it was announced that such tapes had found their way into the hands of bootleggers. Since then, the "working tapes" have been pressed in a variety of forms. U2's manager Paul McGuiness reacted to the bootlegs by releasing a press statement accusing the bootleggers of cheating the fans by passing off inferior material. He also stated that the finished product had evolved by leaps and bounds from what was being illegally circulated. Regardless of the superior polish of the finished material released as 'Achtung Baby', the material found on the illegal releases is fascinating in and of itself. The most compelling aspect about the rough mixed material is that, rather than offering slightly alternative versions of tracks found on the finished record, they instead reveal the songwriting process itself and there is also a host of interesting songs that didn't find their way onto 'Achtung Baby.' Island Records now proudly presents the essential unreleased material from these "working tapes" on this promotional CD to give our regards to all those who helped to promote U2 past the last years." Unless this is EXTREMELY cheap, I'd skip this one if I were you, and save up for the complete 3CD SALOME THE [AXTUNG BEIBI] OUTTAKES from Jewels. There are two completely different versions of this CD. Nothing new here, but a trimming down of SALOME to a listenable length. If you haven't already plunked down for the 3CD version of this material, this single disc is a far more pleasant listening experience. This is the original pressing on this label.

Sound Quality: May be good audience. Comments: While the CD case clearly says "Recorded at the Houston Astrodome, etc...," there are several clues which indicate to me that this show is actually from the Silverdome, Detroit, September 9, 1992. First, during "Zoo Station", Bono at one point sings "...Detroit City tonight..." and later, during "The Fly", he yells "Achtung Motown." Pretty obvious... A more subtle clue occurs before "Even Better Than the Real Thing". The channel hopping sequence contains the famous MTV Music Awards conversation with Garth (Dana Carvey), which definitely happened at the Detroit show. This is also definitely not a soundcheck show. It's hard to tell whether it's audience or soundboard. The audience is there, but you don't hear the kind of noise one normally associates with an audience show. At the same time, the instrument mix would indicate that this is probably not a soundboard tape. Overall, the quality is quite good. The only gripe I have is that the guitar level is too low at times, most notably during "Zoo Station", "Desire", and "Sunday Bloody Sunday". All in all, this is a very listenable CD.

There is too much echo and occasional intrusions by the people around the taper. This bootleg comes housed in a bland double (thick) jewel case. A whole lot better of a performance than the Vegas show, which was the only concert I'd listened to before this. However, the quality is a bit lacking, especially when the Sarajevo broadcast is now easily obtainable. Worth picking up only by the dedicated (hard core) fan. Pretty good quality overall. According to the guy who sold this to me (usually quite reliable) there won't be too many of this particular boot released in the US. Most will be sold in Japan where it was made. The guy who sold it to me said there were only 100 in the US and he had 80 of them, so I doubt there will be that many of this particular boot sold here in America. He also said it was limited pressing of 500 CDs, but we all know how that can change. He's a very reliable source, so I have no reason to doubt him. Of course, it could always be reprinted on another label. This is the original pressing on this label.

The previously-released ZOOMERANG IN ADELAIDE set cut the encore. This show seemed a bit more honest and less 'planned' than Sydney. The phone call was never explained properly. The person whom Bono called was an ex-soccer coach named Graham Cornes (who is now a television commentator). Cornes had just married a 17 year-old girl and had gotten her pregnant - mind you this is when Cornes was about 46 years old! That's why Bono was saying that he knew Cornes could help him out with the "young girlies." I doubt that this adds to the show, but it does make the whole thing a bit funnier.

Interview Source: January 30, 1986. Dublin, Ireland. RTE: 'TV GaGa.' Sound Quality: Good professional recording. Comments: This is an abbreviated version of the first interview on the LIMITED EDITION INTERVIEW DISC with a slightly grainier sound quality. The most notable aspect of this CD is the hologram on it. It appears to depict someone's idea of a Trabant running down someone else's idea of the Joshua Tree. Strange. "Applied Holographics. Mastered by Nimbus." This is not a bootleg. It is a "legitimate" interview CD, featuring U2. There is no music on this CD at all. This is the original pressing on this label.

RAI Europa Hal. Sound Quality: Excellent audience. Most of the bonus tracks are very good audience. Comments: This bootleg nicely documents the final dates of The Lovetown Tour, featuring the last performance in its entirety and a generous selection of bonus tracks from other dates. The worst-recorded track on this bootleg is easily "Hawkmoon 269", but it's an interesting performance, with The Edge playing a slide-guitar intro. The booklet is pretty minimal, but contains a listing of all the Lovetown Tour dates. B.B. King appears on Tracks 14-16. It should be noted that this was the last concert U2 ever ended with "40". These recordings have also been released in the same form on ROTTERDAM, on the Golden Stars and Live Storm labels, and on Pluto's PRIDE and GLORIA. It is probably worth mentioning that there is significant audience noise throughout the entire show. Although you're not listening to just a few people singing along, you can hear the whole crowd singing along to most songs. It does not detract from the band, though. This is the original pressing on this label.

This CD, and CDs like THE ULTIMATE COLLECTION, are a blatant attempt to rip off the band. There is nothing new, live, rare, or unreleased here. Every single song on this CD is taken directly from the albums which are available everywhere. I would STRONGLY discourage anyone and everyone from purchasing this type of bootleg. If you want a real "Best Of U2" collection, buy all of U2's CDs and make yourself a "mix" tape, don't buy shit like this. Be on the lookout for this type of bootleg CD, and don't waste your money.

Sport Paleis Ahoy. Sound Quality: Good-very good soundboard (see below). Comments: The sound of this recording has obviously been tampered with to remove the high frequency distortion present on the master recording. However, in reducing this interference, the high frequency components of the music have suffered tremendously. The bass and midrange have been boosted too much, resulting in vocal distortion and an overall lound which is too "loud" in spots, for lack of a better description. Skip this one and go after FALLING IN LOVE or one of the other boots for a more enjoyable recording of this great show. It is also available on UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD. The overall mix is very good; a "raw" sound that is rare on ZooTV recordings. The sound resolution is excellent, such that you can hear Bono's breath. On the other hand, it is somewhat distorted sound wavers slightly in pitch, and the recording level was a little too high. The performance is pretty good, with an excellent cover of "Stand By Me". This is the original pressing on this label.

Sound Quality : Good audience. Comments: Only a limited number of copies of this bootleg exist. A decent recording with a noisy audience. This is from the Love Town tour that followed the release of 'Rattle And Hum.' "Hawkmoon 269" contains a nasty edit about two minutes in. This is unfortunate, because this song is only performed a few times on this tour. It is followed by three more 'Rattle And Hum' songs. The crowd are clearly "into" the show; clapping and singing along. The band are in good form, even joking when they mess up at the beginning of "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For." During "God Part II," Bono's voice gives out. He misses a verse, but then sings it again, screaming. He croaks out "Help" and has the audience sing the second verse. He attempts "Bad," but skips the high notes. He leaves the Edge to sing "Van Dieman's Land." Bono returns and attempts a couple of more songs, allowing the audience to pick up the slack, but his voice is shot. As a result of Bono's voice problems, the show ended prematurely. During the encore, only "40" is played, leaving the B.B. King section out. The disc ends with the promoter telling the audience to hang onto their tickets. The next two concerts, which were planned for the next two nights, were postponed until January, 1990. The CD has nice cover art, with some official photos taken from The Love Town Tour book and on the inlay, a picture of a ticket to this show is printed. A nice bootleg after all, covering the whole show. It will be very hard (if not impossible) to find though. This is the original pressing on this label.

A great performance (containing the complete set list) for a very enthusiastic Boston crowd, combined with a superb recording, make this a must-have addition to any collection (which would explain why it has been pressed in so many different forms). This CD was probably mastered from a better source than the OUT OF CONTROL disc, as there doesn't seem to be any static or surface noise, it's possible this CD was mastered from the original source tape, rather than vinyl.

Comments: This CD is essentially the same concert as DANCING ZOO TV and SATELLITE FROM STOCKHOLM. Please read those reviews for more information about the Stockholm concert. "Bad" does go into a brief "All I Want Is You", similar to many concerts on the first leg of the tour. What makes this CD complete in my opinion are the bonus tracks from 'Zooropa'. I recommend getting one of the Stockholm concerts for those looking for a recording from the first leg of the ZOO TV Tour. U2 plays well, and the recording is outstanding.

Comments: Listed on the back as DDD, it is most likely a digital audience recording because the sound is just not that good. This is the first time on the tour that "Redemption Song" is played and before singing it, Bono appeals for the return of his notebook which was stolen from the band's hotel in the Spring. Also parts of "My Way" creep into "With Or Without You". The packaging is the real story here. It is a gorgeous fold out cardboard box. There is a very descriptive booklet which details the night, song for song. All the outside tour dates are listed as well as a replica of the ticket from that night. It's a shame that the sound does not live up to the packaging. Listed as being recorded by Flying Fish Mobile Studio (whetever that is). This is the original pressing on this label.

Wembley Arena. Disc 2 (4-12): September 17, 1984. Melbourne, Australia. Sports And Entertainment Center. Sound Quality: Disc 1, Disc 2 (1-3): Very good audience. Disc 2 (4-12): Good-very good audience. Comments: Deluxe color digipack package. Very interesting versions of songs from 'The Unforgettable Fire' songs on the Melbourne tracks. Also a lot of older songs are played on this bootleg that were never played again on later tours. This CD is of similar quality to two other excellent CDs from 'The Unforgettable Fire'-era, THE UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT and FOUR AT FOUR. Unfortunately, though, this CD has been mastered at the wrong speed. As a result, the pitch of the Wembley show is too fast by nearly 1/2 a step. The bonus tracks are even worse; they are off in pitch by nearly a whole step. If attention to details such as proper pitch matters to you, and if you have the ears to tell the difference, don't buy this CD. If, on the other hand, such things don't matter to you, or if you can't tell the difference anyway, then it is a worthy CD to add to your collection. It's hard to imagine how anyone could not recognize how bad the bonus tracks are, though. They sound more like the Chimpunks than U2. Finally, this recording is *not* from November 14, 1984, as the manufacturer claims. It is from the second night at Wembley Arena, London, England on November 15, 1984. This CD could have been terrific, since it's one of the best concerts from the first European leg of the Unforgettable Fire tour, and it includes (among many other highlights) some beautiful improvisational scat singing before "Bad" that I've never heard Bono sing prior to this show or since. It's a shame the manufacturer didn't pay enough attention to details to get this one right. This is the original pressing on this label.

Sound Quality: Very good audience. Comments: U2 put on a good performance at a small club on their first visit to West Germany. It seems the audience is somewhat unreceptive for the first half of the concert, but the band wins their support by the end of the set, which is featured in its entirety on this disc. This would be a great bootleg, but pales in comparison to the superb recordings available of the concert from Boston, March 6, 1981 (See ANOTHER TIME, ANOTHER PLACE), which feature an identical setlist. It may be his experiences in Europe at about this time that Bono later described in "Stranger In A Strange Land". Color cover. This is the original pressing on this label.

I have no idea who it is singing, but it definitely is a cover band. They drop all pretension when it comes to Track 4 and bring in a female vocalist to do the Berlin cover. Some of the music almost sounds as if it is produced with a MIDI program rather then the actual instruments. The cover is black with a photo from the Joshua Tree on the front, and a Live Aid picture of U2 on the back. No need to get this one unless you like curiosities. This is the original pressing on this label. BETTER THAN THE REAL THING - LIVE!

Sound Quality: Disc 1, Disc 2 (1-10): Very good audience Disc 2 (11, 12): Good audience. Comments: These discs contain the entire first PopMart show including all the mistakes, false starts, and sound problems. The recording itself is very good. A few excited members of the audience can be heard quite clearly chatting away and screaming extremely loudly at times. This is made up for in the fact that the new 'Pop' songs (and the others) come across very clearly on the recording. The last two songs on Disc 2 are listed as "Holy Joe" and "Pride (In The Name Of Love)," but are actually "Mofo" and "I Will Follow." These are of a poor sound quality and the lack of any crowd noise makes me believe that they could be from a soundcheck. A bonus in my opinion. A very good set of the "historic" Las Vegas show. Well worth a listen. This is the original pressing on this label.

BONO IN CONVERSATION Manufacturer: Baktabak Catalog: CBAK 4075 Matrix: CBAK 4075 A2 Barcode: 5017744360753 (61:45) Billy Jacobs 1. Interview Source: Unknown. Hotel Room. Sound Quality: Good private interview. Sounds like a recording from a reporter's portable tape recorder. Comments: This is not a bootleg. It is a "legitimate" interview CD, featuring U2. There is no music on this CD at all. Whoever taped this must have put a recorder in their hotel room. More than just Bono talking, it sounds like Larry, Adam, and maybe others. Must have taken place sometime after 'The Unforgettable Fire', since some tracks are discussed. The group discusses topics such as group background, public image, weaknesses of Bono (by himself), etc. The discussion varies from deep discussion to the ordering of room service. Since it was most likely recorded on a generic hand-held tape recorder, the audio from those further away is lower, and harder to hear at times. This is the original pressing on this label.

Disc 2 has a picture of Bono as The Mirrorball Man. A good show from the indoor leg of the ZOO TV Tour. Disc 2, Tracks 9-13 are from soundchecks. Overall very much worth it.

The sources of the song were poorly printed and are very hard to read (light red on red print). The cover features a picture of Bono sitting in a chair with a guitar in his hands. On the back is a picture of Bono in his Mac Phisto look. The CD is a black picture CD, featuring Bono coming out of the dark and the word 'SOLO' in big orange print. Inside are many pictures of Bono from past to present. "Two Shots Of Happy, One Shot Of Sad" has a live intro in what can be termed as "Vegas- style" with Bono stating, "Hello Los Angelos..." The version of "One" is very cool, with Bono singing with Michael Stipe of R.E.M.. "Give Me Back My Job" is from Carl Perkins' 'Go Cat Go' and features Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, and Tom Petty. Overall, a nice CD. This is the original pressing on this label.

Comments: Tracks 1 and 9 also feature Robbie Robertson). Tracks 2and 10 and feature many other artists. Track 3 features Willie Nelson. Tracks 4 and 5 feature Luciano Pavorotti and Brian Eno. Track 8 features Sinead O'Connor. Track 11 features T-Bone Burnett. Most of the other tracks feature the entire band also. This is a nice collection of tracks by one or more members of U2. I don't know why this compilation is called BONO THE COMPLETE SOLO PROJECTS VOLUME TWO. In my opinion, a better title for this CD would have been: U2 - DUETS II. The entire band is involved on all but three tracks of this CD. Most tracks are easy to find on official CDs but it's nice to have them all together so you don't have to buy an entire album for only one or two U2-related tracks. This is still an excellent-sounding collection of U2 (and-U2 related) tracks for the people who do not yet own all of these tracks. It's a nice CD with some music that you will only find on tribute albums or compilations. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to have a barcode or manufacturer. There are some slight errors on the tracklisting, but the above should be correct. This is the original pressing on this label. BONO TALKS IN PHILADELPHIA - 1987 Manufacturer: Baktabak Catalog: CBAK 4006 Matrix: CBAK 4006 MASTERED BY NIMBUS Barcode: None (40:10) From: Frank R. S. (frankrse@cp-tel.net) 1. Interview Source: Unknown. Sounds like a recording from a reporter's portable tape recorder. Sound Quality: Good private interview. Background noise makes it sound as if this was recorded in a restaurant or diner. Comments: This is not a bootleg. It is a "legitimate" interview CD, featuring U2. There is no music on this CD at all. This interview is almost exclusively with Bono, although Adam chimes in for a few seconds. Bono talks about his theory of "THE song", song impressions, the whole songwriting process, etc. Next, he talks about working on the 'The Unforgettable Fire', and the "new" ('The Joshua Tree') songs. The interview next moves on to Bruce Springsteen comparisons, and the whole "rock and roll star" status symbol. After Adam buts in for a second, Bono shares his thoughts about Adam, before ending the interview by talking about the "arena" stage of the band, and finally, Bono shares some thoughts on Brian Eno. It starts right in the middle of the interview, also ends that way. Good thing about this is that it is a one-on-one interview. The interviewer is very knowledgeable of their music which takes interview to a more than superficial interview. Overall it's not that bad cool picture CD not too much overall. Good collector CD. This is the original pressing on this label.

This is one of the greatest concerts of 1993! A lot of surprises and improvisations (such as The Edge singing "Party Girl" alone and also a simple birthday song for Bono). "I Will Follow" sounds a little improvised, but it's a good surprise. This is from a better source than BONO'S BIRTHDAY PARTY from the Take It Or Leave It label. The sound quality much better on this one. "Unchained Melody", "Bono's Birthday Song", "My Girl" and "Are You Lonesome Tonight" not listed on CD.

The only bad things about this CD is that the sound is not very good and the last song, "Are You Lonesome Tonight", is missing.

Angel Of Harlem 10. When Love Comes To Town 11. Sunday Bloody Sunday 12. Bullet The Blue Sky 13. With Or Without You 14. Love Is Blindness 15. Can't Help Falling In Love Sources: (1-8): September 9, 1992. Pontiac, MI. Pontiac Silverdome. (9-15): September 13, 1992. Madison, WI. Camp Randall Stadium. Sound Quality: (1-8): Good audience. (9-15) Fair audience. Both suffer from bad reverberation during speaking parts which makes it hard to discern what is being said. Both have little to no audience screaming within close range of the microphones (no one yelling "Bono!" etc.) which is pretty good for audience recordings. Comments: The cover is from 'The Joshua Tree' photo session, but material is ZOO TV era. A little bit of wow and flutter in "Mysterious Ways". A complete drop out in "New Year's Day", lasting eight seconds, which is supplemented by another recording of really poor quality (from another show probably). Dana Carvey appears as Garth for the TV part right before "Even Better Than The Real Thing" and also plays the drums along with the song. The sound of Garth's drums is fed over satellite and mixed in with Larry's drums, but you can really only hear it during the guitar solo when Bono says "Drum solo, Garth." I feel the first two tracks, "Zoo Station" and "The Fly", are the best recordings on this booleg. The rest are poorer quality, even if they are from the same tape. This would most likely be a treasure to anyone who attended either of these shows. See also: THE EYE OF THE FLY. This is the original pressing on this label.

"40" Source: December 12, 1997. Seattle, WA. Seattle Kingdome. Sound Quality : Good audience. Comments: Overall, a good bootleg. The sound is really good with the exception of the bass being almost non-existent and a few echoes because of the venue. Bono is in top form. His voice doesn't miss a beat. A very emotional and high-powered set as it was the last US show. You can hear the people around the recorder, but they're really not that annoying. A great show if you were there. The only disappointment is "Mysterious Ways" because of the bass problem. Due to various complaints that reviews from Danyel Ramelo (AKA POPclerk) were not impartial (since he manufactured them himself), all of the comments that he submitted for his CD-R bootlegs have been removed. If you own this CD-R set (like it or not), please send in a review. Additional comments and info needed on this bootleg. This is the original pressing on this label.

This one also has a few bonus tracks so it may be the best one to get (out of all the other available bootlegs from this show). One other note: this is the first time that "Redemption Song" was played live on this tour. This is the original pressing on this label.

Most of the sources are U2's CD singles (see below). Sound Quality: Very good studio quality but... Comments: Where to start? Well, many of these songs have never been played live so it's amazing how Allen Records got U2 to perform for them exclusively. I have one word for this: Bogus! Many of these tracks are taken directly from B-Sides with crowd noise overlapping the tracks. Avoid this one at all costs. You have been warned. Track 18 is listed on the CD cover as "Night And Day", but the actual song on the CD is "Running To Stand Still". This track is also one of the best versions I have heard. For the record, I have heard four different live versions. The songs that are actually live are from the 1993 Dublin broadcast. This is the original pressing on this label.

The overall balance is good, however, and I am glad I own it. This is the original pressing on this label.

Hilversum, Holland. KRO Studios. Sound Quality: Disc 1, Disc 2 (1-7): Excellent soundboard. Disc 2 (8-11): Excellent broadcast soundboard. Comments : Although many songs of this show have been released on other bootlegs, this double CD has the COMPLETE soundboard recording of the May 6, 1983 show, which is very hard to come by. Six songs have never appeared on any bootlegs of this show before. The show is charged and U2 is in great form. The bootleg comes with black cover art and photos from both 1982 and (strangely enough) 1992. The Boston date incorrectly labeled as May 29, 1983. A nice addition to any collection, especially since it covers the entire show. The Hilversum recording appears on other bootlegs. Both shows were recorded for radio broadcast, but I believe the master tape from the Boston sow was used to master this CD. You should definitely pick this up. This is probably the best recorded representation of a U2 show from the 1983 tour. The only flaw in the Boston show is a 2-second "skip" (quite like a record would do) during the piano intro to "I Fall Down." However, a careful listen doesn't reveal any surface noise one would expect from a recording mastered from vinyl. The Holland tracks are a nice addition. This is the original pressing on this label.

"Stay"' is listed as the last track, but it is not on the CD. This is one of two of the original pressings on this unknown label.

Comments: This bootleg doesn't contain any hiss or tick as expected from a vinyl source, so I am assuming that it was taken from the master tapes, but it is possible that the last two songs were from taken the 'Under A Blood Red Sky' video. Most of the tracks on this bootleg are on the official video release 'Under A Blood Red Sky.' I tried compare this CD to the 'Under A Blood Red Sky' video and they both sound exactly alike. This means that this bootleg is edited just like the 'Under A Blood Red Sky' album was. The sound quality is almost exactly the same (although I prefer this to 'Under A Blood Red Sky'), but this one has a richer bass drum giving it a more "live" feel. The audience volume levels are exactly the same without sacrificing any sound quality. Much has been said about the COMPLETE BOSTON TAPES, and although I haven't heard that bootleg yet, I'd have to assume this is better simply because this sounds even better than 'Under A Blood Red Sky!' This bootleg is probably hard to find nowadays. It is definitely worth the price, though. The best pre- Joshua Tree bootleg out there bar-none (in my opinion). I can state that it is the full show and it is of excellent quality, but there is one lingering question. "I Threw A Brick Through A Window" and "A Day Without Me" actually come before "Gloria" on the set list, but not having the CD in front of me, I can't confirm the actual order. Can anyone else? This can be found in a shorter edited version that is more polished on the CD entitled SECONDS. This is the original pressing on this label.

Comments: An excellent performance that marks the last date of the 1987 European tour, as well as the The Edge's 27th birthday. During "People Get Ready", Bono pulls an audience member onto the stage to play his guitar. He also explains how The Edge has been giving him guitar lessons. "Exit" doesn't segue into U2's "Gloria", but rather into the Van Morrison song of the same title. This is the original pressing on this label.

My girlfriend bought it for me in Italy, so I imagine it's simply a European issue that hasn't ever made it to the States. There's nothing special about this that would make someone want it more than COVERING 'EM. The packaging is okay, but nothing flashy; two of the photos are taken straight off the 'Achtung Baby' cover. There are some errors in the track listing: Pete, Seeger is listed as the writer of "Disaster"; ABBA is listed as having written "Unchained Melody"; "She's A Mystery To Me" is listed as "Mystery Girl"; and "Slow Dancing" and "She's A Mystery To Me" are listed as written by Willie Nelson and Roy Orbison, respectively (these songs were written FOR them, not BY them. "One" is the Automatic Baby version with Mike Mills and Michael Stipe (on vocals). This is the original pressing on this label.

The back has the track listing and a picture of The Edge with his ski roll cap on playing guitar. The inside has recording locations (some are incorrect), and another track listing. Nice, but hard to listen to all the way through, because just about every song is from a different venue. However, I (and many people I have talked to) buy bootlegs of U2 (and others) to get odd and off-the-wall recordings of songs not played at every concert. If you are one of these persons, buy this record immediately. This is one of three of the original pressings on this label.

The bass sound is much to loud, making the CD a bit unpleasant to listen to. By using an equalizer and tuning the 1-150 Hertz range the quality becomes very good. Comments: The discs are not indexed. This degrades the CD. Each disc has only 2 tracks. Track 2 on Disc 1 starts at Stay. Track 2 of Disc 2 starts at the video confessions. The pictures on the cover are from 1989. The pictures on the back and inside are from 1985. This concert has the 2nd performance of "Stay". Other specials are "I Will Follow" and the video link with Sarajevo.

Sound Quality: Very good to excellent soundboard. Comments: There is a slight hiss in the background while they are not playing but this is a very good soundboard recording. Awesome versions of "Tryin' To Throw Your Arms Around The World", "Sunday Bloody Sunday" and "With Or Without You." Very good to excellent sound quality. The microphones pick up the audience from time to time, but it's one of the best bootlegs that I have heard. It still has a slight hiss, but is remastered and sounds MUCH better than the tape of this show that has been floating around for the past couple of years. The place I bought this CD from had literally tons of copies, so hopefully they will be everywhere soon. A "must-have," especially if you don't own any ZooTV Outside Broadcast shows. A very good (and complete) recording for the collection. This is the original pressing on this label.

Disc 2 (1-4, 6-7): Assoorted singles and B-sides. Disc 2 (5): Unknown. Disc 2 (8-10, 12-15): Unknown radio show. Disc 2 (11): January 30, 1986. Dublin, Ireland. RTE: 'TV GaGa'. Sound Quality: The recording speed of the studio demos is too fast and there is some hiss. The singles have excellent studio and soundboard sound. The sound quality of the others varies a great deal, from audience to soundboard. Most, if not all of the tracks are mastered from vinyl resulting in some ticks and pops. Comments: This is not a very good bootleg. The studio demos are available with much better sound quality on CONTRACT DEMOS, SHADOWS AND TALL TREES, etc. Almost all of the tracks from the singles are easily obtainable on Island CD-singles with much better sound. This would only be worth for some of the not-so-frequent live tracks like "Tomorrow" and "Womanfish". The track editing is also very bad (i.e. Track 2 ends at the beginning of Track 3, etc.). The radio show tracks have little pieces of interviews with the band at the beginning and/or end of each song. There were also some errors on the track listing. This is the original pressing on this label. DESIRE VOL. 1 Manufacturer: Banana Catalog: BAN-048-A Matrix: BAN-048A Barcode: 7 66111 10481 4 (53:22) 1. Intro 2. God Part II 3. Desire 4.

The vocals on some tracks are a little weak, and "If God will Send His Angels" is very bad. There is no "Pop Muzik Intro" on this bootleg, so the CD starts with "Mofo." Other than that, this is a pretty good bootleg of a definitely good show. Additional comments and info needed on this bootleg. This is the original pressing on this label.

Unchained Melody [2:20] Source: September 23, 1997. Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegowina. Kosovo Stadium. Sound Quality: Good to very good stereo broadcast. Comments: One of the better shows from the PopMart Tour. Bono's voice cracks up a bit, but the band makes up for it. This is one of the nicest bootleg I've seen; it's almost perfect! The concert is very emotional. You definitely feel that playing Sarajevo was very important to the band. Highlights include "Gone," "Sunday Bloody Sunday," "Where The Streets Have No Name," "Miss Sarejevo," and "One." This is the best version of "One" I've ever heard; Edge's guitar is blistering and Bono's speech in the end ("To be united is a great thing, but to respect differences perhaps an even greater thing. So for the city of the future, Sarajevo! City of the Future! Sarajevo! City of the Future!") always gives me goose bumps! Bono's voice breaks after about 6 songs, but it holds up through the show except for "With Or Without You," when he really struggles. The whole band plays incredibly well, and Bono makes up for his lack of voice with emotion and intensity. You really feel for him, because you can tell how frustrating it is for him not to be able to give Sarajevo his best. The crowd helps him out though; singing along with (and for) Bono when he can't throughout the entire show. In fact, determination and the crowd's generosity end up creating an atmosphere probably more intense than it otherwise would have been. This is a beautiful concert and will definitely stand as one of the most memorable in U2's career. This CD has front and back inserts. The liner notes feature a Reuters report of the event, with a brief history on Bono's promise to go perform there and complete '97 PopMart tour dates. The booklets features lots of Pop-era pictures. Clever use of colors and design makes this 16-page booklet well worth looking. Both CD's have cool graphics on them. The packaging is extremely well done, it might as well have been an official release. Considerable time has been spent on layout, graphics, text and photos. It really is beautiful. At Sarajevo, Bono may have lost his voice mid-way through, but U2 have found theirs. Relying on a bedrock of older concert pleasers, The Edge's guitar shines through and Larry Mullen drums even sound heavier. As Bono predicted after the lame start of the Pop Mart tour, U2 need a warm up period to get their act together and this evening's song selection bears that out. They've strategically placed all their new 'Pop' sounds in-between old songs. Opening the show with a recording of "Pop Muzik" segueing into their live rendition of "Mofo" then hotfooting to the safety of "I Will Follow" gives the new songs a foundation. "Staring At The Sun," the best tune on 'Pop,' is played acoustically to emphasize melody and is then followed immediately by an acoustic version of "Sunday Bloody Sunday," with The Edge singing and playing it solo. The crowd enthusiastically joins in. The other high point of is when Bono sings snippets of Talking Heads' "Life During Wartime" (with a terribly relevant lyric "This ain't no party, this ain't no disco, this ain't no foolin' around") inside U2's "Discotheque" makes an immediate connection with the crowd. And when the show slacks with a tediously slow "If You Wear That Velvet Dress" from the new album, U2 know how to salvage proceedings when The Edge's guitar lines lead into "With Or Without You." They also come away from Sarajevo with their rep intact but probably less wealthy than before. U2 spent $1 million to set up their mega show far he Bosnians and charged low ticket prices to attract the 50,000 crowd. Bono has been using U2 concerts as far back as the Mac Phisto (Zooropa) shows to attack the West for failing to stop the Bosnian war. When he tells the crowd he wrote "Miss Sarajevo" for them, they scream gratefulness. PopMart has been about caricaturing the commercialism that's prevalent in pop by being a megahype itself and finally U2 have managed to stand inside that market and yet to be untainted. At least their rock 'n' roll attitude is intact, if their new music is less exciting. When they close the show with "One." U2 are at their bravest ("Have you come here for forgiveness?... Have you come here to play Jesus?") making clear their uncertainty, but also connecting with their Christian roots. It's a reminder that their music has always stood for something. Whoever chose the title for this bootleg has shown that bootleggers can get straight to the heart of the matter. Throughout their recent shows, U2 have been fighting to stay relevant and DISCONNECT is anything but about their failure to communicate. The way DISCONNECT has been recorded, with the crowd noise always engaging in the mix, makes this a happening event despite Bono's voice breaking at times. Probably the most relevant U2 gig in recent times and the one to get for a taste of PopMart '97. A nice bootleg. This is the original pressing on this label.

Cant Help Falling In Love Source: August 28,1993. Dublin, Ireland. Royal Dublin Society Showgrounds. Sound Quality: Excellent soundboard broadcast. This is ZOO RADIO at its finest! Comments: This was broadcast worldwide on the radio. Bono tries to call the United Nations after Desire and gets an answering machine. The only bad thing is the cover and packaging, its pretty boring. There are no pictures and when the sleeve is opened there's just a big Live Storm logo with Italian print over it. I listened to it and the "Tryin' To Throw You Arms Around The World" version is complete (with the "Dublin City says I will.." ending). Bad and Bullet are both on disc two thus having no continuity problems. However, I tested it only on the record store and I wasn't able to listen if the show was complete with the Zoo TV Confessions and the Elvis ending. But if it has the full show, and since it had "Bad" and "Bullet The Blue Sky" on the same disc, this is potentially the best alternative pressing to buy for this show. With regards to sound quality, it is pretty much the same as the other pressings of this show. I wasn't able to really listen closely to the fidelity so this may be a better- or lesser-sounding bootleg, but definitely only by a small fraction. This is one of two of the original pressings on this label.

Sound Quality: All of the songs are almost excellent quality (as one would guess) because they all seem to be taken from professionally recorded and produced material. There were no skips in any of the tracks, but you can hear an hiss or light pop (usually only when the music is fading in or out) occasionally. Comments: I really enjoy having all the early songs on one CD. Although every song has been released by CBS or Island, they are all out of print and very hard to find (not to mention very expensive). In my opinion, it was well worth the $20 to have the 20 songs ($1 per song is pretty darn good!). Although it's not original digital mastering, the quality is at least as good as that of a vinyl copy in excellent shape. I like the song choices and how they are arranged. It seems as if a bit of thought went into making the arrangement of this CD flow smoothly. I certainly don't regret having it and can't imagine anyone being disappointed with it.

The front cover features the band in front of the large PopMart screen. Other pictures include two pictures of Bono and one of Adam. The sound quality is not bad, but it doesn't sound really dynamic. It's a little flat and there is a lot of audience clapping and yelling. Disc 1, Track 12 features a Bono doing an Elvis imitation for about 50 seconds. On Disc 2, right before "Please" is played, Bono yells "Take that laser off my fucking face, pal!" Additional comments and info needed on his bootleg. I find this recording is not as good as I thought it was when I bought it. I bought it only because is was better then the "LAST NIGHT IN EUROPE" set which I also listened to at the shop. I think the concert is only so-so; nothing special. Instead of what is stated on the tracklisting, there is no Track 12 (which is supposedly and "Elvis Medley.") The photo's on the sleeve are nice to see but not very special. Buy this recording only when you are a completist. I prefer my MISS SARAJEVO. The discs are not picture discs.

Sound Quality: Disc 1, Disc 2 (1-9): Excellent television broadcast. Disc 2 (10-12): Very good audience. Disc 2 (13): Excellent audience. Comments: This is very, very cool show! The band pulls off a brilliant performance. "Mothers Of The Disappeared (incl. El Pueblo Vencera)" is an outstanding and rare performance on PopMart in which Bono as introduction talks to the former Chile dictator Agosto Pinochet. During the song the actual mothers of "disappeared" children talk about when and where they lost their children. One disappointment though: at the end of "Where The Streets Have No Name," the song fades and cuts out the "Lemon (Perfecto Mix) Intermission" to "Discothèque." The Santiago crowd is very enthusiastic and help make this show very memorable. Their shouting and cheering doesn't take away from the quality of this bootleg. One of the best concerts from the PopMart tour captured in the absolute best form I have heard. The sound mix is near perfect. A stunning performance, with the first performance of "Bad" on the PopMart tour. The sheer power of "One" and "Mothers Of The Disappeared," with the Mothers coming up on stage with the band is overwhelming. "Staring At TheSun" is not complete. Do not pass this one up! This is the original pressing on this label. ENJOY Manufacturer: Who Am I? Catalog: WAI 018/19 Matrix: Disc 1: TSD WAI-018 Disc 2: TSD WAI-019 Barcode: None Disc 1: (68:35) Disc 2: (70:03) From: J.

Bonus Tracks (see below) Source: Disc 1, Disc 2 (1-6): November 7, 1987. Denver, CO. McNichols Arena. Disc 2 (7-13): 1987. Long Island, NY. Sound Quality: Very good soundboard. There is some static on a few tracks (particularly "October") and some of the high frequencies are cut off slightly, however both are minor problems. The CD is still great to listen to. The bonus tracks are of good quality. Comments: The band puts on a great performance for Denver. During the set, Bono briefly mentions the Red Rocks show they played over 4 years ago. The bootleg claims the source was the November 8 show. See also MCNICHOL'S ARENA. As for the "bonus tracks", they are recordings (about 35 minutes worth) of Bono and Edge working on a song or two with acoustic guitars, with the "help" of Jimmy Iovine (not Daniel Lanois, as is claimed on the packaging). These recordings were pulled straight from one of the 'Rattle And Hum' outtakes videos. At the beginning of the session, they're listening to a tape of some U2 studio sessions, then they begin changing it around and experimenting. The song is "She's Gonna Blow Your House Down", which appears on the SALOME 'Achtung Baby' outtakes (Disc 2, Tracks 8,9,11). Edge begins playing "Van Diemen's Land", without lyrics, although it seems is if he hasn't quite finished it yet. All in all, a pretty interesting recording.

(9-15) Fair audience. Comments: Both suffer from bad reverberation during speaking parts which makes it hard to discern what is being said. Both have little to no audience screaming within close range of the microphones (no one yelling "Bono!" etc.) which is pretty good for audience recordings. I've seen the Detroit songs elsewhere, but not the Madison show. Madison may be an audience recording and sounds very bassy. Dana Carvey appears as Garth for the TV part right before "Even Better Than The Real Thing" and also plays the drums along with the song. The sound of Garth's drums is fed over satellite and mixed in with Larry's drums, but you can really only hear it during the guitar solo when Bono says "Drum solo, Garth." This would most likely be a treasure to anyone who attended either of these shows. See also: BULLET THE BLUE SKY. This is the original pressing on this label.

There is high frequency distortion is present on Disc 1, but it is barely audible. Unfortunately, this distortion increases on Disc 2. This interference is generally only noticeable between songs and during "breaks in the action". Perhaps it would be more enjoyable on speakers than with headphones. Otherwise, this is a truly excellent recording. Comments: An excellent early concert from the indoor stage of the ZOO TV Tour. The packaging says only "Recorded live In Europe during '92 world tour", but enough other boots of this concert exist to easily pin this one down. Tracks 11 and 12 are not contained on other boots of this concert thus, their origin is unknown. The covers of "Dancing Queen" and "Stand By Me" on this set are complete and well done. This bootleg is very enjoyable and recommended. Truly one of the best early ZOO TV Tour bootlegs in circulation, in my opinion. This concert (minus Tracks 11 and 12 of Disc 2) is also available on other labels as AM ZOO, THE REAL THING and UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD. This is the original pressing on this label.

London, England. Wembley Stadium. Disc 2 (10): August 12, 1993. London, England. Wembley Stadium. Sound Quality: Very good audience. There are times, however, where Bono`s voice gets a little faint, especially during "Can`t Help Falling In Love", when the crowd starts singing along. Also, one channel (the left?) is slightly louder but an equalizer should remedy this. Comments: It`s a great bootleg despite the slight channel problem and Bono`s occasionally faint voice. The call to Salman Rushdie is great. "Zooropa" and "Babyface" are surprises. I don`t know how often they played them. The second "Bad" and "The First Time" is from August 12, 1993. It features violinist L. Shankar playing with the band. The violin adds a wonderful counter melody to the song. The intro on "Zoo Station" is fairly long, about 2 minutes. The Edge gets all the lines in the same order as in the studio version of "Numb". Bono does his "fuck America!" routine during "Bullet The Blue Sky". This is the original pressing on this label.

Sound Quality: Disc 1, Disc 2 (1-6): Good to very good audience. Disc 2 (7-18): Poor soundboard. Comments: The Zooropa show from Italy is good performance for an enthusiastic audience, but the audience noise really ruins it. This is the last of four shows that Pearl Jam opened for U2 (along with An Emotional Fish) and Bono mentions them at one point. The real attraction of this package are the Dublin tracks, which should be the main feature of the discs, not bonus tracks! An embryonic U2 put on a great show for about 1000 fans and friends in their home town, a full 8 months before the release of "Boy". Many of the songs feature different lyrics than the ones we're used to on their later releases. Disc 2 Track 7 is "11 O'Clock Tick Tock" with different lyrics (it's listed as "11 O'Clock Tick Tock"). Track 10 is "Touch" with different lyrics. Track 16 features the original lyrics as found on the 1980 "Another Day" B-side. Track 18 is probably some kind of "inside joke", a short fragment of Don McLean's "Vincent" (probably not the original, but I wouldn't know). The inlay card calls it "The last non-deserved tribute to the Unforgettable Fire". The title is not on the package, but is printed on the CDs themselves. Very odd. The packaging is nice, featuring numerous pictures of the band, both old and new (great one of very young Bono, The Edge, and Larry on-stage). It includes a blurb about each show, and gives thanks to a Mr. Brush for taping the Zooropa show. Not to be confused with the other FARAWAY SO CLOSE, which has a very similar title!

The sound quality varies, because the first 9 songs are studio, but the two last songs are live. This CD is great. If you like a kind of funky, disco-like "Discotheque," or an unusual "Numb," you should buy this. I don't care that much for remixes, but the mix of "Stay (Faraway, So Close!)" is really great! These remixers are professionals. The "Stay (Faraway, So Close!)" version on this CD is better than the version from 'Zooropa.' The CD is in a special digipack, with a front cover picture of the four U2 members in a hair salon. It is a fancy cover, with pictures from the 'Pop' album booklet.

"40" Source: December 14, 1989. Dortmund, Germany. Westfalenhalle. Sound Quality: Poor audience. Comments: First and foremost, don't waste you cash on this one, kids. I payed $35 for this back in 1992, and it was not worth it. All you can hear is a muffled Bono (a result of laryngitis and bad microphone) and the audience's stomping and clapping; hence, the name "feel the noise." Edge's guitars are completely absent. The only thing I really liked about this bootleg was the tracklisting. It captures U2 at their peak and live - the best way to experience them. This CD is the same as WHEN U2 COMES TO TOWN. The disc itself features a picture of Bono holding the microphone, with his arms raised over his head. B.B. King appears on Tracks 12-14. The cover incorrectly lists the source as "Du Kuippe Arena, Rotterdam, 1989." This is the original pressing on this label.

Sound Quality: Excellent audience. Comments: The cover says that it was recorded by "Fuzzy Microphone Mobile Studios" whoever that might be. The entire show uninterrupted by stoppage in the tape. All of the pauses between songs are as they actually happened. Of the three concert CD bootlegs that I have spent money on, this one has the best sound quality, with the exception of the first 3 songs ( the recorder didn't have the right levels set). Crowd noise, although evident, is not louder than the music. Great performances of "With or Without You", "Where The Streets Have No Name", "Bad", "Bullet The Blue Sky", "One", "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", and others. The sound quality on the first few songs is not great. "Love Is Blindness" fades after only two minutes. The soundcheck stuff is interesting but the sound quality is not that great. Other than that, I really don't have many complaints. It's always a pleasant surprise to come across a bootleg with good sound. This is the original pressing on this label.

(2-11): Excellent broadcast soundboard. Comments: Track 1 is incomplete. Apparently, this is the first soundboard bootleg from the PopMart tour. The sound is awesome. A great bootleg to have if you're looking for live, perfect-sounding PopMart tracks. The very first part of "Gone" has been cut off (a German presenter was talking over it) and "Please" lacks its intro as well. Nevertheless, the transition between the Cologne and Rotterdam shows is perfect. U2 were in great shape both nights and it shows! Tracks 1 and 12 are studio songs, but they make a nice addition to the live material. This is a really good CD! A bit disappointing that "Even Better Then The Real Thing (Perfecto Mix)" and "Pop Muzik (PopMart Mix)" are studio versions and are not live. All in all a very good CD, but if you've already got POPDREAM BELIEVER, there's no real need to buy this. The sound quality is extremely good! The live recordings must be remastered or something, because the crowd noise is virtually gone. You can only barely hear the crowd at the end of each track you can hear the crowd. The cover is white with a yellow lemon in the middle with "U2" and "FIRST NIGHTS IN EUROPE" printed in red. Inside the cover is a black and white photo of the band from the PopMart-era. On the back of the inlay is another black and white photo. Inside the tray liner is a black and white photo of Adam with his mouth wide open. The back cover features a color photo of the band, sitting on a couch, in front of a palm tree. The CD itself is yellow with green psychedelic rings on it, and the words "U2 FIRST NIGHTS IN EUROPE" (also in green). Vicente Fortea (u2valencia@arrakis.es) and Kai H.

Sound Quality: Good audience. Comments: This was the second show of the ZOO TV tour and it is noticeable. In the intro of "Even Better Than The Real Thing" the rest of the band doesn't get the cues of The Edge. During "Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses" the band again needs some cues, this time from Bono. And during "Where The Streets Have No Name", Bono gets a bit mixed up with the words. Apart from these minor faults this is a good, complete concert from the beginning of the ZOO TV Tour. This bootleg has good sound quality, but in the beginning of "Zoo Station" the right level still has to be found, which is good before the ending of the song. The CD does also start halfway the intro sung by Bono, but this isn't very annoying. "Mysterious Ways" has a beautiful intro with Bono improvising and it showed the premiere of Christina, the belly dancer. "One" is dedicated to the Russian cosmonaut in orbit. "Satellite Of Love" is done in a longer version which contains the verses of the second part of the song. "Bullet The Blue Sky" has some alternate lyrics to comment about the overwhelming response for tickets. Finally, the first two verses of "Love Is Blindness" aren't sung, but spoken. The CD has nice packaging, although not U2-specific. Some errors are made in the track listing ("All I Want Is You" isn't mentioned) but everythign else looks acceptable. This isn't the quintessential ZOO TV recording, but it is nice to compare this early concert with concert at the end of the tour. This is one of two of the original pressings on this label.

Rotterdam, Holland. Sport Paleis Ahoy. Disc 2 (9-14), Disc 3: August 28,1993. Dublin, Ireland. Royal Dublin Society Showgrounds. Sound Quality: Excellent soundboard. Comments: Indeed a worthwhile effort by all collaborators on this one! Disc 1 is an exceptional take. The highly energized opening of "Sympathy For The Devil" and "God Part II" sets the pace for the first three songs (very good live versions of each one too!). The pace slows a little as U2 goes into "All I Want Is You", "Where The Streets Have No Name", and "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", but the atmosphere is perfectly created. "Where The Streets Have No Name" was dedicated to Samuel Beckett, who passed away that week. Bono says, "It's kind of sad he never made it home, but he dreamt of other lands, of another home, Where The Streets Have No Name." Then, in " I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For", Bono says (of playing back in Dublin), "We've been playing in all these BIG places, so we thought we like to play a small place again...It's nice to be home." Disc 2 begins with the continuation of the Point Depot concerts. Tracks 1-5 are the "post-card" to the European nations, as Bono wishes Czechoslovakia, Romania, Germany, etc.. a very happy new year. The tempo speeds up again as the highly charged "New Year's Day" takes the stage. This was the concert that was broadcast live to Eastern and Western Europe, so undoubtedly the emotional implications of the ending cold-war heightened the adrenaline flowing through Bono's veins at this point. Tracks 6-8 are a cut from some leg of the ZOO TV Tour. Not much to say here other than U2 did an interesting combination of "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" with "Stand By Me". Tracks 9-14 are from the worldwide broadcast of the August 28, 1993 from Dublin, Ireland. It continues on Disc 3. Nothing new as far as the Zooropa Tour goes. If you've heard these songs as part of their tour before, you've heard them on this disc. The sound quality is quite exceptional for a bootleg, with very little interference or that sort from the audience. In all, I would highly recommend this set to anyone who can get their hands on it. It was a little pricey if I can remember right, somewhere around $90CA, but worth it. The only downside is that there are no liner notes. There are only a few pictures (some of which aren't bad) that have been collected throughout the tours. Enjoy! This is the original pressing on this label.

There is a yellow "U2" on top right corner, a white "The Fly" across the bottom, and a red and white "S" in top left corner, which is the On Stage mark. During "The Fly", Bono says, "Achtung Georgia." During "Even Better Than The Real Thing", Bono says, "Check out that suit... Wooo." Before "Pride (In The Name Of Love)", Bono says, "This is your town. Can you turn it around? Turn it around." During "Pride (In The Name Of Love)", Martin Luther King's speech is "muffled", and after it Bono says, "Good night, God Bless You." Before "Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses", Bono says, "Rock and Roll. Can't live with it, can't live without it." During "Bullet The Blue Sky", Bono yells, "Outside is America. Watch him America. Watch your children, America. Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up." During "Where The Streets Have No Name", Bono sings "Georgia's no Rain."

Comments: The Chicago performance is also available (in an edited form) on THE FLAME AND THE FIRE, and PEACE UNDER A CHICAGO SKY. The cover features pictures of Bono, also used on both CDs. The booklet includes tour dates and a few colored photos. This is a great show from the Unforgettable Fire tour. The sound is great and it's a strong show. This is before the band got "mega huge." "I Will Follow" finds Bono talking to a cameraman present from the local news. "Electric Co." includes a verse of "Amazing Grace." "Bad" is strong and includes snippets of "Ruby Tuesday" and "Sympathy For The Devil," both by the Rolling Stones. It's performances like this that built U2's worldwide fame. The opening act, Red Rockers, appear with U2 on "40". A great show. The bonus tracks are available in a more complete form on PARTY AT TIFFANY. Believe it or not, Disc 2 doesn't sound as good as Disc 1. This could be due to the manufacturer paying less attention to mastering Disc 2. This is ironic because Disc 2 is just a continuation of the same concert, so one would really expect the same sound quality. Disc 1, however, sounds excellent; definitely among the best audience recordings of U2 from the 1980s. (An example of the difference in sound quality between Disc 1 and Disc 2 would be exactly like the differences between the sound quality of ROCK'S HOTTEST TICKET (Disc 1) and NEW HORIZON (Disc 2). Hope this makes sense.). It really sounds preposterous that Disc 2 would sound not as good as Disc 1, but that is the simple fact. The opening act, Red Rockers, appear with U2 on "40".

Sound Quality: Roughly half of the songs have great studio sound, while the other half are pretty bad. Tracks 10 and 17 are sspecially bad is 10 and 17, as are the 1978 demos. Comments: A great collection of different outtakes from the earlier years. Also interesting is the song "My Wild Irish Rose", which also contains a short interview with Bono. If you don't have any of the stuff on this CD, buy it. This might be the first-ever appearance of a studio version of "Jack In The Box". This is the original pressing on this label.

Belfast, Northern Ireland. Balmoral TV Studios. (19, 20): Unknown. (21, 22): Sun Studios and Graceland, the 'Rattle And Hum' outtakes videos. Sound Quality: Unknown. Mostly excellent. The Belfast concert is quite good. Comments: Track 1 could be a raw form of the US Mix of this song. The guitar is very heavily distorted. Some keyboard and percussion is included. Track 2 features a totally different keyboard part by Wally Badarou, which sounds strange but interesting. Tracks 3 and 4 are from U2's debut on the long running TV rock show. Tracks 5, 6, 8 are GREAT! I have never heard these songs in such an amazing stereo quality. The quality of Track 7 is slightly worse than tracks 5, 6, 8. It includes the English words instead of the "mystic" German part. Track 10 is the ONLY time this song has EVER been played live. Track 11 seems to be live, though no crowd noise can be heard, but Bono announces the song somehow. Track 12 is a horrible country song, but a nice unplugged performance of it. On tracks 13-18, the guitar sounds HORRIBLE! It is a nice performance otherwise. "Exit" is without the "G-L-O-R-I-A" part from the version on the movie 'Rattle And Hum'. They totally fuck up on 'Pride (In The Name Of Love)'. All I have to say about tracks 19 and 20 is. "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS???". The cover says, "L. Mullen solo. Aussie Radio, November 14th, 1989." This is really a weird thing! Does anyone know something about these? "Twist And Shout" sounds exactly like the Beatles' version, only very fast. Is Larry only drumming? Is he also singing? I don't know. Tracks 21 and 22 are from the 'Rattle And Hum' outtakes videos. These are raw versions with a Hammond organ and female background choir. "Can't Help Falling In Love" is performed by Bono WITHOUT his falsetto voice. Hope that helped! Nice collection. The cover features an early shot of the band imposed on black and white brick path with purple lettering. Bootleggers have been compiling U2 stuff of late with B-sides, duets, covers, dance mixes and a whole series of MELON remixes. FOUR WILD IRISH ROSES concentrates on broadcast, studio recordings and live rarities. The main attraction here are the four unreleased pre-Boy songs from 1978. They all carry with them the influences of the period, a hard rock beat, chunky guitar solos and a macho Bono voxing away. U2 had still to learn how to dramatize with punctuated guitars and quiet elegance. "The Dream Is Over," with The Edge indulging in an echoey style is worthy of release on a future box set. The '81 broadcast sessions, with Kid Jensen and the Old Grey Whistle Test might bore you with their faithful copy of "11 O'Clock Tick Tock" and "The Ocean." The alternate take of ""October" has a beautiful Wally Bararou keyboard sequence. Two Larry Mullen radio sessions covering "Twist And Shout" and "It's All Over Now," from Australian radio 1989, sound like karaoke to me. Awful. The Belfast concert has one highlight in a version of Neil Young's "Southern Man," all earthy and raw with great guitar from The Edge. Otherwise the show is pretty tame with U2 sticking close to the three-minute-limit song. The 1987 Sun Studio sessions, "Trip Through Your Wires / She's A Mystery To Me" and "Can't Help Falling In Love," have seen better days, in the sound department, elsewhere. FOUR WILD IRISH ROSES PART 1 had four takes of "Two Hearts Beat As One" while FOUR WILD IRISH ROSES PART 2 opens with yet another take. Those with a brave heart should pick up the TWO HEARTS BEAT AS ONE bootleg for the complete 13 takes in excellent sound quality. But otherwise, like this compilation, the music hardly moves you. This is the original pressing on this label.

Comments: The quality of this CD is very good. It's not the complete recording, but at last this show is somewhat more complete on CD. Deluxe color cover. This is taken from the vinyl bootlegs of the same source and pieced together to fit on a single CD. I don't know why they put three bonus tracks on this CD instead of more tracks from the show in Gothenburg. Missing tracks from the June 6, 1987, Gothenburg, Sweden show are: "Running To Stand Still," "Exit," "In God's Country," "Sunday Bloody Sunday," "Bad" and "40." You'd better keep waiting for a CD containing the complete show. Colored cover with yellow "U2" logo, "Free For All" printed in green and a lilac / red star. All pictures used for the 4-sided booklet were taken from the book "U2 Live - A Concert Documentary." The CD is printed in blue with red lettering. This is a European bootleg. The cover says "Made in Israel." This is the original pressing on this label.

Comments: This is not the May 13, 1983, Philadelphia, PA, Tower Theater show, as previously thought. Having just picked up THE COMPLETE BOSTON '83 TAPES, I realized that the so-called "GIG IN PHILLY" bootleg is actually from the same May 6, 1983, Boston, MA, Orpheum Theater show, edited down, partially resequenced, and with considerably inferior sound. I also found out that The Swingin' Pig shut down in January, and that the Boston show was one of the last ones they did before calling it quits. This is the original pressing on this label.

Out of Control 13. Twilight 14. "40" Source: Unknown. Sound Quality: Probably soundboard. It is an excellent recording. It's comparable to the live LP "Under A Blood Red Sky". But a few ticks and pops can be heard eventually. Comments: This disc may be a collection of the very best recordings made through the early-era shows, especially the version of "40". It is very good (and long, 6:30). The crowd just doesn't stop singing, "How long, to sing this song...". Then Larry makes an extra drum solo, and two minutes after, the music finally fades out. Unfortunately, the artwork is poor. There is only one photo on the cover of Bono's face. He's wearing a hat and standing in front of a microphone. Nice, but not enough. This CD is a good start for fans that don't have early shows recorded (like me when I bought it). Since the tracks were taken from other boots, though, big collectors may already have all of them. There are other boots containing the December 6, 1982 recordings. See also: AN ELECTRIC COMPANY ON STAGE, BBC CONCERT, and RED LIGHT. This is the original pressing on this label.

Comments: This bootleg nicely documents the final dates of the Lovetown Tour, featuring the last performance in part and a generous selection of bonus tracks from other dates. The worst-recorded track on this bootleg is easily "Hawkmoon 269", but it's an interesting performance, with The Edge playing a slide-guitar intro. The booklet is pretty minimal, but contains a listing of all the Lovetown Tour dates. It should be noted that this was the last concert U2 ever ended with "40". The whole set is available on ROTTERDAM, on the Golden Stars and Live Storm labels, and on Red Phantom's ALL I WANT IS U2. This is the original pressing on this label.

This CD is reprinted with a new sleeve. "Unauthorized Recordings" is not on the cover anymore. There are now "normal" photos on the cover without "Unauthorized" through it. This is a Japanese repressing. Sound is typical of other soundboard and FM broadcasts from around the same time. This concert was recorded by the BBC. This is the same as Karma Records' AN ELECTRIC COMPANY ON STAGE, which claims that the venue is Hammersmith Palais. A good investment, if you can find it, from the now-defunct Australian Applehouse family (Joker and Banana). This is the original pressing on this label.

Love Is Blindness Source: March 1, 1992. Miami, FL. Miami Arena. Sound Quality: Poor audience. Comments: Let me start by saying that I only bought this one because it was only $20 and my girlfriend went to this show! On some tracks, you can hear her friend screaming and boy was she surprised to hear it. The packaging is okay. A picture of Bono on the back and a Trabant on the front. It is a cardboard box with the CDs set back inside of it. A good show, but far inferior to many other indoor ones. The cover of this CD incorrectly lists this concert as being recorded at the March 15, 1992 concert at the Providence, RI Civic Center, so be extra careful when buying this. This is the original pressing on this label.

Disc 2 (9-14): Unknown. Sound Quality: Disc 1, Disc 2 (1-7): Good audience. Disc 2 (8-14): Varies considearably. Comments: The Tempe concert is the second concert of the Joshua Tree Tour, Bono had voice problems on the first concert but he sings well in this show. During "Where The Streets Have No Name", he shouts, "I can sing!" The version of "Bullet The Blue Sky" ends in a strange way, but the other songs are nicely played. There are a lot of covers in "Bad" (from The Rolling Stones, Lou Reed, etc.) and the bonus tracks are very interesting because you can find some rarely-performed songs like "Lucille" and "Mothers Of The Disappeared" (which is a good version). The cover lists "Sympathy for The Devil" as "Street-Fighting Man". This is the original pressing on this label.

The only special thing is that it's sound is excellent and very dynamic, even the older tracks. The CD comes in a jewel case and the front cover features a picture of a back street in a oriental country with Bono in front of it. Nothing is printed inside the sleeve. The CD itself is yellow with two big "U2" letters printed in black. Under the letters "U2" are the words "Greatest Hits '97." For the sound quality it's a good CD, but for the material here you'd better buy another one than this pirated CD. This is the original pressing on this label.

It features a 7 minute version of "All I Want Is You", which is the longest version I've ever heard. "Lemon" is also great. All-in-all, this is a great boot. The tracks, though not all from the same concert, are put edited together quite well and sound almost as if they all were from one source.

Unfortunately, this means that there are one or two really clear conversations heard in the audience. Aside from that, it's great. Comments: This is the only bootleg that I know of on which Bono sang "My Girl" after "One". The acoustic "All I Want Is You" sounds great too. If you've saw ZOO TV show, you know that "Bullet The Blue Sky" and "Running To Stand Still" are also great. "With Or Without You" has the 7th verse plus bits of "Love Will Tear Us Apart" from Joy Division. It`s the only performance that I know of (other than on "Rock's Hottest Ticket") with it and I love it. The packaging lists "Running To Stand Still" as "Bad".

Disc 2 (11-13): Good audience. Comments: U2 put on a good performance for Munich the night before 'Zooropa' was released in Europe. Although obviously an audience recording, the sound is surprisingly clear. Track 11 on Disc 2 is labeled as "vocals by Edge", but really he's just singing his usual backing vocals without Bono on lead. Track 12 on Disc 2 is not particularly interesting. It's hardly even a song, just an instrumental jam. Track 13 on Disc 2 is more interesting, starting off with a chiming, delay-laden riff, and visiting numerous moods before abruptly ending. The packaging is nicely done, with interesting graphics on the discs themselves, and a 12-page booklet with ZOO TV and 'Zooropa'-era photographs. This is the original pressing on this label.

George Bush Rap / Acrobat / Zoo Station Source: August 6, 1992. Hershey, PA. Hershey Stadium. Soundcheck. Sound Quality: Good audience. Recorded outside the stadium. Comments: This is a very interesting CD. While the sound is pretty bad, there is a lot of improvisation from U2 on this disc. The most noteworthy tracks on this disc are "Acrobat" and "So Cruel". This might even be the only disc with live versions of "Acrobat" on it, as U2 never performed it in concert, only at the Hershey soundchecks. It is worth a listen. U2 tries everything from reggae to country on this disc, and it's a real shame that this is an audience recording, rather than a soundboard or DAT. I wouldn't pay more than $20 for this disc, as I got mine for $8 at a record show, only after getting a copy on tape. I liked what I heard, and I figured that $8 would not kill me. Everyone should at least find a copy of this on tape, it's cool. This is the original pressing on this label. HITTING THE NOTE (R.E.M.) Manufacturer: Backstage Catalog: BKCD076 Matrix: BKCD 076 PHC 1408-B Barcode: 8 013133010589 (60:16) From: Lee Ellen (hansa@usa.net) 15. One [4:24] Source: 15. January 20, 1993. Washington, DC. Convention Center. Sound Quality: (15): Excellent soundboard. Comments: This is a great CD. One of my favorite boots. The sound is great and the track listing is very likable. This was made by the same company that made ZOOCOUSTIC. In fact, there is an ad for it along with some other CD's from various groups in the liner notes. The artwork is nice, except that on the inside sleeve Peter Buck and Mike Mills are mislabeled as each other (Whoops!). Bought this one in Utah and I haven't seen it since. I have been trying to get another copy of it but no one can order it for me. This is not a U2 bootleg, but rather an R.E.M. bootleg. Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. appear on Track 15, along with Michael Stipe on lead vocals, along with Peter Buck on acoustic guitar and Mike Mills on acoustic guitar and backing vocals. It is the infamous "Automatic Baby" performance of "One". This is the original pressing on this label.

Comments: The sound quality is poor during "Pop Muzik" and half of "Mofo," but after that it is fair to good throughout the rest of the show. However, audience noise (shouting, screaming, singing, etc.) is prevalent throughout. Almost all of "Pop Muzik" is included, only a bit of the beginning of "New York, London, Paris, Munich..." part is omitted. Between "I Will Follow" and "Even Better Than The Real Thing," Bono comments on how cool is was to see a giant "U2" on the side of the mountain (referring to the University Of Utah's altered "U" on a nearby mountain). On "Do You Feel Loved," Bono's voice sounds much better than in Las Vegas (April 25, 1997). "Staring At The Sun" is with the full band on the main stage (not acoustic). Before the start of "Daydream Believer," Edge proclaims, "Never before in the state of Utah!" The only three reasons I would encourage people to buy this CD are if you were at the show, you have no other boot with "Do You Feel Loved," or you find it at as good a price as I did. Due to various complaints that reviews from Danyel Ramelo (AKA POPclerk) were not impartial (since he manufactured them himself), all of the comments that he submitted for his CD-R bootlegs have been removed. If you own this CD-R set (like it or not), and have anything to add to this review, feel free to submit your additional comments and info needed on this bootleg.

Comments: A good show, but tracks are out of order ('U2 Live: A Concert Documentary', by Primm Jal de la Para has the full listing). Putting the full show out instead of this cut and paste job would have been wiser. Good for completists or someone who wants a flavor of a Joshua Tree Tour show.

Love Rescue Me Source: December 16, 1989. Dortmund, Germany. Westfalenhalle. Sound Quality: Very good to excellent audience. Comments: This CD contains U2's entire performance from December 16, 1989. Track 17 is simply Bono singing the words to "In The Midnight Hour", while the rest of the band continue playing "When Love Comes To Town". "Gloria" is played and indexed on the CD, despite not being listed on the cover. B.B. King appears on Tracks 15-18. Overall, this is a high-energy performance from both U2 and the audience. Bono best sums up the evening when saying, "Now that's what I call a positive riot!". This is the original pressing on this label.

Comments: This CD contains the complete show. The quality isn't quite that of the first Paradise Theater show of this tour (March 6, 1981, TWO SIDES LIVE), but it's a pretty good audience recording. The industry seems to have left Italy physically (this disc was manufactured in Taiwan, not Italy or Luxembourg). The insert is blank, but the covers are all correct for the time period. The sound quality gives a good feel of what it must have been like to hear U2 in the audience, something that soundboard recordings sometimes don't give. As you may know, it wasn't unusual for a European band to play true encores, as U2 did for "I Will Follow", "11 O'Clock Tick Tock" and "The Ocean". I think Carter Alan mentions this in his book. Alan also mentions that it wasn't until later that he found out that U2 had older songs they could have played (from the demo period), but that they wanted to concentrate on the new, better material. Anyway, as someone said when another show came about on disc for the first time 13 years later, it is very unusual to have a show of this quality come out on CD 15 years later.

The case it is shipped in already had the little teeth that hold the CDs in broken, so the CDs fell out when I opened the case. The track listing on the back cover is barely legible. For $30 you can find a much better bootleg of this show, trust me. On the plus side, when I realized how bad this bootleg was, Danyel Ramelo (AKA POPclerk) was glad to refund my $30. "Where The Streets Have No Name" is cut off.

A comparison between "All Along The Watchtower" on this disc, and the "finished" version on the 'Rattle And Hum' album, reveal that some post production took place. The 'Rattle And Hum' version has an edit out of the middle of the song, as well as an added guitar into. Bono actually spray painted the fountain during "Pride (In The Name Of Love)", not during "All Along The Watchtower" as was implied in the 'Rattle And Hum' film.

Comments: Of all the discs in this 4 set collection, these are probably the easiest songs to find because they are the most recent, but to buy them all on their own would cost a small fortune, as some of them are guest appearances on other CDs.

Sound Quality: Varies from not-so-good audience to good soundboard. Comments: The pictures range from the 'The Joshua Tree' to the 'Zooropa' era. This disc claims to be "the follow up of the widely acclaimed Vol. 1: U2 ZOOCOUSTIC (OCTO 148)". Oxygen rates the sound as 3 stars (out of 4). It claims to be all soundboard (see above). The quality isn't as good as DUETS but still better than ZOOCOUSTIC. I'll have to listen to these discs more closely if you want comments on the sound. A good collection of tracks from over the years. Most of these tracks can be found on many different boots, but this is a good disc to own for all you completists out there, or if you are looking for some rare performances of some terrific tracks! 73 minutes of music is quite a lot for the money, a good choice. The CD is made in Czech republic. This has also been sold as a 2CD version with an untitled CD as Disc 2. The untitled CD is actually DUETS. Seem as if Oxygen might be trying to dump off some extra copies of it. This bootleg covers shows from Rotterdam to Los Angeles to Hamburg to Australia and almost everywhere in between, this CD is only of average quality because of the lack of bass and over-enthusiastic treble on most of the tracks. It is listed as a soundboard recording but, as one would expect, about 70% of it is from audience recordings. There is a bunch of audience screaming and "hooting" on a lot of the tracks on this CD. On some tracks, Edge's guitar is too loud and at times, and irritatingly screeches. I guess this comes from the bootlegger standing too close to the speakers. One of two tracks that does make this a good buy (if you find it cheap) is the first track - "Stay (Faraway, So Close!)." Recorded in Leeds on August 14, 1993, it is of excellent quality and I prefer it to the original version on 'Zooropa.' The second interesting tracks is a very good acoustic version of "Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses." The CD sleeve also offers some good pictures of the band from the ZooTV Tour. Oxygen gives it 3/4 for quality but I beg to differ. I give it only 1.75/4. For being 73 (albeit poorly recorded) minutes of U2, it still make an interesting item for collectors and those who want to learn a couple of old Irish songs as sung by Larry and Bono.

Comments: This bootleg is quite similar to NEW HORIZON, but not as crystal clear as Red Phantom's ROCK'S HOTTEST TICKET, both of which were taped only 4 days after this one. The show is complete and features some surprises, like a performance of "Springhill Mining Disaster" (without interruption) and a woman coming on stage to talk about Amnesty International during "Pride (In The Name Of Love." It also has one of the best renditions of "With Or Without You" (including "Love Will Tear Us Apart") I've ever heard. This a great first-leg Joshua Tree Tour boot. Most of the tracks from the soundcheck can also be found on LUCILLE. Great show, great CD. Bono seems to talk a lot during this concert, offering some explanations for songs and a very moving speech in the middle of "Sunday Bloody Sunday" (see Pimm Jal de la Parra's 'U2 Live- A Concert Documentary' for a more complete run down of what Bono says). The show has some exceptional performances, such as "Bad." "Springhill Mining Disaster" is the second U2 performance of it ever. "The Unforgettable Fire" is the same one used in ULTRA RARE TRACKS VOL 3. The soundcheck they throw in at the end is a nice bonus, but the sound on those is really bad and you cannot understand Bono at all. Even if you have other Joshua Tree Tour shows on CD, this is really worth having. There was a great audience for U2 to work with that night. This bootleg is comparable to Red Phantom's masterpiece ROCK'S HOTTEST TICKET for sure. It is definitely better than NEW HORIZON in terms of its sharpness and crispness (or brightness of tone, sharpness of the drums, cymbals and vocals and just generally the kind of clarity and presence you get from a master generation tape that's done really well). THE JOSHUA TREE ON FIRE was mastered exceptionally well, and must be made from a master tape (unlike NEW HORIZON, which, oddly enough, is on this same label, Flashback). THE JOSHUA TREE ON FIRE is certainly a fantastic companion to ROCK'S HOTTEST TICKET, and one that seems to be readily available at the moment (unlike ROCK'S HOTTEST TICKET, which is now out of print. The only major difference between the two is that the sound on THE JOSHUA TREE ON FIRE is a bit more distant and higher on the treble end than ROCK'S HOTTEST TICKET. Otherwise, they're comparable in quality. This is easily one of the most crisp and detailed audience bootlegs of U2 in existence. The drum and cymbal clarity are awesome and Bono's voice and the band's performance are in top form. The bass may be a bit too low and the treble a little higher, but slight adjustments to the equalizer reveal no loss in quality if the bass volume is increased. The tone and detail remains consistent, unlike other boots. Jeff Shirkey (jcshirke@midway.uchicago.edu) and Lee Ellen (hansa@usa.net) contributed to this review.

Tracks 11 through 15 on Disc 3 labeled "Impromptu Tour". Worth every penny I paid. The sound quality on most of these tracks is amazing. This boxed set is basically a combination of ROCK'S HOTTEST TICKET (Chicago) and THE UNFORGETTABLE NIGHT (see those for their respective reviews) as well as parts of ROCK & ROLL STOP THE TRAFFIC and RAIN ON YOU. Check out all of these reviews to get an idea on this one. Overall, this bootleg arguably has the best sounding and performance of tours from the 'The Unforgettable Fire' and 'The Joshua Tree' eras. "October", "Gloria" and "40" have been omitted from the Chicago performance (most likely due to lack of disc space). Bono goes into "Do They Know It's Christmas?" during "40". The Chicago performance of "With Or Without You" includes the extra verse and a snippet of Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart". "Love Rescue Me" is the same performance as the one on the "Angel of Harlem" CD Single. Each CD is in its own jewel box. The booklets have the same cover but inside each one are different pictures of the band. The box cover shows the actual Joshua Tree in a purple and red atmospheric background (kind of like 'The Joshua Tree' meets 'The Unforgettable Fire'). My copy will not be for sale anytime soon. Not to be confused with KEEPING THE FAITH VOLUMES 1 & 2.

The Tower Theater. Sound Quality: (1-7): Good soundboard (8-14): Very good soundboard. Comments: The Denver tracks make a nice addition to the 'Under A Blood Red Sky' videocassette since the disc contains five tracks from the performance that are not featured on the video. The sound quality could have been better, but it's defiantly enjoyable. The Philadelphia show was originally recorded for a local radio station. These tracks sound great, its a pitty the disc doesn't cover the whole set. The date is listed as June 14th, but U2 only played the Tower Theater on May 13th and 14th.

"Stand By Me" has a lot of audience noise in it. This is a very long recording. THE LAST CONCERT is actually bits and pieces of DANCING ZOO TV. The CD is labeled November 14, 1992 at Anaheim, CA. I just got DANCING ZOO TV and it is the same EXACT show as THE LAST CONCERT. Just thought I'd let you all know before somebody else makes the same mistake.

Sound Quality: Excellent soundboard. Comments: Track 1 is only the end of the song, lasting only 44 seconds. This is an energetic performance, featuring rarely-heard live tracks like "With A Shout! (Jerusalem)" and "Rejoice." The set is missing "Gloria" (the opener), most of "Another Time, Another Place", "Stories For Boys" (after Track 8), and "Fire" (after Track 11). Track 14 fades out early. On the day of this performance, U2 had gone into a Long Island studio with producer Sandy Pearlman to begin recording a song that was never officially released. "Be There" may be that track. "Be There"is a bonus track on ZOOMERANG IN ADELAIDE. This is one of two of the original pressings on this label.

Vienna, Austria. Wiener Neustadt. (15, 16): August 23, 1997. London, England. Wembley Stadium. Sound Quality: Good audience. Comments: There is a persistent high-pitched hiss or squeak, but it doesn't detract too much from the sound. Generally speaking, it's a worthwhile investment. BUT, Disc 1 has a length of 74:55 and that doesn't agree (or at least their style of recording that length) with some CD players. Disc 1 skips a lot, meaning I've only listened to half of it. Disc 2 is well behaved and has no problems what so ever. The entire show is present, except they cut a bit of crowd noise out before the encore, which is slightly annoying. Disc 2, Track 8 was dedicated to Princess Diana, who had died earlier that summer. Disc 1, Track 12 is a karaoke version. The sleeve has pictures lifted form the 'Achtung Baby' and 'Zooropa' sleeves, and the front cover is of one of the promotional pictures for 'Pop.' Nowhere on the sleeve is there mention of where the main recording is from, though I am certain, without a doubt, that it is Paris. All told, this quirky bootleg is a bit of a risk to buy. This is the original pressing on this label.

Hippodrome De Vincennes. Sound Quality: This recording is a very good audience. Comments: Track 8 is mislabeled on sleeve as "Dirty Old Town". Track 9 is mislabeled as "All I Want is You". There is crowd noise evident throughout, such as audible clapping and talking, but the worst of it is heard during the breaks between songs. I would guess the person who taped this was near the front speakers because the music itself is recorded quite well. That is what makes it listenable, in spite of the crowd interference. In fact, I listen to this disc on my car stereo, which I can't say about most other bootlegs I have. All instruments and sound ranges are well-represented. The bass, which in my experience is usually muted or hard to distinguish, is clear and rich on this recording. The intro to "Zoo Station" is cut, so the song starts with Edge's opening riffs. Also cut are Mac Phisto's speeches and phone call. This is a fairly basic show in terms of the Zooropa Tour. The setlist is the usual, but the band is "on" and I would say it is a good performance. This would be a good candidate for a new collector looking for a representative show that sounds pretty good. I think it is worth it just to hear Bono have fun with the French language. Can you say "mangle"? This is the original pressing on this label. LEMON Manufacturer: Grapefruit Productions Catalog: GRA-006-B Matrix: GRA-006-B *803* Barcode: 7 666111 300625 (74:02) 1.

Sport Paleis Ahoy. (4-6, 9, 10, 14, 15): August 28,1993. Dublin, Ireland. Royal Dublin Society Showgrounds. Sound Quality: Very good soundboard. Comments: This is a nice collection from Australia. All of the tracks came from fantastic sources, but when they were pressed to disc somehow a bit of static was pressed as well. The transition from song to song is mastered well, with audience noise blending the tracks together. A good find, if you can find it cheap. This is the original pressing on this label.

"Until The End Of The World" is performed great, as is "Please." At the end of the "Lemon (Perfecto Mix) Intermission," you can hear Bono sing "Lemon breakdown, the lemon's broke.." It's not the best sound quality, but on a scale of 1-10, I'd give this one a "7." The cover has a picture of Bono and The Edge playing the guitar over top of a picture of a newspaper (The review in Norwegian newspapers the day after the concert). A good CD for a collector, and it's an enjoyable CD to listen to. Not too much audience noise here. Bono's got a clear voice, the drums sound good. Edge's guitar sounds a bit distant at times, but all-in-all a very good live performance, and a good live recording. This is the original pressing on this label. LIMITED EDITION INTERVIEW DISC Manufacturer: Sound and Media Catalog: SAM 7003 Matrix: S SAM 7003 Barcode: 9 781578 990085 Complete Show: NA Format: 1-CD Released: Unknown (54:50) From: Maryann J. Stump (stumpm@juno.com) From: Manderin Yusishen (umyusish@cc.umanitba.ca) 1. Two interviews Source: Interview 1: January 30, 1986. Dublin, Ireland. RTE: 'TV GaGa.' Interview 2: 1987. Unknown. Sound Quality: Interview 1: Excellent broadcast interview. Interview 2: Excellent broadcast interview. Very clear. Comments: The first of these two interviews is available on the video 'The Interview Sessions" and tape copies of the second are readily available as well, but this is still one of the rare interview discs that is worth the price. Larry is positively loquacious in the first interview, talking about starting the band and the Irish music scene. (Bono actually has to struggle at one point to get a word in.) The second interview is the semi-famous 1987 interview in which Bono and Edge talk about the decision not to make JT a double album. (This interview starts at the (29:10) mark). This CD was included with a "Limited Edition" CD-sized book by Mark (of "Out Of Control" fame) Taylor, allegedly a 120 page book, but the copy I bought was missing 25 pages. The book is published by Carlton Books (ISBN 1 85868 134 0). The first interview is also available on ALL I WANT IS... and both interviews are available on WORDS ABOUT MUSIC. This is not a bootleg. It is a "legitimate" interview CD, featuring U2. There is no music on this CD at all. The CD is a picture disc featuring a famous picture of Bono which is also featured on the cover of THE ULTIMATE 7" & 12" COLLECTION CDs. The cover of the CD has the same picture as the CD itself. This is the original pressing on this label.

Recorded from a vinyl source. Comments: First of all, the title LIVE AND DEMOS FROM 1978-1986 is incorrect. This is the entire show (with "Bad" repeated on Disc 2) for Los Angeles on November 18, 1987. I was confused at first because Bono mentions Oakland Coliseum during "Bad" (maybe he forgot where he was), but the references to the balloons that he let go during the song while saying, "Just let it go..." matched the reference to this show in the book "U2 Live: A Concert Documentary". Disc 2, Track 10 is performed with Bruce Springsteen on vocals and guitar and is from the September 25, 1987 show at JFK Stadium in Philadelphia, PA. This is the original pressing on this label.

This is recorded from vinyl source. Comments: This is the heavily booted show in Hammersmith, however, this one includes "11 O'Clock Tick Tock" after "A Celebration." To my knowledge, this is the only one which has "11 O'Clock Tick Tock " on it, and in the correct order. I think this may be the complete show. The sound quality is better than that of 1982 U.K. TOUR , this appears to have no audible pops or cracks. A great recording. There are MANY mislabeled tracks on this one. Track 7 is mislabeled "I Don't Believe Em." Don't pass it up. This was taken from a widely-bootlegged 1982 radio show, not from 1981 as the title implies. A great reminder that this band once mattered. The cover is an attractive 1-piece insert and tray card. The packaging has a color picture of the band playing on it from 1981 or 1982. I do not know about the availability of this one, but I have not seen it on any guides or listings. My guess is that it is kind of rare. This is the original pressing on this label.

Mysterious Ways 11. One 12. Rain Source: August 28, 1997. Leeds, England. Roundhay Park. Sound Quality: Good to very good audience. See comments. Comments: Color cover. Picture CDs. The sound is good for an audience recording, thanks in large part to the powerful PopMart sound system. Bono chats to the audience on various things, most notably former Beatle George Harrison's snotty comments about U2 that summer. Before "Even Better Than The Real Thing," Bono sarcastically tells the fans, "Good people of Yorkshire, you made a terrible mistake- George Harrison says you shouldn't be here. It's all big fucking hats and lemons and air." Bono lets loose a more powerful satiric tear at the ex-Beatle when he includes a snippet of Harrison's most well known Beatles' contribution, "Something," near the end of "Mysterious Ways." A marvelously improvised (or seemingly so) 2 minute version of "Rain" closes the show, probably as much for the Beatles as for the reported rain that night. Bono reminisces with the crowd throughout the night, telling them before "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For," "We've been coming here for a long time- going right back. Last time was the best- the time we spent here at Roundhay was the best concert of our tour, last year- last time." He then jokingly adds, "Of course, tonight is crap." He digs deeper back than Zooropa: "Going back to Tiffany's...Tiffany's with those fucking palm trees. We brought a few palm trees with us, you'll see a little later- and a 40 foot lemon, of course." Bono's jocularity recurs throughout the night, with statements like, "Anyway, I hope you like all this shit because...you paid for it." At the beginning of "Staring At The Sun," Bono begs Leeds not to laugh at his guitar playing. The highlights of the evening, beyond the George Harrison bashing are Bono's reflections during "Bullet the Blue Sky," when he asks, "How much do you want for your soul?" and the moment when Bono begins singing Led Zeppelin's "Whole Lotta Love" at the end of "Discotheque" and heavily distorted Edge plows ahead with him, playing the well-known riff. On Track 5, before the encore begins, the audiance begins spontaneously chanting, "How long to sing this song." In all, this is a good show- the band obviously have a good rapport with the audiance. The front cover attractively mimics the Who's classic 'Live At Leeds' album. The back cover has a faint picture of Bono taken from, I believe, a Spin or Rolling Stone article earlier in the year- April or May. The liner notes contain an essay poking fun at the band poking fun at themselves, as well as a complete tour itenerary containing some never performed concerts. The picture CDs are pink and blue (for "Miami," perhaps?) and both include the cartoon of Bono which was included in Rolling Stone's March, 1997 review of Pop. Not a bad bootleg. There is a bit too much clapping in the vicinity of the taper. Not very much bottom end. Certainly not the best recording or performance from the tour, LIVE AT LEEDS should satisfy the hard-core completist but very few others. The best thing about this set is the cover which is attractive only for its simplicity and novelty. But where The Who's 'Live At Leeds' was one of the best live performances ever recorded, this is not event the best U2 performance - not even close. Disc 1 is purple and white. Disc 2 is blue and white. The sound quality is good, but in many songs the crowd (with talking and hand clapping) overrules the recording equipment that was used. Inside the cover, you'll find the complete PopMart tour dates and the following review of the show from New Musical Express (NME) by Simon Williams called 'Notorious Big Show!' "...It isn't called PopMart any more. No sirree. For us Blighty bleeders who don't, like, comprehend the whole bally Yankee supermart/ market concept, U2 have craftily updated their whole touring promotion and, according to the legion of posters smeared across the derelict pubs and shops lining the route to Roundhay Park, rechristened it PopSport. Oh, and there's a bloody big football on the posters as well, just in case we haven't noticed just how adroitly they've transferred their cultural allegiances from the US of A to the U of, uh, K. So there's this huge lemon, right. And the yellow skin peels away to reveal a sort of vast silver citrus-shaped disco ball. And then the ball trundles along this catwalk into the audience and then it stops and the top half sort of slowly lifts off and U2 are standing there and this metal ladder appears and the band walk down and all this equipment has suddenly appeared at the end of the catwalk and the band sort of launch into 'Discotheque', like, in the middle of the crowd and it's just the start of the encores and, no ociffer, I'm pot nissed, it really, really did happen... ...As did many other things tonight, not all of them quite so jaw- droppingly amazing, but still pretty damn saucy. See, from the moment they dramatically appear stage-right and stride along an alleyway through the sodding audience to a final, carefree version of 'Rain' just over two hours later, U2 pretty much blow every conception of live performances and their alleged limitations out of the water. Light years ago, their cursed Red Rocks farrago (remember the white flags? The mullets? The manic bleat preaching?! Lawks!) catapulted the freaky foursome into the shameful realm of the rawk arena. Over a decade on, we have our own new generation of big stage bastardos, with Oasis, Blur, Radiohead and The Charlatans already booked into suddenly credible binocular-friendly venues before Crimbo. And rest assured that none of them will provide entertainment on a scale anywhere near as staggering as this. The plot is pretty simple: for the old crowd pleasers (see 'I Will Follow', '(Pride) In The Name Of Love', 'New Year's Day') the theme is stripped down and euphoric; for the later efforts (see the majority of the quite literally tune-unfriendly 'Pop' album) the spectacle is all and, more often than not, utterly spectacular. And here's the rub. U2 used to be more substance than style Now they're more style than substance and represent older men getting to grips with younger people's dance-dazzled sounds. Somewhere in the middle you'll find PopSport in all its awesome, gizmo-grinning glory. "George Harrison says you shouldn't be here!" yells Bono, a man who obviously snorts the tabloids. "It's all big fucking hats and lemons!" It is, too, courtesy of The Edge's camp cowboy attire and one large bright yellow bugger stage-left, but when U2's retort is the gentlest of touches of 'My Sweet Lord' at the close of 'Mysterious Ways' you realise just how much they're enjoying this whole supposedly hard-nosed corporate touring fandango. The highlights, then: Bono doing his traditional dance-with-a-girlie- from-the-audience act during a bionic 'Miami', and offering her a cigar; the cloud-bursting lasers for 'Bullet The Blue Sky'; the way in which Bono subverts all the Big Rock bollocks by dragging the crowd down into a 'Radio Ga Ga'-style mass clapalong; a stack of screamingly familiar songs which we haven't got time to detail because our minds are too busy being boggled by the cheeky, funky things in U2's life. And oh yeah, one other small-but-rather significant bit: somewhere in the middle of the set Bono and The Edge are at the far end of the catwalk with their acoustic guitars, duetting on 'Staring At The Sun'. Bono has already beamingly ordered the crowd not to laugh at his fretboard, uh, dexterity. In a few minutes The Edge will be striding solo on that same catwalk, bellowing 'Singing In The Rain'. Throughout the entire experience fans will be waving flowers. Dads will be shouting along. Geezers will be hugging each other. Mothers will be clapping. Small girls will be quivering. And small boys? Hey, we all know about small boys and their jiving, jumpers for goalposts, right? Yes. U2, then. Loaded, daft, dizzy, and, quite literally, Pop sports for all..." This is the original pressing on this label.

Comments: These short but complete sets are in broadcast quality of U2's major 1980's festival events. This is the exact same boot as TOO MUCH TALK, but this one adds "Stand By Me" with Bruce Springsteen. Great performances all around. This bootleg is a CD-R. I have come to theorize that this boot, ROCK 'N' ROLL AIN'T NOISE POLLUTION! and VEGAS STYLE, are a produced by the same producer because the cover art and the graphics are similar. Plus, all of them seem to be printed off an ink jet printer. Furthermore, I bought them all at the same store. Does anyone know? Scant liner notes and a paper insert with blue a border (UGH! Couldn't they find some pictures, even I have pictures of U2 at Live Aid!). U2 at its political height. The Live Aid set is great, but The end of a stunning "Bad" is cut out. It does include snippets of "Walk On The Wild Side." It ends a little over 12 minutes. This may be due to CDR mastering. This two-song performance cemented U2's reputation as one of the 80's biggest bands. Despite the liner notes claim of "short but complete sets," the US Festival material is only part of a full set that U2 performed. The "Closing Medley" section includes the DJ narrating Bono's climb to the top of the stage. (Supporting the liner notes claim of broadcast quality.) The Conspiracy Of Hope material is nice, with a lot of croud noise. The segue from "MLK" into "Pride (In the Name Of Love)" is not listed. This is a set with U2 in good form supporting another cause. They included a dark take on Bob Dylan's "Maggie's Farm," which includes lines of John Lennon's "Cold Turkey." The set closes with Bono singing the Beatles' "Help" and an all-star finale which features appearances by Lou Reed and Little Steven, among others. The bonus track is from the Joshua Tour's stop in Philadelphia. Bruce Springsteen joins U2 onstage, as Bono's arm was in a sling due to a separated shoulder. It has appeared on a few other releases, and was originally lifted from one of the 'Rattle And Hum' outtakes videos. Good quality. This is the original pressing on t his label.
