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.

Comments : An interesting collection of acoustic performances from various locations throughout the ZOO TV and Zooropa Tours. Track 2 performed with half of ABBA. Track 8 is with Daniel Lanois. Track 14 is performed with Axl Rose, although it's a bad recording of an even worse performance. This is the original pressing on this label. ADAM WE MISS YOU!

Mysterious Ways 11. One Source: May 22, 1997. Pittsburgh, PA. Three Rivers Stadium. Sound Quality: Very good audience recording. See below. Comments: Color cover. Track 2 is not listed on the cover. 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.

Can't Help Falling In Love Source: November 16, 1993. Adelaide, Australia. Football Park. Sound Quality: Very good soundboard. Comments: This is a good companion to the Sydney 1993 soundboard show. 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.
