ENI found this new raritie ever seen before for me at least and not listed in u2wanderer or other similar sites
According to http://u2theearlydayz.com/index.php?...en-Commadments
When revolver split, Kevin, Phil & Pete all had songs they wanted to record, The Reasons were a one off Dublin super group brought together just for the studio recording of 3 songs.
The Teen Commandments became the "live" version of the "Reasons".
Later all 3 tracks would be released on vinyl under the Teen Commandments name.
The Reasons recorded 3 tracks at the Lombard Studio in Dublin in the summer of '79.
The line ups for the three tracks were;
My Baby Left Me
Phil Byrne Vocals
The Edge Guitar
Kevin Helly Bass, Acoustic Guitar & Backing Vocals
Dave Moloney Drums
Gaby Smith Keyboards & Wurlitzer
Written by Phil & Kevin
Private World

Pete Holidai Guitar & Backing Vocals
Billy Morley Guitar

Somethin' Better Than Nothing

Thanks to Kevin Helly for the above information & the demo recordings
Robbie Moloney "What did the edge play, someone trying to convince me that it was Bass"?
Philip Byrne "Nope guitar all the way, the solo on 'Something's took about eight hours! LOL"
Robbie Moloney "It was only in the studio, the touring Band was Phil,
Dave a guitarist called Eamonn and a black bass player who I never heard of again!"
I captured the streaming audio through IE cache.
What do you think about this?
For me personally the guitar in My baby left me sound like Edge's guitar
