Thanks to danafletch in what must have been a true labour love
Indeed, recordings as Dana's recording "proper" is incomplete because of battery failure after Exit. But Dana completed the set by making an audience sourced matrix (no iem!) of, most notably, a recording made by JoeKickass and audio tracks of several videos.
Dana invited us to share this project here at u2start. I've decided to split it in two parts (similar as the 2 cd sets made by Dana) as to credit the matrix part and the single "rig" recording part separately. Mainly for administrative reasons, but I also think the Dana recording is significantly better than the matrix. Although incomplete and compromised by near-by chat, the recording itself is clear and has excellent dynamics.
Good enough for 3.5 stars, I'd say
The audience matrix is a bit bumpy, but it is a remarkable job that shows many, many hours of TLC...
I really appreciate the hard work to bring the U2 live recording fans & lovers this complete JT2017 Toronto document
Please read Dana's notes in the info files
It s a good show , but the sound is not ok. Bad and Seconds are cut.

Most noteworthy is the JEMS recording that was shared in super high-res a little 10 years ago. No need to put up the 24bit/96kHz files as CTU2Fan made an authorized 16/44.1 down-sample. I've shared these flacs "as is."
From the high-res wav capture I've made 16/48000 mp3's @224 (via Audition using triangular dither).
Furthermore, the MarkP recording is added, as well as the (in)famous bootleg "The Joshua Tree On Fire" (FLASHBACK). The latter was taken, I believe, from an earlier circulating transfer of the JEMS recording. I've added both in mp3 only - merely for archival purposes.
There is even a third source by Little Guy and transferred by MarkP. But for this 3 star recording I've only included the info file. I will add a sample later.
And last, but not least: the soundcheck is available in flac (and in mp3 with "The Joshua Tree On Fire" bootleg)
Hopefully I manage to update the first Cow palace show tomorrow
