ORIGINAL NOTES:
A few weeks ago I downloaded this concert from here:
[= u2torrents - RossMan transfer (editor)]. The description
sounded very promising (The sound is so clear that this
may well be a soundboard recording. There is absolutely
no crowd noise between tracks also supports the
soundboard theory.) but when I listened to it, it was not
really equal to my expectations.
So I had to browse for a long time to find my old cassette
and when I listened back to it I realised that my version
was really sticking to this description and sounded a lot
more powerful and nice soundwise. So, why not, here
it is a transfer from my tape which is really an upgrade
from the previous seed.
My tape isn't sourced from any CDR (when I traded this
one in 1987 there ain't any boot CD!).
This is not the complete show. Out of Control was played
right after Twilight but the taper must have stopped his
device before, that's why we do not have this last track
available.
This is the show where Bono stops the band during Gloria
and had to start again 3 times during I Will Follow because
some of the audience were not very happy with the music.
I would be curious to hear what they are thinking today,
when they were throwing objects onstage to one one the
biggest rock act since the last 30 years.
Not good music tastes for sure...
Enjoy!
