Performance

This is hands down,one of the top shows from the UF tour.Alot of the bootlegs from this tour do not sound good.I saw the band 5 times in 1985,but my shows just dont have the sound to go along with the performance.You have both here.The UF songs sound great.Wire is one of my favorite tunes by the band,and you have a great version here.Alot of fire,energy and passion at this show.This is a must have show, if you like this period of the band.I love this one.

Sound

This by todays standards, this is a 4.Considering alot of bootlegs from this tour are rated the same (4), as this one,I have to give this bootleg a better rating.The sound is very clear.No loud yells over the band.Adams bass is very full.Listen to Knockin On Heavens Door.Bono is clear as is the rest of the band.
Recording: "Four At Four" - 4 stars

Audience

Great.40 ends and they keep singing as the bootleg fades out.Great audience.

Overall

Brilliant show.I have been listening to alot of UF bootlegs this week.I keep going back to this show.The performance is great,and the sound is very good.The UF songs and 40 (9 min) are standouts.If you want a great sounding (full show) and great performance bootleg from this tour,grab this and Bologna 02.05.85.IMO those 2 are the standouts for this tour.
