  1. I'm like a year late, but I've been compiling my own version of a Super Deluxe version of Achtung Baby for it's 30th anniversary. I expanded it to about 12 discs worth of era-related material. It was fun enough organizing the songs and listening back this way that I started readying their own art for each disc. Before I commit to these covers, wanted to know what the community thought. Hit me with your harshest feedback for these.

    So the question is: Do you guys think I'm missing anything?
  6. what is Hansa Town on disc7?
  7. It's an instrumental from the Achtung sessions. Sounds like a riff that later got folded into Tryin' to Throw Your Arms Around The World. I honestly can't remember where I sourced it from. Thought it was from the Super Deluxe but it doesn't seem like it appears there.
  8. yeah, it threw me off that it wasn't included on the Hansa sessions disc
  9. Bottoms, why wasn’t it on the 20 years uber deluxe?
    Great zoostation instrumental remix.

    Numb (in cold blood) (ultra hot razor crew remix) could be on the ‘mehr remixes’



    And there’s should be tons of demo’s from the zooropa sessions like the early versions for pop and songs/ versions we are dying to hear

    Wow, that Numb remix is great. I've never heard it before. Gonna have to seek it out somewhere. And I agree, I NEED to hear the Zooropa sessions. Based on the recording process, I imagine there's a lot of interesting experiments that would be revelatory to hear.

    I'm also looking for the versions of One and a few other tracks that were found on the Achtung Baby Solicitation Kit. If anyone has a high quality download of that still I would love to have it.
  11. The Orange Fruitleg really got in my way today. I went looking and it would have gone a lot quicker had I known that remix is actually just The Perfecto Remix of Numb.

    Thanks for sharing it

    Why do you prefer to go for an Outside Broadcast show and not a 2nd leg one?
