Comments:
This concert was recorded during the Amnesty International Tour. The CD contains a long version of "Bad" (nearly 13 minutes) with "Candle In The Wind" and "Biko" at the end sung two times by Bono, but the drawback is that this track was artificially lengthened by someone splicing the centre section back onto the end of the song. The Edge plays a very aggressive guitar during "Pride (In The Name Of Love)," with an unusual amount of "rock" distortion. "Sunday Bloody Sunday" is played very softly and slowly. Some mistakes on the cover: "Sunday Bloody Sunday" is written by U2 and not by Lennon/Ono, "Bad" is not by Castor/Pruitt/Thomas/Gibson. Track 8 is mentioned as "Not So Far Away (Sun City)" instead of "Sun City". The booklet is minimal with no information concerning the tour. This is a good document of one of the few shows U2 performed in 1986. Although the sound isn't as crisp as a soundboard, all the instruments come through very well. Crowd noise, though present, is manageable and not distracting. There's also quite a few covers here, including a fairly rare take on "Sun City."
