| Tech Note | Comments: The Chicago performance is also available (in an edited form) on THE FLAME AND THE FIRE, and PEACE UNDER A CHICAGO SKY. The cover features pictures of Bono, also used on both CDs. The booklet includes tour dates and a few colored photos. This is a great show from the Unforgettable Fire tour. The sound is great and it's a strong show. This is before the band got "mega huge." "I Will Follow" finds Bono talking to a cameraman present from the local news. "Electric Co." includes a verse of "Amazing Grace." "Bad" is strong and includes snippets of "Ruby Tuesday" and "Sympathy For The Devil," both by the Rolling Stones. It's performances like this that built U2's worldwide fame. The opening act, Red Rockers, appear with U2 on "40". A great show. The bonus tracks are available in a more complete form on PARTY AT TIFFANY. Believe it or not, Disc 2 doesn't sound as good as Disc 1. This could be due to the manufacturer paying less attention to mastering Disc 2. This is ironic because Disc 2 is just a continuation of the same concert, so one would really expect the same sound quality. Disc 1, however, sounds excellent; definitely among the best audience recordings of U2 from the 1980s. (An example of the difference in sound quality between Disc 1 and Disc 2 would be exactly like the differences between the sound quality of ROCK'S HOTTEST TICKET (Disc 1) and NEW HORIZON (Disc 2). Hope this makes sense.). It really sounds preposterous that Disc 2 would sound not as good as Disc 1, but that is the simple fact. The opening act, Red Rockers, appear with U2 on "40". |
