Comments

Brilliant recording on Bono's 23rd birthday. This item features excellent crispness, with a solid capture of the instruments. Music and vocals come through pretty clear and powerful, with minimal audience interference. Sound quality is superb, and the show is fantastic.

Taper can be heard adjusting the recording levels during Out of Control, and singing 'Happy Birthday' to Bono before "40".
