Comments

A very raw recording of another energetic concert of The Unforgettable Fire Tour. Sound is somewhat harsh and unpolished, with tiny distant vocals. Anyway, all instruments are well audible. From MLK to the end of the concert, sound is much better. Issues have been perfectly described by Justin Cook (webmaster of Justin CDR Trading Page) as follows:

The first five tracks of this bootleg are plagued by a very annoying wave-like sound that is likely the result of degradation of the source tape. The sound stops at the end of Edge's organ intro to "MLK". At this point the recording becomes clearer, with an overall sound that is pretty strong despite having a fairly distant quality.  Audience noise is a bit of a disturbance, with individual voices near the taper audible in the background on occasion. These voices include a couple of jokers who seem to guess wrong each time Bono introduces another song.  There are sloppy edits between several tracks: "Wire" and "Sunday Bloody Sunday", "Bad" and "October", "Pride" and "Knockin' On Heaven's Door".

Just to mention that 11 O'Clock contains a skip at 03:06 that cuts off some seconds. A guy from the crowd joins the band onstage to play along during Knockin' on Heaven's Door.
