Comments

Pretty good recording of the first (and only) U2 concert in Hungary. Sound is really good, although a bit muddy. Music comes through in a powerful way, so clarity is quite good. It lacks some more cleanness overall. Audience noise is really audible, but not overwhelming. A slight hiss remains during the quieter parts of the concert.

There is an edit just after New Year's Day, cutting off only crowd noise. At 0:17 during Where the Streets Have No Name, sound becomes somewhat cleaner, with better crispness, bordering with "excellent audience" rating. Pride is complete in this source. After Pride, sound quality is back to normal, so this makes me think that Streets and Pride can be from another source or even another show, I don't know.

A man onstage translates into hungarian MacPhisto's speech.
