Under a Blood Red Sky, again
no matter when you began your own love of the greatest band in the world, the time is nigh to snag a copy of this amazing show.
having just listened to NPR’s All Songs Considered podcast entitled: “The 1980s: Were They Really That Bad?” (to which Boilen emphatically answered “yes!”) I let out a little hallelujah hum for U2’s stand-out work - from 1983.
can this really be 25 years old? doesn’t sound like it (could be the 5.1 mix).
the dual CD/DVD set releases on Sept 30, with pre-ordering available on several sites. bestbuy.com offered the best price (after factoring in tax & S/H). here’s the blurb from Amazon:
The remastered Under a Blood Red Sky album was originally released in November 1983, and consists of live recordings from three shows on the band’s War Tour through Europe and America. Recorded at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado on 5th June 1983, Live at Red Rocks will be available for the first time on DVD, and will include 5 previously unreleased songs, a director’s commentary, digitally re-graded pictures and a 5.1 mix.
