The Edge has always had a beautiful, warm, rich, dynamic, ethereal quality to his sound. What brilliant TONE! No one plays or sounds like him, or like the band themselves. So glad I've been there since the beginning listening to the changes. The old stuff is still the best.
That sense of urgency in their early music (Boy - War) just makes me smile. I loved just about everything they did between Boy and Pop, but everything from The Unforgettable Fire and onward was a lot more produced. Produced well, and they produced some of the best songs of the 80s and 90s. But there is something to be said for raw energy.
Tiny Tim's outside and he's eating candy mice, and the plastic dolly laughs while she eats her curried rice, I hear the Martian crying and I know it's time to see a fish, hear the volleyball named Wilson singing and he's cooking some cotton candy in a dish..

There is more to this concert the version I had was horrible it had been copied after copy after copy on lp speed if you speak VCR you know the most slowest worst speed for replay ever.

Early U2...the best U2
Indeed! After War everything went downhill.
Best Version I ever heard!
The driving bass of Clayton and the amazing playing of Larry are just so good and underrated
Love me some early U2
Real fing band, beautiful ❤

😢 my youth!!! ❤
adam clyaton's bassline in the eraly days of u2 was sounds something brilliant...
amazing song --- if that guitar riff starting at 4:15 doesn't get you pumped, nothing will - they should do it present day
This song, since the very first day I heard it , has always given me the chills.
when im playing along with my bass i cant help but head for the G to pick up the riff --- every time
The bass sounds amazing in that show. Rarely heard it mixed so well and sound so punchy.
classic U2 moments the best ever
Wow...U2 at the 80's...awesome concert...great sound and image...Adam 's bass sounds amazing!❤❤🎵🎶🎤🎸🥁
Quel bonheur ! Je les aime de plus en plus... Toujours dans mon esprit quand j'en ai besoin 😉
11 O Clock Tick Tock still sounds vital. Could have been recorded today. Amazing.
Indeed. Deserves a new rendition with back vocals and stuff...
They took the torch where Joy Division left it in may 1980 and brought it to fantastic heights.
edge's gear : gibson explorer 76', 2 deluxe memory man pedals and VOX ac30 TB! what a sound!!
Bono so young, nice memory, Séb!
Great passion from Both Audience and Band, And it sounded great to, Magic.
The times when one could be in the front stage touching the musiciens without being punched by the "gorillas" protecting the stars on stage.
They're so precious
Magnifici
incredible..I love you Bono, I love U2
incredible sound
Quando gli U2 erano gli U2
cool footage!
Esto es tan tierno. Apenas unas criaturas.OMG
the edge is the Eienstien of his generation
Grandi
QUE DEL CARAJO ME QUEDE DE UNA SOLA PIEZA QUE JOYA ZIGBEUNV QUE JOYA...
Young bono was so cute and hansome, i cant stand

headband, fur jacket...not typical look for bono then (well or ever). He was clearly trying something..... That he shoudn't have
Golly, this is early isn't it, they look like kids just out of school still.

Was Adam even going through a bass amp back then? He may as well have been playing a Rickenbacker (I think he had one.)
bono was possed way back,even during this song
