Great! U2 before their rise to fame. Great Music!

The interviews are candid. The music is priceless. The band is U2 before they were the megaband they are today.

The video is good quality, well edited and the sound mixing is done well, especially considering the fact that music is intertwined with voice throughout.

The albums covered on this are, of course, the resulting "Rattle and Hum", "The Joshua Tree", and all of their previous work.

You can see what existed in Bono, the humanitarian, before he was nominated for a Nobel Prize for his work in charity and relief work around the world.

The video shows the 4 guys, Bono (aka Paul Hewson), the Edge (aka Dave Evans), Adam Clayton and Larry Mullin Jr. being four guys from Ireland on a tour of the U.S. The coolest thing about this video is how it shows U2's discovery of American music; specifically the blues and jazz.

Best song on the video is by far "When love comes to town" with THE B.B. King.

The entire video is fantastic and I have watched it literally hundreds of times.Read full review...

Must own DVD for U2 fans

Must own DVD for U2 fans. Better than I remember when I saw in theaters. Must own this disc if your an original U2 fan. I was worried getting a "DVD" the music would not sound as good as a Blu-ray, but I was blown away at the quality. I consider myself a bit of a snob in music quality, the DVD was excellent.

U2 at the apex of their powers.

A documentary that combines concert footage, historical footage, and personal footage of one of the most important bands of the 21st century. Interspersed is black and white footage which gives it a gritty feel. The interplay with BB King is priceless, as is the Memphis segment. The Memphis segment inspired me to make a pigrimage there to Graceland, the Sun studio, Stax museum, and Royal studio where Hi Records and Al Green made so much timeless music. I guess this is my longl-winded way of saying that this DVD is too inexpensive to not have it in your collection if you're a fan of almost any genre of music.Read full review...

Captivating concert footage!

This video has great concert footage as well as behind the scenes commentary from the band. It brought me back to my college days when I was obsessed with U2!
