Comments:
This is U2's first show in Japan. Not to bad sounding either al be it a little too slow. Another example of the everything on CD 1 school type of bootleg, but in this case it's made up for very generously with an almost complete October show as bonus. I've been told that this show could be the 03-11-81 Hamburg Fabrik show. A shortened October show with no encore but 3 versions of I will follow as Bono twice stops the show to disencourage some rowdy audiencemembers that he does not tolerate their practices. The final tracks are from an unknown show where Bono sings as a guest. The first tracks is a bluesrocker while the second is Bob Dylan's Blowin' in the wind. Maybe it was Bob Dylan tribute day that day. It's way of speed though, with Bono sounding like a chipmunk.
