The last band that you know the names of all the members

BONO: The Complete Solo Projects (5) Bono's solo work, collaborations, soundtrack contibutions, guest appearances, this and that collected over 5 generous discs. Hits and misses, but a worthy effort.

COVERING 'EM. Various audience recordings which varies in quality. Number of Dylan songs and a couple of appearances of Bono at some of Bob's gigs - about half the disc.

RAIN ON YOU Various live tracks and covers - I don't have good source info. The disc sounds great!!

BOSTON 24 (2) 24 tunes from various tour stops in Boston. All good to excellent quality.

FOUR WILD IRISH ROSES. Various demos and sessions from 1978 to 1981. All in excellent sound, some sounding not very much different than the released material.

ANOTHER TIME, ANOTHER PLACE. Live compilation from the 1981 tour. They were a bunch of raw, hard charging rock and rollers in their youth. Soundboard quality.

A LATE NIGHT PLAY IN BOSTON. March 6, 1981, Boston, Massachusetts. I was late to this band and I can see why. Decent recording, but they had a way to go.

MARCH 17, 1982. The Ritz, New York City. From the stage chat, it sounds like it was their 2nd time in the City. A band on the rise!

JANUARY 9, 1990 (2) Rotterdam, Netherlands. A good example of a not so great audience taping that captures the warmth and passion of a live concert. However, it someone ran it's course, by the middle of disc 2.

CHILE POP. NOVEMBER 2, 1998 (2) Santiago, Chile. While noone's favorite album, this band is so good that they can take it on the wrong and still pull off a fine show.

JUNE 2, 2001 (2)  Albany.  A nice audience/IEM matrix.  Delight.

JUNE 6, 2001 . Boston, Massachusetts. Middling audience taping of a band at or near it's peak. I saw this show and the boot doesn't do the night justice.

CLINTON LIBRARY/BROOKLYN BRIDGE PERFORMANCES 2004. 3 Tunes + praise for Bill and then the 4 bit perfect rock tunes announcing the tour at the Brooklyn Bridge. It's a gas.

May 24, 2005 (2) Boston, Massachusetts. An enjoyable show, but just a decent taping. I attended this one so it has to be on my shelf.

SEPTEMVBER 17, 2005 (2) Toronto, Canada.  Another Vertigo soundboard.

OCTOBER 4, 2005 (2) Boston, Massachusetts. While certainly another audience taping this one has a bit more warmth and feel that the other one. Captured all of the magic I saw.

OCTOBER 17, 2005 (2) Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Another superlative show, great listening -- they are magical, man. Bruce Springsteen droops by to help out on "People Get Ready."

NO LINE ON HORIZON. PROMOTIONAL TOUR: FEBRUARY/MARCH 2009 (2) Collection of various TV shows and other gigs done to promote the album's release. All in crystal clear sound. You get about a dozen versions of "Boots" a few more than I need.

JUNE 30, 2009 (2) Barcelona, Spain. Opening show of the 360 Tour. Well, it's only an acceptable taping. Bono, as always, eager to please seems to always find a way to do so. Hope they keep "Angel of Harlem" in the setlist each night. A few too many "Horizon" tunes though they seem to sound better live than on the overcooked album.

JULY 7, 2009 (2) Milan, Italy. Very good audience taping, memo to Bono, you can change the setlist and drop a couple of "Horizon" tunes. With that said, it's thoroughly enjoyable.

JULY 24, 2009 (2) Dublin, Ireland. Hometown gig, soundboard. Great stuff.

WORLD AIDS DAY. December 1, 2014. Times Square, New York City. The 4 song set with guest vocalists Chris Martin & Bruce Springsteen as Bono was sidelined with his bike injury. Fun.

MAY 28, 2015 (2) West Hollywood, California. The boys at the Roxy doing a little club gig. Fun stuff.

JULY 18, 2015 (2) New York City. Nice Innocence & Experience show.
