Tech Notes
All tracks start and end abrubtly. This is not due to bad editing but due to the introductions/links on the TV show itself.
Recorded for the BBC youth TV show "Something Else" which ran for only 3 months or so.

Source Info
This is from a low generation copy of the show.
The person I traded with also provided me this show in a VERY good video copy so it was either 1st or second generation.
Unfortunately the video is something no longer have and it is to my lasting regret as this was the first time I saw U2 on TV.
It made a huge impression.

If anyone has a copy of the video then I would dearly love to have it again. For sentimental reasons.
Contact DBMTB in the ElevaSHN forum at Yahoo Groups.

I distinctly remember that the theme of the show that week was spirituality in music. (See the choice of tracks)

I hope that someone can one day come up with a better version.

A tiny amount of hiss was removed. Other than that, the tracks are in the form in which I found them.
All BBC TV broadcasts were on AM frequencies until the mid nineties.
The recording may well, therefore have been mastered for mono broadcasting so I have not tampered with it.
The use of right and left channels is only to enable SHN encoding. Both channels are the same.
