Madison Square Garden, New York, NY
Source -Unknown Digital Generation-
Media SHN   2 discs
Notes This is a truly amazing audience recording which was transferred from the master cassette to DAT to CDR.
Audience noise is kept entirely in the background and adds to the feel of the recording.
This bootlegs sounds so clear that it rivals the "Rattle and Hum Outtakes" even though the latter is a soundboard recording!
Disc 2, Track 9 features The New Voices of Freedom, a gospel choir from New York whom the band heard singing "ISHFWILF"
in a church while walking in the city. Also included is a rare rendition of "Spanish Eyes".

There are a few breaks in the recording.
The keyboard intro to "MLK" can be heard at the end of Disc 1, Track 4.
Before Bono begins to sing, there are approximately 10 seconds of dead air.
As Disc 1, Track 5 begins, Bono is singing "...be realized. If the thundercloud...".
Also, there is a brief cut between "In God's Country" and "Sunday Bloody Sunday" which sacrifices Larry's first few drumbeats to the SBS intro.
