Source:
(1-12): June 8, 1981. Geleen, Holland. Sportpark. Pinkpop Festival.
(13-16): May 27, 1981. New Haven, CT. Toad's Place.

Sound Quality:
(1-12): Very good broadcast (soundboard).
(13-16): Good audience. Recorded too fast.

Comments:
The cover is an attractive 4-panel insert and 2-sided tray card. The Pinkpop material is a very good broadcast, but a tad harsh on the high end. The Toad's Place material is a good audience recording that sounds like it plays too fast. Excellent recording of one of U2's first "big shows"! The avid fan gets goosebumps to hear Bono proclaim "We are U2, have you heard of us?" Just before an awesome performance of "I Will Follow." Also includes the first live performance of "Fire." Dave Marshak contributed to this review.
This is the original pressing on this label.
