U2/NY,USA 10.25.2001 Complete Soundboard Edition

The "ELEVATION Tour" stunned the world with a century-old spectacle. This superb live album captures the moment. This work captures the "October 25, 2001 New York City performance," recorded at the iconic Madison Square Garden with a phenomenal audience. It's a stereo soundboard recording. The introduction seems a little abrupt, but I'll explain why later. First, let's look at the show's position. The "ALL THAT YOU CAN'T LEAVE BEHIND" era was the band's heyday, sweeping the Grammy Awards. However, perhaps due to the popularity of their two official video releases, "ELEVATION 2001: LIVE FROM BOSTON" and "U2 GO HOME: LIVE FROM SLANE CASTLE, IRELAND," the band hasn't had many recordings available. This new masterpiece will soothe that thirst. First, let's take a bird's-eye view of the activities at the time and examine its position. February 7: London performance "ELEVATION Tour" March 24 - June 22: North America #1 (50 performances) ← *Official ELEVATION 2001 July 6 - August 8: Europe (20 performances) ← *COLOGNE 2001 August 11 - September 1: UK (12 performances) ← *Official U2 GO HOME October 10 - December 2: North America #2 (30 performances) ← ★Here★ A completely official, superb soundboard This is the complete picture of the "ELEVATION Tour." In addition to the two official videos, the classic album "COLOGNE 2001 1ST NIGHT: IEM RECORDING" reigns supreme, but this MSG performance is a record of "North America #2," which is different from any of them. This was the eighth performance of the tour. The "ELEVATION Tour" included two MSG performances in June and three in October, with this being the second of the two. This work, which conveys such a show, is a completely official, top-quality product. It was originally provided as an "audience recording" by an overseas U2 researcher, but no matter how you listen to it, it's a soundboard. And it's superb. After all, even listening to the genuine official works "ELEVATION 2001" and "U2 GO HOME" back to back feels natural. The sound quality is so high-quality that you'll want to repeatedly check whether you're playing the official CD by mistake. The sound quality was so good that I once again asked the researcher, "Is it actually a soundboard?" or "Is it some kind of official sound source?" The conclusion was, "It was a soundboard after all." It seems that a simple misunderstanding led to information being mixed up with the "audience." It's a rather disappointing outcome, but all of this was caused by the superb sound. An absolute album that completes the collection alongside the official work. Even though it has such a completely official sound, it is definitely not an official live performance. Not only the performance but also the set list is completely different, so this is for sure. Let's check out the set contents here. All That You Can't Leave Behind (6 songs), Elevation, Beautiful Day, Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of, Kite, New York (*), Walk On, and others (13 songs). WAR: New Year's Day (★), Sunday Bloody Sunday. ?: Bad (*), Pride (In The Name Of Love) (★). Joshua Tree: Where the Streets Have No Name, I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For (★*), Bullet The Blue Sky. Achtung Baby: Until The End Of The World, One (★). Others: I Will Follow (*), Angel Of Harlem (★), Stay (Faraway, So Close!) (*), What's Going On (★*). *Note: The "★" mark indicates the official release "ELEVATION 2001: LIVE FROM BOSTON," and the "*" mark indicates "U2 Songs not heard on "GO HOME: LIVE FROM SLANE CASTLE, IRELAND"... ...and so on. Speaking of "North America #1," the official "ELEVATION 2001" is, of course, the representative work, while "Europe" has the superb IEM "COLOGNE 2001," and "UK" has the official "U2 GO HOME." This work allows you to enjoy a full show from "North America #2," which is different from any of those. This soundboard album, alongside the classic "COLOGNE 2001 1ST NIGHT" and other official masterpieces, completes the "ELEVATION Tour" collection. This is a stereo soundboard recording of the "October 25, 2001 Madison Square Garden performance." The master was provided by an overseas U2 researcher, and it is a top-notch product that is unquestionably "fully official." It is comparable to the official works "ELEVATION 2001" and "U2 GO HOME," and the repertoire that cannot be heard in either work is also delicious.
