For those who really understand the feeling, I love all U2, but this is so s Epic, impossible for young People to understand it, nothing personal, but for us, there was no internet, this was so mysterius, so analog.
Exactly my feelings. The myth that formed around my early heroes, such as U2, was so exciting! Saving money to buy a new LP or a new magazine with interviews or posters of them, was such a huge part of my youth. Today, music has lost so much of its appeal and value...
I remember collecting bootlegs of early U2 shows in the mid-80's, never imagining of a thing called the internet giving me the videos of these early shows. When they came to the US, I recall that they opened for the J.Geils band. When I saw them in 1984, the Waterboys was opening for them. Tickets were really cheap, too!
You are correct about them opening for J. Geils Band. A friend of mine went to see them (J. GEILS) in Tallahassee FL and came back with killer stories about that concert. About how no one could hardly understand what Bono was saying between songs because of his thick accent. But finally my friend deciphered that he was exhorting everyone in the somewhat sleepy crowd to GET UP and DANCE.
Raw and Uncompromising. The world and the UK/Ireland were ushering in the days of post-punk. This was U2's hardest hitting time of sound. The world would wait for what they would become... One of the greatest bands of all time.
Yah 💯 Promoting the October album & it's an Awwwwseme Album, this is when I first got into U2, start of 10th grade & my birthday is October 31st, Same as Larry's🎶🎵💙🩵👏👏👏
I could stomach them up to the WAR album, which was the only tour I saw them on. After that, their smug self-importance lost me. I never bought THE JOSHUA TREE, as the songs bored me. Having said that, "An Cat Dubh" is my favorite U2 song, which completely shows how U2 were completely influenced by Gang of Four, who were a much better band. In fact, Flea of Red Hot Chilli Peppers said, correctly, that the Edge completely aped Andy Gill's guitar style and atmosphere. Listen to Gang of Four's brillsnt 1979 debut, "ENTERTAINMENT" and prove me wrong...
Their live sound was so full of fire and huge and mystical… spiritual… the edges guitar was so beautiful raw and powerful Their songs were full of longing… melancholy… beautiful… God…
Recall seeing them at a college dance Early 85 or so- running videos. People just stopped dancing and started watching the video because they were so cool!
That guitar sound is just breathtaking and beautiful!!! He sounds so big and full! His notes are strong and full of life!!! The entire sound of that guitar just cannot be ignored. One of the most recognizable guitar sounds of all time!!! ❤️👍
I threw a brick and twilight on this are unreal ...u2 early stuff is as good today as all those moons ago ..rember going to see them age 16 Liverpool royal court 81/82 the power of the sound was incredible
My God I love them til the cows come home (what an absurd expression). Rejoice! Not a song I readily heard them play live very often but I just love how they’re just going for it. U2 we’re not going to be denied!!!
Deshalb höre ich U2! Seit 1981. Der erste Song, den ich bewusst wahrgenommen habe, war „Gloria“. Ich war damals ein kleiner Junge im Alter von 10 Jahren. Ich höre sie bis heute und war auf unzähligen Konzerten. Sie sind Teil meines Lebens. Danke dafür…
I bought this when it was first released and for me, it's never been bettered as an album. They've certainly written some great tracks since but this is THE album.
I was DJing my college's radio station the day we got U2's October. I was the first person to play any music off the album on the air. Gloria blew me away at the time.
@@Warrogue1 I was stunned at Bono's charisma. I was a veteran concert goes by that time, and I had never seen anything like it. When he sang "Give me your money" people rained it down from the balcony at the Palladium.
The 80s were simply the greatest decade. Everything was so pure, with such raw energy. How they won over the Germans is simply magic.. Bono has such an energy.. Insane!
Saw them 3 times on Zoo tv. Second row at LA sports arena and 2 nights in a row at dodger stadium. I was 20 I’m now 52. Music had lost its angst and passion. It has given itself over to mediocrity and repetition. U2s music is achingly beautiful, sonically mind bending and demands your attention.
I was 17 and two friends were playing a U2 tape. I almost fell over! Bono's voice is always much more than a voice - it's a musical instrument. Edge is from another planet!
I've played the early studio albums for decades, practicing conservative use in later years being more selective when I play them, not wanting to 'wear them out'. Even so, these live recordings from that era are new to me, giving these songs a very welcomed freshness!
They were amazing in the early days! Exciting and powerful! And Edge was like a Magician! I played guitar but couldn’t figure out his sound and style. It was so unique sounding! Back then they were great! Weaving Soundscapes. I was a fan until Rattle and Hum! Then they lost me. Now they bore me and I no longer care. 😮
@@MrMallorcaboy And they got greedy and arrogant, too. They were idealistic and hopeful back then. But now it’s all about self righteous preaching and cash! Bono invested 70 million in the FB IPO and made 500 million dollars in that rotten company! What a Sham! Bono cleaned up like a Bandit! Then they sent me their terrible album to my IPhone. I deleted it after hearing it. It was terrible! That pissed me off! They were so pushy and arrogant! No thanks!
Wow... what a gem! Still make me sad being just 13 years in 81 and not old enough to see these guys in full force post punk energy! great sound-great show!!!
Many thanks to you who posted this! U2 has been my favorite band since I was just a little girl. It’s a lifelong love affair… I saw them play in Las Vegas for my 39th birthday. I’ll never forget it! 🌹
The year after John Lennon died. A time of wondering where popular music would go after the end of the 70s. It was about this time but someone played the first cassette of U2 for me and told me they were “punk rock.” I was puzzled by the sounds …and love the chance to listen & see now what was going on! I could not have predicted the deep connection I would eventually experience many years later.
I remember wondering where did this sound come from? The Edge was mystical! I couldn’t decipher their influences. It wasn’t Punk. Sort of Gothic like the Cure kind of. But not the same. They were from Ireland so thought that’s unusual. Not from London. The only other Irish band I heard of was Big Country. Or were they Scottish? I’m wasn’t sure. But this was very Atmospheric music. I knew that much. Yet it wasn’t R&B based or typical R&R either. The Edge was their secret weapon carving out delicate melodies and thick chords and appregios. What a sound!
They all would be 19/20 years old, so friggen talented back then, you can now understand why they are now entering 5th decade as a band. They haven’t finished yet. They are doing a Rolling Stones. Edge only had 2 guitars back then a Gibson Explorer and a Strat. Today he plays with 21 different guitars in concerts.
Little did the audience know at the time that within 6 years this U2 would become the greatest Rock n Roll band the world has ever seen to this day…. Absolutely Brilliant 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
In Italy not many knew about U2 back in 1981, people fell in love with them in 1984/85. Maybe because Italy was not included in the World tour until 1985
Oh my God, since U2 has been my favorite band since 1983 I would have loved to have been to this show to discover them 2 years earlier! Damn! I think I have the show taped on cassette somewhere!
Real music, without Computer influence! So much better and pure human! Only People with a good voice made it big in the 80’s and before! The early U2 and the early 80’s sound are making a comeback in 2023/2030
Nice surprise for me that 'I Fall Down' and 'I Will Follow' were included this time, though! 😃 They'd omitted it when I recorded it off the TV onto VHS tape many moons ago.
Just my opinion, but this version and live performance kicks ass over anything u2 does now. The early stuff was way better with them playing the right tempo and key. I liked Bono's vocal style back then as it was straight and sincere, raw and less pretentious. So many great epic songs from the early albums! This is the energy that actually made me love this band at one time
Awesome show! I thought their young and raw energy had them playing super fast until I realised I was at 1.25x speed!! October is such a dark and rocking album - sounds great live. I discovered them when I herd New Year's Day on the radio in my sister's car as she went into a store. Gripped me and took hold from the start. Great band!
Love u2 old stuff nothing like it pure gold from late 70s till around 85 anything after that just doesn’t come close it all got far to commercial after that
i feel like modern bands stole from u2 to make generic music but at the time of the early 80s i can see how this was amazing, in context of the times, it feels like a brand new type of sound, its pretty amazing what they did at those times.
MY LETTER TO U2-1987 I saw you guys on the Joshua Tree tour in 1987 at MTSU-Middle Tennessee State University Saturday November 28th 1987. The Bodeans opened up for you. I remember at the time Larry had a crush on Wynonna Judd and she came out and sang a duo with Bono! I didn't have tickets to the show. A friend of mine drove us 3 hours from East Tennessee to see the show. We bought tickets at the box office for $18.50. We ended up 8th row center stage! I remember back then the band held back tickets for fans who were willing to make the drive and couldn't get tickets via phone or record store locations. Thanks again to Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton, and Larry Mullen Jr for making a special album and tour! I was 18 and had just graduated High School that year! All the Best! Gary Lagstrom
Quand je pense à ces daubes de Song of Innocence/Experience et que je vois ce concert ! La vieillesse est un naufrage également pour les Rock Bands. De toute façon, rien ne peut remplacer U2 dans le coeur de ma génération.
No drugs, no ODs, no fighting, no drunken concerts, no members quitting, no car accidents, no hotel thrashing.. just well behaved Irish boys making great music for 40 years.
Actually at this point in their career they wanted to sack Adam Clayton.
i think the drummer was caught with a pile of dope in his car 20 odd years ago
