As was often the case when the band played the same venue for several nights in a row, the setlist was shuffled a bit for this performance. The concert began with "Stand By Me" which is joined in progress on this recording. "Where the Streets Have No Name" was moved from the opening slot to late in the setlist. Furthermore, a few surprises are included, such as "The Electric Co." and "Springhill Mining Disaster". There is virtually no background noise on this recording and crowd noise is minimal. The sound is very clear. All in all, I highly recommend this bootleg to those of you chasing down rare Joshua Tree material. |
