The soundboard collection of the “WAR” era, where the shock of the masterpieces “HAMMERSMITH PALAIS 1982 (Wardour-511)” and “TIFFANY’S 1983 (Wardour-510)” is not awakened. The latest work, a longer / higher quality super masterpiece, is now available on the Permanent Preservation Press 2CD.
The engraving on this work is “May 6, 1983 Boston performance”. It is the superb stereo soundboard recording. I’m sure some of you are already coming, but this work is a big classic sound board that has symbolized the “WAR Tour”. It is the highest peak master. First of all, the position of the show before the contents that are worrisome. If you have noticed this article, you may have experienced the above two works, so let’s check the positional relationship between them in the tour schedule.

● 1982
<< September-October “WAR” production >>
・ December 1-24: Europe # 1 (20 performances) ← * HAMMERSMITH PALAIS 1982
● 1983
“February 28,” WAR “released”
・ February 26-April 3: Europe # 2 (29 performances) ← * TIFFANY’S 1983
・ April 23-June 29: North America (48 performances) ← ★ Coco ★
・ July 2nd-August 21st: Europe # 3 (5 performances)
・ November 16-30: Hawaii / Japan (7 performances)

This is U2 in the “WAR” era. “HAMMERSMITH PALAIS 1982” and “TIFFANY’S 1983”, which were released the other day and gained great popularity, were recorded on the European Tour before and after the album was released, while the Boston performance of this work is a US tour. It was the 11th performance of the “North America” ​​leg.
This show is also known to have been recorded professionally, and “11 O’Clock Tick Tock” has been adopted for the official traditional edition “UNDER A BLOOD RED SKY”. Furthermore, it was broadcast on the famous program “Super Groups In Concert”, and it is a big standard that has produced many existing groups. This work is also a big standard sound board, but it is not a copy or remastering that has already been done. Directly made into a CD from the highest peak master carefully selected by overseas U2 researchers. And that researcher is the enthusiast who supervised “HAMMERSMITH PALAIS 1982” and “TIFFANY’S 1983”, which are now very popular. It is a brand master backed by deep sound source knowledge and a solid selection eye.
In fact, the sound is the highest ever. Traditionally, it was a “completely official class”, but in this work, each note is vivid and three-dimensional, and the details can be heard in more detail. Furthermore, the sense of stability is also great. No, there was a master who was stable enough in the past, but when I listened to this work, I realized again that “actually it was fluttering”. It’s a sin-making quality that makes you feel dissatisfied with what you’re satisfied with.
If you compare this up feeling officially, it feels like a so-called remastered CD. It is also a type like the high-quality sound labels “Mobile Fidelity” and “Nimbus Super Cut”. Instead of making a flashy finish by earning unreasonable sound pressure, the sound recorded on the master itself is transferred to the utmost limit to create a three-dimensional effect and vividness. It’s not like it’s transformed into something else, it’s a type of upgrade that surprises you, “Is it like this?”
Although such a sound alone is full, the greatest awesomeness of this work is in the full show recording. “HAMMERSMITH PALAIS 1982” and “TIFFANY’S 1983” were just excerpts from the show, but this work is a two-disc set that lasts about 82 minutes. The number of songs is completely different. Let’s organize the set while comparing here.

● Boy (7 songs + α)
・ Out of Control (*) / Twilight (* ★) / An Cat Dubh (★) / Into the Heart (★) / The Cry-The Electric Co./A Day Without Me / I Will Follow (★)
● WAR (fight) (6 songs)
・ Surrender (★) / Two Hearts Beat As One (*) / Seconds (*) / Sunday Bloody Sunday / New Year’s Day / “40” (* ★)
● Others (6 songs)
・ Irish October: I Fall Down / October / I Threw A Brick Through A Window / Gloria
・ Single: Party Girl (*) / 11 O’clock Tick Tock (★)
* Note: The “*” mark is “HAMMERSMITH PALAIS 1982 (Wardour-511)”, and the “★” mark is “TIFFANY’S 1983 (Wardour-510)”.

…… And it looks like this. “Twilight” and “40” are a repertoire that you can’t listen to even if you combine the two works. Furthermore, “I Fall Down” was also lacking in the official DVD “U2 LIVE AT RED ROCKS”, which is a symbol of “WAR Tour”. I think you can understand how amazing it is by listening to the full recording of the full show.
Boston sound board that is the best masterpiece of “WAR Tour” in terms of both volume and sound. It is a superb master who updates the highest peak. Press 2CD that permanently preserves the supreme sound that only a researcher could know. Please enjoy it to your heart’s content.

★ Superb stereo soundboard recording of “May 6, 1983 Boston performance”. The highest peak of the large standard FM sound board, a brand master selected by overseas U2 researchers. Traditionally, it was a “completely official class”, but in this work, each note is vivid and three-dimensional, and the details can be heard in more detail. It is the best masterpiece sound board album with full show including “I Fall Down” which was missing from the official DVD “U2 LIVE AT RED ROCKS”.
