👍 I was born during the Baby Boomer generation and was in my 20’s when this concert was done. But, until today I have never once heard THESE 2 songs by U2, and now I’m going on 70! IDK why there are many 👎 comments about the songs and performance of them? I think we had some of the best music in those days - it’s a shame imo that so many people can’t relate to, or appreciate music such as this, and prefer to listen to the ‘run of the mill’ artists popular today instead. * BTW: The Moody Blues put on a really great concert at Red Rocks too back then!

Girl, enjoy the catch( up! I fell in love with them when I was 15/16, and am now almost 53 yrs old) Hard to believe great music like this has been around so long. Was lucky enough to see them live here in Australia a couple of times. Best concert was the Joshua Tree concert. Have a look at the Unforgettable Fire (Sloane Castle documentary) and the full version of Red Rocks concert.

@@gaycha6589 Thx 🙏 I will! And I agree that it’s quite often the lesser known songs, like this one, done by well known artists/bands that are better than their popular others! I IDK if this is the correct way of describing these - but I’d consider them as being on the ‘B’ or ‘flip’ side of their vinyl records/CD’s. They never seemed to get the attention they deserved - as this one should have for example!

This is one of the best guitar solos of all time. It is criminally underrated because so many people don't understand that a good solo should serve the song not the player. Most guys just try to shred 1000 random notes trying to show off and they could learn a lot from this solo. Every note is perfect and just grabs you when you hear it. I just learned how to play it on the guitar and every note just feels so good to play that I keep getting stuck in this trance where I can't stop playing it for like an hour. As soon as I hit the last note in the solo, I just can't help but start over again cuz it just sounds so good(and trust me, that is because of the amazing song, not my playing)
