U2 - Under A Blood Red Sky

Recorded in June 1983, this remastered CD and DVD collection captures a band on the rise to superstardom.

Recorded in Denver, Colorado in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, this stunning live gig in front of 4,000 people took place amid a torrential rain storm, but this does nothing to dampen the spirits of their fans.

Ok, so the hairdos and the fashions are quite funny, but nothing can take away from the immense power and passion of Bono and the boys' performance.

Featuring tracks drawn from their first two studio album releases, October and War, including their debut UK top ten hit, New Year's Day, it's an essential purchase for die-hard U2 fans but is also worth checking out if you're not so familiar with their early stuff as it serves as the perfect introduction.
