Notes :


I got this tape in trade about 10 years ago. I did the transfer to my PC 1 year ago and remastered the stuff. I just listened to the original tape and i can tell you there's great improvement. I don't remember all steps done to get it finished. 

Anyway, Sound is good (personal rating : 7/10), clarity and power are there. Despite the fact that it's all instrumental, it's always interesting to get instrumental version, dunno, if you plan to organize a U2 karaoke... :D A slight hiss can be hear during some parts of the recording, mostly due to normalisation process, i removed it as much as i can without killing the sound. I removed all silent part of the recording.
