Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Not for the casual fanThe original Boy album is a great CD and the remastering is well done here with a lot of muddled aspects of the original cleaned up. But this deluxe 2CD set is definitely not for the casual fan and not worth the money. The second disc has only noteworthy moments. The early versions of "Stories for boys" and "Out of control" are interesting for a true U2 fan. As is the song "Saturday night". But "Boy-girl" and "Cartoon world" are horrible. The live version of 11 O'Clock Tick Tock is forgettable. Basically, this 2CD set offers interesting insight into the beginnings of U2. But for the casual fan, I would recommend buying the single disc, since even I, a big U2 fan, will not be throwing the second disc in the player all that often. Read More: Rating: - Familiar tunes return, new gems delight2 complete CDs, both a joy for different reasons: the original songs bring back a sense of nostalgia for the band's exuberant beginnings, and the new tracks of live recordings and some never before released are a delightful surprise. It's a complete U2 package for those who really love this band. Comes with a very polished book with historical photos, retrospective by Paul Morley and comments by The Edge on the rare and unreleased tracks. It's worth the extra expense if you want to go deeper into the U2 catalog. Rating: - BOY DO I LOVE THIS ALBUM!The packaging on the Deluxe 2 CD set is absolutely stunning; I especially love the little essay and notes written by The Edge. Re-mastered by Cheryl Engels and Arnie Acosta at Bernie Grundman Mastering, with direction by The Edge, the original album sounds fantastic. A tremendous improvement over the original CD release back in the day. I'm enjoying this album like I'm hearing it for the first time! I agree with everyone else's comments. The bonus tracks are fun and interesting to me. Rating: - Boy, That's the TicketI agree with everyone else who reviewed it, but check it out, very much worth the money, geeze wish I would not have bout all the original singles etc from them but anyway, a great first album and late for work and need to cut this off, so get the CD's. Search "Judemac forever" on google, msn or yahoo & visit out little site. Rating: - "It's a musical journey."What a debut! This is an awesome intro to U2 at the beginning. I admit I didn't even discover it until after Under a Blood Red Sky and "Sunday Bloody Sunday" in 1983 on MTV, heck I was only 10 (probably not much older than the 'boy' on the cover), but once I got clued in to them after that then Boy, October, and War were in constant rotation on my tape deck. "Out of Control" still rules, and the rarities on the second disc are some of the best. "Boy-Girl", "Things to Make and Do", "Touch", and "Another Day" are also great and there are even a few surprises I never even heard of! I remember sitting in front of the radio back around 1987-88 listening to local radio station 91X's first few U2 A-Z weekends trying to capture every non-album song they ... Read More: |
