For U2, the period
from May 1984 to May 1985 was an extraordinary one. In
that time they recorded and released The Unforgettable
Fire and undertook a world tour that took them onto a new
plane as perhaps the world's top act. In Bono's own phrase,
having climbed to the top of one mountain, they went to
find another. Here in songs and images is the story of
that singular ascent.
In this unique compilation you'll see
and hear what it is that has made The Unforgettable Fire
unforgettable, from the extraordinary visual images of
Pride (In the Name of Love) and the Unforgettable Fire
single to the documentary style of A Sort of homecoming
and Bad - here released in video form for the first time.
Here too, you'll see the special half-hour documentary of
the actual making of the album, shot on location at Slane
Castle and Windmill Lane Studios. The Unforgettable Fire,
tour and album is a memorable chapter in the U2 story. The
images on this video package chronicle it faithfully.
HiFi Sound. Not Rated. 51 minutes.
