Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Limited edition double LP vinyl pressing of U2's soundtrack to their documentary of the same name. **Please note that this vinyl pressing features 'For Promotional Use Only' printed on the artwork. 2007

Amazon.com:
The ill will that initially greeted Rattle and Hum--the follow-up to the band's massively successful Joshua Tree album--was due in large part to the bloated and self-important feature film that accompanied it, which showed the band as being simultaneously naive and pretentious as it 'discovered' America. But as the film mercifully slips from memory, the music has remained, from the furious swirl of 'Desire' and a clutch of live hits to insightful musical nods to heroes such as Bob Dylan, John Lennon, and Billie Holiday. Songs like 'When Love Comes to Town,' a supercharged blues duet with B.B. King, suggests the quartet knew more about America from listening to its music than Phil Joanou's unintentional mockumentary suggested. --Daniel Durchholz

- Toss the live tracks insert a few b-sides and you have a classic!
After having read a lot of the mid to negative reviews of Rattle & Hum I must confess that many of them are right about several things.

Could be nice if U2 gave it a makeover in a future extended cd version. They could for instance put the live tracks on one CD and add some more of those from the movie and make 1 CD of the studiomaterial+some of the b-sides from that period. I have played a litle with the tracklisting and a studio album of Rattle & Hum could look like this:

Desire
Angel of Harlem
Hallelujah (Here she comes) (B-side)
Hawkmoon 269
Van Diemen's Land (Complete version without the early fade please!!)
Silver and Gold (studio version b-side Joshua tree period)
Love come rescue me

When loves come to town
Heartland
Dancing Barefoot (B-side)
God part II
A room at the heartbreak hotel (B-side)

- A U2 CLASSIC! LIVE!
This album is one of their best. A great LIVE cut for this band. Bono's passion for what he sings ignites the audience. The Edge and the rest of the band putting forth extraordinary energy in every note. Buy this and enjoy it for years.

- helter skelter.....
U2 don't deserve to be allowed to cover that awesome song. Get motley Crue and the BEatles up there to kick bono's arse.

"This song Charles Manson stole from the Beatles, now were steeling it back".

Bono "singing" Helter-Skelter sounds incredibly unprofessional, he can't seem to get the timing or the lyrics right. Check it out if you get a chance it is ridiculous!
In my opinion remaking a Beatles song is a sin!
The pompous moron who calls himself Bono is the last person who should be remaking Beatles songs. Bono has always compared his inept, politically motivated band, U2 to the Beatles. If U2 were going to be the next Beatles they missed their window back in the Eighties! The Beatles did it in 7 Years; U2 has had 28 years to do it! Compare the two bands total Number 1 singles. U2, 4 UK and 2 US Billboard Hot 100. Yet the Beatles have released a 79 minute album called Beatles 1. This album contains 27 Number One Hits from a band that released their first studio album in 1963, Please Please Me, and their ... Read More
