Notes:
This is the very first show from the JT tour, and probably the most unfortunate tour starter of the band's career. Bono's vocal chords were heavily damaged in addition with already difficult conditions (hot and humid) in Arizona, made his voice barely listenable right from the beginning of the show. So vocalwide the performance is very poor. As a result of this, following day's show in the same venue was cancelled and postponed on the 4th. So this is the full 85 minutes set, where most of the encores, including With or Without You were cut from the setlist. Probably as a thank for the patience during these two very difficult shows, the band decided to close the JT world tour with two dates in Tempe in december 1987.

Soundwise this is good and listenable, although not the best of the quality. My tape was running far too fast, so I tried to adjust speed according to my ear. I did not touch anything more since I felt that the sound was good enough. I haven't seen this one circulating, so please enjoy the starter of one of the best tour U2 has ever performed.
