Synopsis

Dublin's favourite sons and the 'thinking man's rock band' U2 perform live at Colorado's breathtaking outdoor Red Rocks Amphitheater. Bono is at his rock star best and guitarist The Edge is as technically adept as usual. Taped in the early day's of the band's lengthy career, U2 performs some of their now canonised classics including 'Sunday Bloody Sunday', 'Gloria', and 'New Year's Day'.

5.0 out of 5 stars A rare look at the legendary band in their early days, 6 Sep 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: U2 - Live At Red Rocks - Under A Blood Red Sky [VHS] [1983] (VHS Tape)
People more familiar with the U2 of the "Achtung Baby" and "Pop" albums should check out this video for educational purposes alone. Filemd June 3, 1983 on a rainy night in Denver, Colorado, the band supports their groundbreaking "War" album with this hour-long concert video. People expecting to see giant TV screens and twenty foot Lemons may be a bit disappointed and should probably look into their latter videos of the ZooTV or PopMart shows. This is nothing more than a great band and unbeleivably great music. Visual aids are stripped down to nothing more than a white flag waved by frontman Bono during "Sunday Bloody Sunday." And guitarist The Edge shows his truly unique style and technique on songs like "Surrender", "Gloria" and "I Threw a Brick Through a Window." By far, one of the best concert videos ever produced for the rock and roll medium, and a must-see for fans of great music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Early U2 at It's Best, 29 Nov 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: U2 - Live At Red Rocks - Under A Blood Red Sky [VHS] [1983] (VHS Tape)
This video captures one of U2's finest performances of all time. Okay there aren't scores of world-wide smash hits and giant TV screens, but what there is is plenty of raw stripped down music from one of the worlds greatest ever bands. This concert was shot at Red Rocks colorado in 1983. The rain poured throughout the show soaking the 4000 capacity crowd that had turned up to see ,then cult, heroes Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Junior. However the crowd were warmed by the passionate performance of 22 year old Bono. This video illustrates where U2 got the tag of being "Rock's Consience" from. The highlight of the video being Bono's flag waving antics during their biggest hit of the time Sunday Bloody Sunday. Other hits included are the UK no.3 song New Years Day and I Will Follow, but in the main the songs are probably much lesser known than hits of later days such as With or Without You. Nevertheless 11 'o' clock tic talk and Surrender are sung with a passion and rawness that makes them instantly enjoyable. For U2 fans this is a must have album and I would highly recommend it for any rock fan.
