Description
The “ZOO TV Tour” captivated the world with the spectacle of the century. Introducing the Matrix album, which imprints that glorious live performance into your brain. This work is sealed with the “June 15, 1992 Rotterdam performance.” It is a stereo soundboard and a matrix sound source of the finest audience. Speaking of the “ZOO TV Tour,” it is a fierce battleground, crowded with the official work “ZOO TV: LIVE FROM SYDNEY” and the soundboard super masterpiece “DEFINITIVE DUBLIN 1993 2ND NIGHT: 2025 REMASTER & REMIX.” First, let’s take a bird’s-eye view of the activity overview and approach the position of this work. 1992 February 29th – April 23rd: North America #1 (32 performances) ← *Mirrored recording May 7th – June 19th: Europe #1 (25 performances) ←★Here★ August 7th – November 25th: North America #2 (47 performances) ←*WASHINGTON 1992 1993 May 9th – July 3rd: Europe #2a (20 performances) ←*BERLIN 1993 (“ZOOROPA” released on July 5th) July 6th – August 28th: Europe #2b (23 performances) ←★*DEFINITIVE DUBLIN 1993 and others November 12th – December 4th: Oceania (8 performances) ←*Official footage December 9th + 10th: Japan (2 performances)This is the overall picture of the “ZOO TV Tour”. While both “LIVE FROM SYDNEY” and “DEFINITIVE DUBLIN 1993 2ND NIGHT” were released on the “ZOOROPA” label, the Rotterdam performance on this album was the early part of the tour. It was the 22nd performance of “Europe #1.” This work, which conveys such a show, features a matrix sound that combines extreme thickness and vividness. The stereo soundboard recording is the main focus, and the performance sounds and vocals are intensely on and direct. There is no sense of distance at all; rather, the sense of synchronization seems to be ringing in your head. The immersive feeling that only a soundboard can provide is intense. On top of that, the vivid reality of the venue is also delicious. Of course, there are no close-up squeals; only the excitement between songs and the scale of the large venue “Ahoy Rotterdam” are realistically conveyed. The sound is like a combination of the realism of the performance and the realism of the venue, extracted and fused from each recording. Such a raw, thick sound is depicted as a full show, precisely because it is “Europe #1”. As mentioned above, the symbol of the tour is the official “ZOO TV: LIVE FROM SYDNEY”, but speaking of the 1992 edition, Mike Millard’s “LOS ANGELES 1992 1ST NIGHT” is also a classic. Let’s organize the set by comparing them together. Achtung Baby (9 songs) Zoo Station / The Fly / Even Better Than The Real Thing / Mysterious Ways / One / Until The End Of The World / Who’s Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses (★) / Tryin’ To Throw Your Arms Around The World (★) / Love Is Blindness and others (12 songs) Joshua Tree: Bullet The Blue Sky / Running To Stand Still / Where The Streets Have No Name / I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For (★) / With Or Without You and others: Angel Of Harlem / Dancing Queen (★★: ABBA) / Satellite Of Love (Lou Reed) / Bad (★) / Pride (In The Name Of Love) / Stand By Me (★★: Ben E. King) / Desire (★) *Note: Songs marked with “★” cannot be heard on “ZOO TV: LIVE FROM SYDNEY”. In particular, the “★★” marks are songs not even heard on Millard’s previous album, “LOS ANGELES 1992 1ST NIGHT.” …And so it goes. The first half of the set is centered around “ACHTUNG BABY,” while the second half is centered around “THE JOSHUA TREE” numbers, adding a touch of color to the set with a variety of covers. The acoustic section features a cover of ABBA’s “Dancing Queen,” a delicious track only previously performed at select venues. This is the 1992 edition of the “ZOO TV Tour,” which churns out the repertoire of two of Millard’s greatest albums. This soundboard album will let you experience the full story in your mind. The matrix, which also utilizes the finest audience, adds a special touch. This is a stereo soundboard recording from the “June 15, 1992 Rotterdam performance” plus a matrix sound source with the finest audience. The stereo soundboard recording is the main focus, with the performance sounds and vocals intensely on-the-fly and direct. On top of that, the vivid reality of the scene is also delicious. It is a full live album with unique images where you can enjoy the “ZOO TV Tour” that chugs along with “ACHTUNG BABY” and “THE JOSHUA TREE” numbers.
