Great CD

Such a great album!

Lo mejor de la década de los 80 en vinilo de U2

The early hits. In my opinion. Their best songs! Recommended.

Sound quality is not perfect but still good.

Let me first be absolutely clear--I'm not a fan of 'Best of's for the true fan of an artist of band. Let me be absolutely clear about something else--I've never been a U2 fan. I don't turn them off when they're on the radio, but in over 25 years of buying music, I never felt compelled to purchase one of their records.Until now.This collection is perfect for what I call 'the Radio Fan.' This is a person not concerned with the genesis of a project, or of how an album fits together, or of hearing the chronological progression of a band's sound. It's simply U2's best known tracks from the 80s, presented, seemingly, in order of popularity rather than chronologically or with an eye to an overall aesthetic for the album. It's a 15-song sampling of the group during those years, and for those of us who never really cared about them beyond what we heard on the radio or saw on MTV (oh, for the days when they played videos!), this collection is just about perfect.Highlights include...well, just about the whole thing, since it's a "Best of," but my personal favorites are "Sunday, Bloody Sunday," and Pride (In the Name of Love)." Both songs are infectious with that distinctive U2 chime and Bono's just-short-of-a-breakdown histrionic vocals. Good, catchy stuff.There's absolutely nothing here for the true fan of U2--no B-sides, no alternate takes, no remixes, no demos. Just those radio songs that people like me remember fondly.So, for the true fan who owns all the albums and sets--0 stars.For the Radio Fans of the band--5 stars.Recommended for nostalgic children of the 80s.

This is mine and my husband's favorite Irish guys. My husband passed away 12yrs ago and I keep this CD playing 24/7 tured down low. This is the 5th one I have ordered. This CD came a little earlier than expected and that is always nice. Great purchase.
