Album Notes
This special edition includes a bonus DVD featuring live and video performances from 1990 to 2000.U2: Bono (vocals, guitar); The Edge (guitar, keyboards, background vocals); Adam Clayton (bass); Larry Mullen (drums, percussion).Additional personnel includes: William Orbit, Craig Armstrong.Producers include: Steve Lillywhite, Brian Eno, Daniel Lanois, William Orbit, U2.The decade of the 1990's was an era of transition for the legendary quartet from Dublin known to the world as U2. An earlier (and more serious) body of work gave way to albums such as POP and ZOOROPA, which radiated the band's positivity and energy in a more lighthearted fashion. THE BEST OF 1990-2000 culls the benchmark tracks from the band's studio albums ("One," "The First Time," "Beautiful Day"), as well as key movie soundtrack cuts ("Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me," "Miss Sarajevo"). While some diehards cooled their passion for the band in the height of their glitz and glamour, experiencing "Stay (Faraway, So Close)" shows the band stripped down to perfection in their most basic and graceful state. THE BEST OF goes even further, luring collectors with new tracks ("Electrical Storm," "The Hands That Built America") as well as new mixes of "Numb" and "Discotheque."

Q (12/01/2002)

...U2 issued enough alternative material in the 90's to make this two-CD set worth considering... - Rating: B-
Entertainment Weekly (11/08/2002)

...What this collection reveals, ultimately, is that U2 are the sum of their constituent parts....It's the non-muso element to all this that makes U2 such a human group...
Mojo (12/01/2002)

4 out of 5 - ...There are two new tracks. Complex, sprawling and fascinating. 'Electrical Storm' swells with every hearing...

If ur a U2 fan this is a fab buy. I have all u2s albums but this has got a lot of songs that aint on any of the others. Lady with the spinning head is a record I personnally love and cannot understand why they never released this for the charts.

Review created: 05/05/07

I had this on cd and am now happy to own it on dvd as well.
I love U2s music. They are one of my favourite bands.
I cant say anything bad about this band, its music, or the product I am writing about.
