Nothing new here...

"If you're a U2 fan you've heard this all before. A spoken commentary of the band's early beginnings at Mount Temple through their rise to superstardom until the relatively recent Pop album. Each chapter is punctuated by a comment from the band (usually Bono). The CD would benefit from samples of the songs discussed and more actual commentary from the band - the lack of these probably due to legal constraints. Overall, the CD is good for what it is - a chronogical description of a band's rise to fame. It's value would be for those new to the world of U2, but for the ardent fan it's all old news."
No original music

"I was disappointed to receive the CD and read on the back cover "This is a spoken word product and contains NO original music by the artist." This was not disclosed in the product description or song list."
