NOTE: Colin Parkinson ripped this recording from DVD to .mpg, added chapters and menus, and then burned it back to DVD.

My comments for this bootleg are the same as for the "Joshua Tree Paris - Hippodrome de Vincennes" DVD...

The audio on this bootleg is pretty solid, although not top notch considering it comes from the soundboard.  There is a soft purring noise in the background throughout "40" that sounds somewhat like a running motor.  The video is clear, but could be sharper.  There is a narrow horizontal line of distortion that works its way up the screen throughout the recording.  There is a major edit during "I Will Follow" that sacrifices almost an entire verse of the song.

The second video seems to be taken from an Island promotional video.  "C'Mon Everybody", "Bullet the Blue Sky", and "Running To Stand Still" on the second video are also from the Paris 04 July 1987 concert.  The sharpness of this footage is a bit better than it is on the first video.

The Old Grey Whistle Test footage from 1987 is decent bonus material.  The video quality is fairly poor, with the bright stage lights occasionally causing a virtual washout on the screen.  However, the audio is pretty good soundboard.
