Editorial Reviews:

Album Description
This limited edition collectible U2 Deluxe Edition boxset is handsomely constructed in a sturdy hardbound shell, measuring 5 3/4" (width) x 2 3/4" (spine width) x 5 7/16" (tall) and comes with the newly remastered and expanded 2 CD deluxe editions of the bands first three albums BOY, OCTOBER and WAR, plus room for a fourth (not included). Re-mastered from the original audio tapes, each deluxe includes a disc of b-sides, live tracks and rarities, and the packaging on all three titles has been restored and expanded, with new liner notes for each record, previously unseen photos and full lyrics.

This set also comes with a limited edition, exclusive 18'x24' full color replica poster from the bands beginnings, recreated just for this boxset.

People en Espanol
U2?s first three albums--Boy, October, and War--receive star treatment with these re-mastered versions, just as their legendary The Joshua Tree record did last year. Every album includes a second disc of b-side remixes, live versions, and rare performances that die-hard fans of the Irish band will surely appreciate. The box also has room for a fourth album (we assume it?s for The Joshua Tree), but we can?t help to think that they?ll come out with a second Deluxe Edition Box Set next year, with even better albums from the band?s vast musical catalog. --Ernesto Sanchez (People en Espanol People en Espanol)

Los tres primeros discos de U2--Boy, October, and War--reciben el tratamiento de lujo en versiones remasterizadas, justo como el ano pasado sucedio con su legendario The Joshua Tree. Cada titulo incluye un segundo disco de lados-b, remixes, versiones en vivo y rarezas que solo y exclusivamente los fanaticos de la banda irlandesa podran apreciar. La caja tiene espacio para un cuarto album (suponemos que para poner The Joshua Tree), pero desafortunadamente no podemos dejar de pensar en que se trata en una simple estrategia de la disquera, y que el segundo Deluxe Edition Box Set saldra el siguiente ano, con mejores albumes del grupo. --Ernesto Sanchez (People en Espanol People en Espanol)

5 out of 5 stars Super Amazing   September 2, 2008
This is a great box set at a great price. When I bought it, it was cheaper than buying them individually. Superior recording quality and the previously unreleased songs are good songs.


5 out of 5 stars U2 Remasters Boxset   September 1, 2008
The price for this boxset is worth it for the bonus cd's alone with some songs and a single that were hard to get before ("A Celebration" on the October bonus cd) although the Boy, War and October remasters sound great!!! There's a more fuller richer sound with a bit more power to the base sound. If you like U2 you must update your collection with this.


5 out of 5 stars The joy of U-2   September 1, 2008
For those who enjoy the music of U-2 this collections brings together favorites in one package with better sound than previously available. The promise of the latest release to be included also makes this package attractive. It is highly recommended that you purchase now and treasure forever.


5 out of 5 stars U2 Deluxe Edition Box Set [Amazon.com Exclusive]   August 31, 2008
Great product. The sound quality on all three albums is superb. Plus, it is nice to get extra live tracks and demo versions of these great U2 songs and the b-sides.

Lastly, the essays, contained for each album are really insightful as to where the band was at that particular moment in their career.

For those U2 fans who really enjoy the pre-Joshua Tree music, you should definitely buy this collection!



5 out of 5 stars U2 Box Set   August 30, 2008
This is a great deal. I'm so glad I bought it. Each of the albums separately were more than thirty dollars at the FYE in the mall. I would have spent 100 dollars. This was sixty-something, and came with the poster. Forget big chain record stores...
