U2 - Live In Chicago Featuring U2

Review by Neal Kodinsky

Live In Chicago Featuring U2 by U2 is an electrifying album that captures the energy and passion of the iconic rock band's live performances. Recorded during their Vertigo Tour in 2005, the album features 23 tracks that showcase the band's greatest hits and deep cuts.

The album opens with the soaring anthem "City of Blinding Lights," which sets the tone for the rest of the show. Bono's vocals are as powerful and emotive as ever, and the rest of the band - The Edge on guitar, Adam Clayton on bass, and Larry Mullen Jr. on drums - provide a tight, driving rhythm section.

Other standout tracks include "Vertigo," "Beautiful Day," and "Where the Streets Have No Name," all of which are performed with an intensity and urgency that only U2 can deliver. The band also performs a number of lesser-known tracks, such as "Miss Sarajevo" and "Zoo Station," which showcase their versatility and range.

Throughout the album, the crowd's energy is palpable, and their enthusiasm only adds to the excitement of the performances. The band clearly feeds off the audience's energy, and their interactions with the crowd are both genuine and heartfelt.

Summary by Neal Kodinsky

Live In Chicago Featuring U2 is a must-have for any U2 fan, as well as anyone who appreciates the power and passion of live music. The album captures the essence of what makes U2 one of the greatest rock bands of all time, and is a testament to their enduring legacy.
