Another Time, Another Place - U2 Live at the Marquee, London 1980

Unpacking U2’s *Another Time, Another Place*: A Limited Edition Treasure for Fans

After months of eager anticipation, my U2.com subscriber gift has finally arrived! This year’s exclusive vinyl release, *Another Time, Another Place*, captures the raw energy and spirit of U2’s early days. For long-time fans, this limited-edition live album is more than just a collectible—it’s a time capsule that transports you back to 1980, when the band was on the cusp of greatness.

Why This Gift Is a Standout

For subscribers, receiving a vinyl record as part of the U2.com membership is an amazing perk. The double 10” vinyl album comes in a bespoke gatefold sleeve and features 10 tracks recorded live at London’s iconic Marquee Club. This set captures U2’s early performances as they introduced their unique sound to audiences across the UK and Ireland.

What’s Inside?

  • Exclusive Recordings: The live tracks, recorded on September 29, 1980, showcase the band’s youthful intensity and growing confidence.
  • Limited Edition Design: The gatefold sleeve design and high-quality vinyl make this a true collector’s item.
  • Bono’s Reflections: Side 4 includes Bono’s insights, where he recalls the significance of those early performances at the Marquee Club.

In the video above, I share my unboxing experience and first impressions of this extraordinary gift. It’s a must-watch for fans who appreciate the finer details of this vinyl release.
