People en Español
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  ) 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 )

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.

 GREAT DEAL/BARGAIN!!! October 13, 2008
I was not going to buy these for $30 a pop at my local record store...but a boxed set for the price of 2? Count me in. The box is great and holds the three double disc sets PLUS the new Live 2 disc set. It LOOKS like it was a fortune. Thanks Amazon for making deals like this and helping folks pick up collectors sets for CHEAP. Keep on keepin.

I bought this for my wife for her birthday and she really likes the set. Once we opened the package I noticed the bonus CD for the October album was not a bonus CD it was just a duplicate of the original. I was expecting more from this box set but my wife is the one that I have to make sure is satisified with the set.
 Great value and hard to resist October 1, 2008
The hardest part with a collection like this is that, if you're a long-time or ardent fan, you'll already own more than half these tracks. The unique packaging, new sleeve inserts and rare tracks help to make it more attractive. But it was the lure of buying this exclusive from Amazon for less than the cost of buying 2 individual deluxe CD's from my usual store that was the clincher.
I'm no audiophile but I have to say I think the remastered albums sound good and have an appealling clarity and depth to them.
In terms of the bonus discs my only gripe is with War and the lack of variety on it. I don't really want to listen to 4 consecutive remixes of New Year's Day and 3 of Two Hearts; one of each would have been enough.
The poster is an odd edition. Uncreased, it would have been worthy of framuing and putting on display. But after being folded and packed in the box, why would you bother?
In summary, this collection is only for the most dedicated fan or a good starting point if you don't own any U2 or are a late convert.
