U2: Rattle and Hum HD-DVD
Posted by Ighuaran in Commentary, Music Multimedia, New Releases, Performance, Reviews
I was too young to recognize when I saw U2′s Rattle and Hum in theaters back in the early 90′s that it is shot by Jordan Cronenweth (the DP of Blade Runner fame), but revisiting it on HD-DVD – it is an amazing thing to behold. I consider this to be U2′s golden period – when they immersed themselves in roots American music and produced amazing tracks like Angel of Harlem, recorded at Sun Studios or employed a gospel choir to revisit With or Without You. A landmark music doc that merits at least one more look.
Oh btw, HD-DVD R.I.P.
