U2 - A Sort of Homecoming (Extended Live Version / Different Mix)

Details

Description

This is what I consider to be a "could have been" mix of A Sort of Homecoming. I've combined the standard version with the Alternate Vocal / Different Mix found on the Australian Unforgettable Fire 12" to allow for a song structure more similar to the album cut - including Edge's harmony vocals on the first verse and a complete second verse. This song was recorded at a sound check and produced by Tony Visconti and is only "live" in that there is crowd noise added. Obviously they did different vocal takes. There are multiple Edge vocal overdubs throughout the alternate version as well as a completely different vocal performance by Bono. I edited two slightly different versions (audio) and couldn't decide which I liked best so I've incorporated both in the video. I first put this mix together 5 years ago and am finally posted it. I hope U2 fans enjoy it.
