U2 Boy, October, War re-issue bonus disc tracklist

I thought there was a thread about these, but I searched and couldn't find it since "U2" is too short. Anyway, following is the tracklisting for the next 3 bonus discs with an article from Billboard:

A wealth of previously unreleased and rare material will be found on reissues of the early U2 albums Boy, War and October, due July 22 via Universal. Each album will be available as a remastered single CD, a deluxe set with a second disc of extras and on vinyl.

U2's 1980 debut album, Boy, features the previously unreleased tracks "Speed of Life," "Saturday Night" and "Cartoon World" and a previously unreleased mix of "I Will Follow." "Boy-Girl" and "11 O'Clock Tick Tock" are captured in live versions taped at London's Marquee.

The new edition of 1981's October boasts a series of tracks taped live at London's Hammersmith Palais and Boston's Paradise Theatre, a BBC session with Richard Skinner and Common Ground's remix of "Tomorrow."

1983's War is bolstered here with the previously unreleased track "Angels Too Tied to the Ground," several remixes of "New Year's Day" and "Two Hearts Beat as One" plus the 7-inch single edit of "New Year's Day."

U2 is recording its next album with producers Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois. No release date has been set, but rumblings are that it may be out before the end of the year via Interscope.

Here are the tracklists for the U2 reissue bonus discs:

"Boy-Girl" (Live at the Marquee, London)

War:
"Endless Deep"

Boy will be a must. Probably October also. War is kinda shitty. Couldn't they find something better than all of those repetitive remixes?

In regards to War, I'm actually pretty psyched, as those "USA Remixes" are VERY good. In fact, the version of "New Years Day", has completely different lyrics form the regular version, and I wouldn't so much call it a remix, as I would an alternate take on the song. I've got and old import single of them, and was hoping they would show up on this re-issue.

Well, I never picked up the CDs of these albums (I had them on vinyl), so I guess now's a good time to do so.

agreed.

but, i'll probably pick them all up just for the remastered sound (if it's good...).

i can't stand "bonus discs" that come with the same song over and over again in different incarnations. even if they are great mixes.

what we REALLY need is an entire live concert on a bonus disc! i'd be all over that like flies on shit.

Sorta off topic. Here a good article on the 25th Anniversary of U2's legendary Red Rocks performance featured in Under a Blood Red Sky.

Sounds more like a pricing error than a sale.
