Here is what people are saying about the U2 - The Best of 1980-1990
5 Star Rating  "U2 at their peak"2009-11-13
- Reviewed By User: A1U9UXN8IGOOU9
I really enjoyed this period of U2s music.
After purchasing this and reflecting back while listening going down the road lets you know that this was their peak period in time.
It wound up being better than they probably thought it might be when they were working those years.
 
4 Star Rating  "A Good Album But..."2009-10-25
- Reviewed By irishgalusa
As a newer-generation U2 fan, I was interested in hearing their older material. Sure, I knew many songs from "The Joshua Tree", but beyond that, my education was lacking. Listening to "The Best of 1980-1990" seemed like a good way to catch up on the music I missed because of my age. Result? It's a good album, but as I'm quickly finding out, not a true greatest hits record.

When a band like U2 decides to go the route of a greatest hits album, there are sure to be critics following. Having the first such album cover a decade of material is a good idea; they have amassed so much music that any other attempt at cramming it all on one disc would be sure to meet with failure. Ten of the first eleven tracks are an absolute delight to listen to. Despite my young age (I was not yet born when the first of the songs from this album was released), I am familiar with most of the early ones on this disc. 'Pride (In the Name of Love)' starts off the record with an explosive energy, and from there it is, for the most part, one hit after another. I grew up listening to many of these songs, from 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking for' to 'Sunday Bloody Sunday' and everything between. But the end of the album has me puzzled. It's not that the last few tracks are bad, just that I'd never actually heard of some of them before. And 'When Love Comes to Town' seems to stick out like a sore thumb on this disc.

I can't honestly say that the music on this one is bad, because that would be a lie. However, from talking with other U2 fans and attending their 2009 360 Degrees Tour, I can say that many of the earlier hits are missing from this album. Worth it? Depends on what's in your current collection, or whether or not you like having hit songs all in one place. But in this age of digital downloads, it seems that you might be better off picking out your own favorites.
 
4 Star Rating  "Excellent introduction for casual fans"2009-10-06
- Reviewed By User: A2HFL26OQJ2T9X
For casual U2 fans, the sort of people who jumped on board with 'Pride' or 'With Or Without You', this album provides as good a summary as you can get of the band's early days. Nearly all of the band's important early songs are here: 'I Will Follow', 'Sunday Bloody Sunday', 'New Year's Day', 'Pride', 'Bad', 'Where the Streets Have No Name', 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For', 'With Or Without You', 'Desire', 'All I Want Is You'. To be honest, it's almost impossible to go wrong with the set of hits U2 churned out through the 80's.

On the other hand, there isn't that much here for die-hard fans, who would have all the studio albums anyway. A re-recorded version of B-side 'The Sweetest Thing' is the only "new" song here, and while it's pleasant enough, it's probably not worth the price of a new album. Another problem is that the songs are not in chronological order; given each album had a slightly different feel, it would have been better if we could follow their musical progression from post-punk wannabees to stadium rock superstars. And I'm not sure that 'Rattle And Hum' deserved FOUR songs on here, especially since tracks like 'Gloria' and 'Bullet The Blue Sky' were left off. Either of those two would be more deserving of a place than 'When Love Comes To Town', for example.

These minor quibbles aside, 'Best Of 1980-1990' is a strong collection that provides an accurate representation of the first phase of U2's career for casual fans.

It's great to go back and listen the music that helped make U2 one of the biggest bands ever. Even if they didn't release an album after Rattle and Hum they would have left a great legacy. Great buy!
