This unique U2 7" is in excellent condition. It is mislabeled in the fact that is does not indicate it has a live version of "Gloria." Between 1985 and 1989 Island Records pressed a number of low priced singles under the banner “Revival Of The Fittest” often pairing past singles from an artists catalog. This version saw “Gloria” backed with “Sunday Bloody Sunday”. The actual labels on the record say that “Gloria” was from the October album, and that “Sunday Bloody Sunday” was from the War album . That info is incorrect. This live version of “Gloria” is taken from “Under A Blood Red Sky” and although "Sunday Bloody Sunday" is the studio version, it is actually a shorter edited version and not the version that appears on War. In fact, the release dates stated on both sides of this single for the October and War albums, are both incorrect. It has been stored in a protective plastic sleeve and has never been played. The cover has some wear and aging.
