OU comments: This was the 1st US tour for then 21 year old Sinéad who was riding the hugely popular debut album "the lion and the cobra". At the time of this posting (late March 2012) there was just one other earlier USA Sinéad show, five days before this one from March 26th at the World in N.Y.C.
eight songs played in this broadcast are heard in that (studio) record, all except for the Smiths one, including all three of the ones that became singles. if an Irish artist wants to make it big in the USA Boston is a good place to start. there's a very large Irish population in Boston area, it was one of the first places beyond Ireland that U2 became hugely popular, and Sinéad O'Connor also became very popular in short time in the Little Ireland of New England.
her second album, "I do not want what I haven't got" wasn't released until 1990, including probably her most popular hit around here, "nothing compares to you"
there is a live video recorded just a couple of months later (June 3, 1988) at the Dominion Theater in London UK with seven songs from the debut album, and another one called "the year of the horse" recorded in Brussels and Rotterdam in late Oct. 1990, and a couple of others recorded in the 2000's.
