Unforgettable Fire, U2 turned toward themes of personal identity and complex relationships on The Joshua Tree. Not that the group was willing to come down off the barricades entirely: "Mothers of the Disappeared" and "Bullet the Blue Sky" turned a jaundiced eye toward Central America and the United States's role there. But the predominant mood here is one of self-discovery and the hunger for something more on tracks like the pulsating "Where the Streets Have No Name" and the gospel-ish "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For". The album's masterstroke, however, is "With or Without You", a nasty love song dressed up as an ode of devotion and care. It ranks with the Police's "Every Breath You Take" as the most misread smash hit of the 1980s. --Daniel Durchholz

great item features the superb photograph from the back cover of their fifth studio album, 'The Joshua Tree', which was first released on the 9th March 1987. In moody black and white, Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen, Jr. look straight into the camera, the Joshua Tree visible behind them, with a fantastic neutral coloured border setting the image off beautifully.

Advantages: A musical masterpiece by the Dublin Masters Disadvantages: Only drawback? Its success inspired U2 to make "Rattle and Hum!"
"The JoshuaTree" is more than an album; it is a work of art. It is more than a defining album for the Republic of Ireland's greatest export; it defined a generation. "The JoshuaTree" is easily the best album to come out of the Eighties, both in content and in being musically way before its time.
Where to begin? How about the 3 number 1s that came off this album: "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For," "Where the Streets Have No Name," and "With or Without You?" Whole reams of paper have been and could still be written on these three songs alone (not to mention their videos). These songs never age; they are still as relevant today as they were 20 years ago. For example, I was in the U.S. the night U2 performed "Streets" at the Super Bowl. The way they re-contextualised that song that night gave it a whole new layer ...
Advantages: A classic album Disadvantages: Atmospheric rather than packed with adrenalin
about done by The Edge, all you need to know is that it contains the tracks "I still haven't found what I'm looking for", "Where the streets have no name" and "With or without you", as well as "Bullet the blue sky", plus "Trip through your wires", my favourite song in the world at the time.
For those with cash to spare, U2 can extract it in lots of ways with the packaging for this reissue: standard cd featuring liner notes, lyrics and unseen photographs; a double 12" gatefold vinyl, with the original album pressed across two 180 gram audiophile discs (whoopee doop, though my original and by-now battered copy of the vinyl release needs replacing); a deluxe edition including a second cd of b-sides and demos from the original album sessions, and a limited edition box set containing two cds and a dvd featuring "The Joshuatree" tour live from ...
Advantages: A great album Disadvantages: A couple of weak tracks
The JoshuaTree released in 1987 is widely acclaimed as the album that finally gave U2 their ticket to superstardom status. Many have proclaimed this album as THE album of the mid 80's,with this album U2 could do no wrong. The JoshuaTree was to show the world that U2 had homed their skills into a more sophisticated sound. The JoshuaTree adds to their unique rock sound a mixture of blues and folk influences in an album, that pays homage to many overtly political issues as well as looking at finding inner spirituality. Gone is the rawness of preceding albums. What The JoshuaTree does is serve up a rich cocktail of different sounds. The politic message is still there but in a more subtler form. What you have to remember is that The JoshuaTree was recorded in the aftermath of Live aid and the famine in Ethiopia of the mid 80's ...

Album Notes
U2: Bono (vocals, harmonica); The Edge (guitar, keyboards, background vocals); Adam Clayton (bass); Larry Mullen, Jr. (drums). Additional personnel includes: Daniel Lanois (guitar, keyboards, tambourine, background vocals); Brian Eno (keyboards, programming, background vocals). Recorded at Windmill Lane Studios, Dublin, Ireland. THE JOSHUA TREE won the 1987 Grammy award for album of the year. After their arresting appearance at Live Aid, U2 album sales went berserk across the globe, and the world waited impatiently for their next release. The Joshua Tree arrived, and fans were not disappointed. There are few weaknesses, musical or lyrical, in this album. The pure power of the music and patent honesty of the lyrics steer the band clear of whimsy and self-indulgence. The anguish and questioning is shot through with faith as they chant and stomp and batter their way through instant classics such as 'Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For', 'Where The Streets Have No Name' and 'With Or Without You', leaving the listener bruised but elated.
