U2's The Joshua Tree has been meticulously remastered from the original analogue master tapes to mark 20 years since its release and will be available from 3rd December 2007.
"There has been continuous demand from U2 fans to have The Joshua Tree properly re-mastered," says Paul McGuinness. "As always, the band had to make sure it was right, and now it is."
In 1987, The Joshua Tree reached Number 1 around the world and won a Grammy for "Album of the Year", while U2 won the Brit Award for Best International Act and Time Magazine put the band on its cover, proclaiming them "Rock's Hottest Ticket". Including the singles I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For, Where The Streets Have No Name and With Or Without You, The Joshua Tree went on to sell in excess of 20 million including achieving 14 X PLATINUM STATUS in NZ with sales in excess of 210,000 units. The album spent 8 weeks at #1 on the NZ Top 40 Charts and a total of 111 weeks on the charts so far!!!
The CD format features remastered audio, liner notes by Bill Flanagan (author of “U2 At The End Of The World”) and previously unseen Anton Corbijn photos.
