U2•The Joshua Tree•Island Records (#90581-1)•Allied Pressing, Gatefold

This vintage vinyl LP from 1987 has been • CLEANED & PLAY-GRADED 👍 'The Joshua Tree' is the fifth studio album by the Irish rock band U2. It was released in March 1987 by Island Records. In contrast to the ambient experimentation of their 1984 release, 'The Unforgettable Fire,' the band aimed for a harder-hitting sound within the limitation of conventional song structures on 'The Joshua Tree.' The album is influenced by American and Irish roots music, and through sociopolitically conscious lyrics embellished with spiritual imagery, it contrasts the group's antipathy for the "real America" with their fascination with the "mythical America". The Joshua Tree topped the charts in over 20 countries and produced the hit singles 'With or Without You', 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For', and 'Where the Streets Have No Name', the first two of which became the group's only number-one singles in the US. The album won Grammy Awards for Album of the Year and Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal at the 1988 ceremony.
