Vinyl-loving U2 freaks will drool over super-deluxe Joshua Tree box

    1 of 1 2 of 1

      What do you get the hardcore U2 fan who's already got tickets to the show at B.C. Place on May 12, but whose dog-eared copy of The Joshua Tree sports more scratches than Bono has dollar bills?

      Universal Music Canada announced today that on June 2 it will release various 30th anniversary versions of that classic album, including a pretty sweet vinyl box.

      Here's some promotional bumph: 

      Alongside the 11-track album, the super deluxe collector’s edition includes a live recording of The Joshua Tree Tour 1987 Madison Square Garden concert; rarities and B-sides from the album’s original recording sessions; as well as 2017 remixes from Daniel Lanois, St Francis Hotel, Jacknife Lee, Steve Lillywhite and Flood; plus an 84-page hardback book of unseen personal photography shot by The Edge during the original Mojave Desert photo session in 1986.
