    U2 To Re-Release Infamous 'Joshua Tree' Album

    U2 are to re-release ‘Joshua Tree’ to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the album.

    The reissue of the classic Brian Eno produced album will be available to fans in four different formats – a single CD, Double-CD, Double-CD and DVD box set and a special vinyl collection.

    The single CD version of the album will come in a jewel case, while the Double-CD will be available in a hard back binding.

    The standout piece from the collection is the Double-CD and DVD box set which, along with the album, will include five photos and personal messages from the band in the album notes.

    According to Billboard, the DVD will feature the band’s documentary, ‘Outside It's America,’ as well as live footage from the band’s show at the Paris Hippodrome in July 1987.

    'Joshua Tree' lifted the Irish band onto a globe scale at the end of the 80's, with its three standout singles all topping the American Billboard Top-100.

    • Well, at the time it was the fastest selling album ever. So I still don’t think that infamous was a misuse of words.
