Time Magazine put U2 on its cover in April 1987, proclaiming them “Rock’s Hottest Ticket” and the 12 months that followed saw U2 create indelible moments including the traffic-stopping Grammy Award-winning Where The Streets Have No Name video on the roof of a Los Angeles liquor store, and go on to win a BRIT Award and two Grammys – including Album of the Year – their first of 22 received to date as well as a triumphant return home for four unforgettable shows in Belfast, Dublin and Cork in the summer of 1987.

The 20th Anniversary reissue of The Joshua Tree cleared the vaults of the B-sides, outtakes, and stray songs U2 released in the wake of the album's 1987 release, so the 30th Anniversary Edition doesn't pack the same kind of revelation as its predecessor. Released to universal acclaim on Maand featuring hit singles With Or Without You, I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For and Where The Streets Have No Name, The Joshua Tree went to number 1 in the U.K, U.S., Ireland and around the world, selling in excess of 25 million albums, and catapulting Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr “… from heroes to superstars” (Rolling Stone). Never before have U2's big messages sounded so direct and personal. The Super Deluxe box sets also include a book of photographs by The Edge and a folio of eight Anton Corbijn color prints from 1987. Included on the extra discs are a concert from The Joshua Tree Tour from Madison Square Garden, a disc of remixes and a disc of b-sides and outtakes. The Joshua Tree: 30th Anniversary Edition will be released on June 2 in single CD, 2 CD, 4 CD, single Vinyl, 7-LP Vinyl, album only digital, album & MSG digital and album, MSG & rarities digital. This 30th-anniversary Super Deluxe set includes new remixes, b-sides, and a stunning live set from Madison Square Garden in 1987. U2 had previously said that they had big plans for the 30th anniversary for The Joshua Tree which would include a tour and a new version of the album and, last Thursday, they made details known on the multi-disc set. The album effortlessly combines U2’s initial post-punk energy with their immersion into the American mainstream.
