With over 25 million copies sold worldwide, U2’s The Joshua Tree is one of the best-selling albums of all time. Not bad for an album that Bono nearly pulled from the presses! Inspired by their U.S. tours in the early 80s, the band became obsessed with the idea of a mythical America. These ideas combined with influences from classic American rock like Bob Dylan and Van Morrison (who consulted on the album) gave rise to a sound that defined U2 for a whole generation of fans around the world. With or Without You, Where the Streets Have No Name, I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For – these are the songs that Classic Albums Live will bring to life with the best Canadian musicians in the business, plus more hits from this Irish supergroup.
