The MJ Show #78 (U2 - Rattle And Hum)
Rattle And Hum was the name of an album as well as a video release done by U2 in 1988.
The album, which was made following the band's 1987 Joshua Tree Tour, is a mix of live recordings, covers, and new songs. To a greater extent than their previous album, The Joshua Tree, the band explores roots rock, and incorporates elements of blues-rock, folk rock, and country. The accompanying documentary film documents the band's Joshua Tree Tour of the United States and the band's experiences with American music.
This was in my opinion U2's best period. I do love a lot of their other songs as well but this entire album and The Joshua Tree before that...to me...that was U2 at it's best!
