The Joshua Tree is a superb mix of big hitting anthems and the more ballady tunes. (1 more)
Every track offers something different, but come together creating this magic album from U2.
This album is now 30 years old!

Absolutely love
I found this album on Spotify through a recommendation and I love it. It's easy to listen to no matter what you're doing, it's"kid" friendly language wise, and is intelligently put together.

Rolling Stone's 34th greatest album of all time
Decent 70s rock album from Dylan's backing band, notably mainly for the smash hits "The Weight" and "This Wheel's on Fire" (subsequently used as the theme to Absolutely Fabulous).

Rolling Stone's 15th greatest album of all time
Brilliant psychedelic rock album, including the familiar (for me thanks to Wayne's World) Foxy Lady and Fire, and also the superb prog-rock of 3rd Stone from the Sun.

Rolling Stone's 481st greatest album of all time (2020)
This was a decent soft indie album, but nothing really stood out for me. I don't personally like Stuart Murdoch's voice but most of the songs were ok.

Rolling Stone's 344th greatest album of all time
A solid concept album, yet a hard listen at times, documenting as it does, a turbulent relationship dealing with drug addiction, domestic violence, and children being taken into care.

Rolling Stone's 216th greatest album of all time (455th in the 2020 list)
Very influential early rock and roll album. Very interesting how he brought Afro-Caribbean influences in the rhythm of a lot of the songs.

Rolling Stone's 262nd greatest album of all time
Mediocre American rock album, I have to say they were really missing Neil Young at this stage. The songs are all rather dirgey and forgettable with no real character.

Rolling Stone's 430th greatest album of all time
Quite good modern Mersey-beat sound. I was only familiar with the song "A-Punk", which is quite a different sound to most of the rest of the album.

Rolling Stone's 425th greatest album of all time
A little more towards the country end of the blues spectrum than I would like but a decent album from the former Byrds member, sadly released after his death.
