| | My Visit to U2's Joshua Tree |
| | I didn't even begin to look for a fallen tree until I found the exact angle of the mountain range that appears in the photos on the album sleeve. | | | To me, U2's tree symbolized a spirit captured within the music -- the thoughtful lyrics, the Edge's grand textures, the passionate vocals, the thumping beat of the percussion. | | | However, The Tree had begun to seriously sag, mostly due to its sheer size. |

| | Inside U2 The Joshua Tree album |
| | In the case of the Joshua Tree, however, 7 of the songs left off the album were released as via b-sides of the first three singles. | | | He also felt that their pared down version of "The Joshua Tree" was almost "too much" for one listen as it was released. | | | Once I began to listen to The Joshua Tree with my "restored" track listing, I find that I cannot listen to it any other way. |

| | Rolling Stone : The Joshua Tree : Review |
| | That's not to say that this record is either a flagrantly commercial move or another Born in the U.S.A. The Joshua Tree is U2's most varied, subtle and accessible album, although it doesn't contain any sure-fire smash hits. | | | The title befits a record that concerns itself with resilience in the face of utter social and political desolation, a record steeped in religious imagery. | | | But this is not a band to surrender to defeatism. |

| | Having just listened to this CD for the bizillionth time last night, I am once against struck by the enduring beauty and meaning of the songs on "The Joshua Tree." This is, without a doubt, one of the best and most important pop recordings to come out of the 80's. | | | I am not a big fan of U2 but I like The Joshua tree which was amongst the finest albums to come out of the eighties.Most of the songs are good,especially WHERE THE STREETS HAVE NO NAME and WI OR WITHOUT YOU.This is one album which should be present in your collection.recommended. | | | Perhaps more than any of their other albums, "The Joshua Tree" captures the great themes of U2's music. |

| | This unique species grows abundantly at Joshua Tree National Park in California and Joshua Forest Parkway in Western Arizona. | | | The trees grow strongly, for example, along US 93 in Arizona; this road is called the Joshua Forest Parkway and seems to have even more Joshuas than the National Park, intermingled with that other distinctive symbol of the Southwest, the saguaro. | | | Massive formations of rocks cling together like packs of coyotes, calling rock climbers from around the world to scale their heights. |

| | The best approach, if applicable, is the westward drive along CA 62 from Parker in Arizona, 108 miles away. | | | This is not a place just to drive past; visitors should explore for a while away from the roads - climb some rocks or walk amongst the trees and cacti, but most of all spend a night here and watch the sun set. | | | In addition to the rocks and trees, the park also has hiking trails, 4WD routes, several historic sites and five oases where California fan palm trees grow in their natural surroundings. |
