It&#8217;s a promo copy that I bought at the store in Penny Hill which was about half a mile from my parents house. I was a bit disappointed when I listened to it. A bit too mellow and Pop sounding. Although it had three big singles &#8220;Where The Streets Have No Name&#8221;, &#8220;I Still Haven&#8217;t Found What I&#8217;m Looking For&#8221; and &#8220;With Or Without You&#8221;, the first three songs on side one, they were never my favorite U2 songs. My favorites on this record are &#8220;Bullet The Blue Sky&#8221;, a live version was on their next record Rattle &amp; Hum, one I sold, &#8220;Trip Through Your Wires&#8221;, &#8220;Exit&#8221; and &#8220;In God&#8217;s Country&#8221; one of my favorite U2 songs. This record won a Grammy for best album in &#8217;88 and is their best selling record and high on some peoples best ever records list. To me this is my least favorite of their records. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is one I bought new in 1987.
