NME article about The Joshua Tree's classic status

It's a decent read besides some factual errors.

Good to see Running to Stand Still get mentioned several times.

In the fourth picture down, the character on the right doesnt look like he belongs there.     Its almost like that photo is 3/4ths of being truly iconic.    BTW Mattressjedi, that Phil Collins quote is exactly was i was inferring to in one of the other threads on here that you so quickly slammed me on.

Bono was gorgeous during this era, but they have found some of the most uncomplimentary photos of him to accompany this article. Hmmpphhh!  >:(

Some would say the messianic complex started with JT though.

I think that's when it started but I don't think it reached its nadir until the next year with Rattle and Hum.  If you're talking strictly the band, then that's what I think.
If you're talking Bono, ehhh, he's always had that larger than life and huge ego thing going on.
