35th anniversary! Limited Wine Colored edition. Wow! This is one of the very first albums I ever bought. There is a 16 page booklet with the lyrics inside. Perfect copy, as close to MINT as it gets, without a single ding or crease on the sleeve. No tears on the shrink-wrap either. I should describe it as MINT but I avoid this grade in records. Will ship in bulletproof packaging. More colored U2 Albums will be listed next. Every scan represents the actual copy I am selling. This is a non-smoking home and all records are enjoying my special care. If you need more scans or any other information please ask me. U.S. shipping only for records. It’s hard enough to ship domestically. Cannot risk shipping records internationally.

The Unforgettable Fire is the fourth studio album by Irish rock band U2. It was produced by Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois, and released on 1 October 1984 by Island Records. The band wanted to pursue a new musical direction following the harder-hitting rock of their previous album, War (1983). As a result, they employed Eno and Lanois to produce and assist in their experimentation with a more ambient and abstract sound. The resulting change in direction was at the time the band's most dramatic. The album's title is a reference to "The Unforgettable Fire", an art exhibit about the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.

Recording began in May 1984 at Slane Castle, where the band lived, wrote, and recorded to find new inspiration. The album was completed in August 1984 at Windmill Lane Studios. It features atmospheric sounds and lyrics that lead vocalist Bono describes as "sketches". "Pride (In the Name of Love)" and "MLK" are lyrical tributes to Martin Luther King Jr.

The Unforgettable Fire received generally favourable reviews from critics and produced the band's biggest hit at the time, "Pride (In the Name of Love)", as well as the live favourite "Bad", a song about heroin addiction. A 25th anniversary edition of the album was released in October 2009.

Many rare items are available and more will be listed in a weekly basis. Please enjoy the store because you will have a show of extremely collectible Steelbooks, or other rare Slipcover editions, Records and occasionally other products.

Domestic Shipping

In the USA shipping varies upon location. I will only ship using USPS but you get to choose the method of shipping: Media Mail, or USPS Priority which is the safest and fastest way to ship. You will be able through the eBay calculator to estimate your exact shipping cost. That’s unless I have a free shipping discount promotion. In case you buy more than 1 item, please request an invoice because E-bay cannot calculate shipping costs in multiple purchases.

International Shipping

I will only ship to the following countries: European Union, England, Canada and South Korea using USPS First Class for packages up to 4 pounds, or USPS Priority if the weight is higher than 4 pounds. I will always ship in a box with bubble packaging. You will be able through the eBay calculator to estimate your exact shipping cost. Again, in case you buy more than 1 item, please request an invoice because E-bay cannot calculate shipping costs in multiple purchases.

Please make the payment within 3 business days or the 4th day, E-bay will take the responsibility directly to contact you for your non-payment bid. 

Returns are accepted if the item is new, as it was shipped to the buyer and there will be a full refund in case of wrongfully described or damaged during transit. On all other cases, I reserve the right to deny a return or negotiate the terms. I only sell Brand New Factory sealed & Mint items and I will always provide every single flaw I can detect. No returns are accepted in international transactions.
