To coincide with the 30th anniversary of U2’s iconic album The Joshua
Tree, Island Records released a 2017 mix of ‘Red Hill Mining Town’
on limited edition 12” picture disc, featuring the classic photography
of Anton Corbijn in colour. The previously unreleased mix is by Steve
Lillywhite, who produced the band’s critically acclaimed debut, ‘Boy’.
‘Red Hill Mining Town’ is famously “the single that never was”,
originally discussed as the second single from The Joshua Tree but then
put to one side at the last minute in favour of ‘I Still Haven’t Found
What I’m Looking For’. The Joshua Tree went to #1 in the U.K, U.S.,
Ireland and around the world, selling in excess of 25 million albums,
and catapulted Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr “… from
heroes to superstars” (Rolling Stone).
