Item is new complete with OBI. in stock and ready to ship immediately upon cleared paymentReview (Thanks to Dare)This is the ultimate edition of "Joshua Tree". Yes, it's not cheap but who cares as long as it makes you happy? And I was happy indeed as soon as I got my hands on this delux box (the box being nice and sturdy, too). The album itself doesn't need an introduction. I guess most of the people reading this already have it. It is still worth buying the remastered version of the album though because it does sound great. Speaking of the bonus CD, most of these songs have already been released in one form or another - although it seems like they got cleaned up a little for this release, too ("Silver And Gold" definitely sounds more clear and crisp than any other version I heard). Only the last 5 songs on the bonus CD were actually new to me. "Beautiful Ghost" is a somewhat moody instrumental/spoken word composition. "Wave of Sorrow (Birdland)" is a pretty decent song, I can easily see it on the album itself. "Desert Of Our Love" is a more lighthearted, sorta-raggae song (yeah, I know it's not raggae, it just feels like it). "Rise Up" is OK to me. "Drunk Chicken/America" is another instrumental/spoken word meditation based on Allen Ginsberg's poem "America". My overall impression of the CDs: worth buying for the sound quality, the "new" songs "Birdland" and "Desert of Our Love" are worth a listen. The DVD includes the July 4th, 1987 concert at Hippodrome de Vincennes, Paris, France, "Outside, it's America" documentary and "With Or Without You" (alternative take) and ""Red Hill MiningTown" videos.The concert is as good as any other Joshua Tree stadium concert gets, the video and audio quality are just fine (not Dolby, true, but definitel ybetter than your average bootleg VHS to DVD transfer - after all, it`s a bonus DVD, not a separate DVD release, so it's OK, I was quite satisfied). Some people are surprised that there is no "Where The Streets Have No Name" in the concert - well, that's because, believe it or not, it wasn't played that day - which makes it one of the "noncanonical" Joshua Tree concerts (most of the Joshue Tree concerts started with the song). The DVD contains pretty much the whole concert except for a couple of cover songs U2 played that night. "Outside, it's America" is sort of a band home video while on Joshua Tree in the US. I guess it was some of the "Rattle and Hum" footage which didn't make the cut. The documentary is great for U2 fans - though, it may be not as exciting for casual listeners of the band. Among the scenes in the documentary are shooting and the canonical versions "Where The Streets Have No Name" and "I Still Haven't Found" videos as well as the rare "In God's Country" and "Spanish Eyes" videos, plus some scenes from the road: flying, buyng cowboy boots and hats, shooting for the "Time" cover, rehearsals and playing some americana in what looks like a pub in Houston, Texas. Now, it's not in the main menue but if you fiddle with your DVD player remote you can access an unannounced bonus: The Dalton Brothers support performance in Los Angeles on November 18th, 1987. Who the heck are The Dalton Brothers, you ask? Why, Alton, Luke, Duke and Betty Dalton? It's a prank U2 played in some of their concerts: they dressed up in silly wigs, cowboy gear and dark glasses - Adam wearing a skirt, of course! - and pretended to be their own support band. The video/audio quility is not great, but it's still such a nice surprise for the fans of the band. The box also contains a nice glossy hardcover book with band members', Daniel Lanois, Brian Eno etc. thoughts on the album, song lyrics (some of them handwritten by Bono) and some lesser-known photos and 5 more photo prints, which I think was a nice touch for this kind of edition. To sum up: this edition is a must have for U2 fans.
