The Unforgettable Fire
Released nearly 35 years ago in October 1984, The Unforgettable Fire is the fourth studio album from U2. Recorded at Slane Castle and Windmill Lane Studios in Ireland, it was the first U2 album to be produced by Brian Eno and
Daniel Lanois. The album's lead single "
Pride (In The Name Of Love)" not only delivered the band its biggest hit at that time, the song has become the most frequently played live number in the U2 repertoire. A staple of best album lists and essays by fans, critics and fellow artists, The Unforgettable Fire is hailed as U2's first sonic reinvention and remains among the band's most beloved works with classic cuts such as "Bad," "A Sort of Homecoming" and the title track.
Remastered and pressed on 180g limited-edition wine-colored vinyl, to match the color of album's iconic artwork.
