Rattle and Hum was the follow up to The
Joshua Tree, which had been one of the most successful
albums of the 1980s. But Rattle and Hum was more than an
album, it was a mismash of live material mixed with new studio
songs. It was a double vinyl LP. It was a movie.
It was a book. And to many it was an overload.
But the album was a success. It went to
the top of the charts around the world upon release. It
spawned four successful singles, all of which were backed by new
b-sides. The film played in theatres for weeks, and did
quite respectable for itself. Not a Hollywood blockbuster,
but it did just fine.
