I agree that is priced too high but will probably grab it and a shirt. I love this album and the yellow vinyl appeals to me more than the blue, which I've been on the fence about getting.

Can only think price gouging - REM have just released 4 of their more recent albums on coloured vinyl at £30
Yeah but they are only one vinyl this is a double ,not excusing the price it's way too high but they know certain wealthy fans will pay the exorbitant price.
Would love a more extended release: demo’s from
The pop Tracks mentioned on the sleeve and all other demo’s, early versions, more remixes etc. Zooropa is u2’s best album. U2 in their Prime
Haha...... I remember buying this on cd at the time I put in into my player and with the long intro on zooropa i thought I had a faulty disc
The Good old days
Already have the blue vinyl and don't feel like shelling out AU$155 for a yellow edition but may grab a t-shirt. Really hope some of these tracks get an outing at the Sphere.
Yep, U2 at their absolute prime for sure. Back in the days when they didn't take forever to overthink and overproduce and subsequently ruin an album just to try and make it as commercial as possible. Back when they were exciting, original and challenging. This was the first U2 album I ever bought (on cassette tape). How I miss those days... Cannot believe it's been 30 years.
And yes, this 30 year anniversary is a massive missed opportunity to release some of those demos of early versions of the album tracks, unheard songs, HMTMKMKM, the Bono version of Wanderer and most importantly demos of the songs that would end up on Pop. Surely there's a whole treasure trove of stuff related to this album that could've gone on a bonus disc or two. Now THAT is something I wouldn't have minded spending my hard earned £ on rather than a pointless, overpriced yellow vinyl...
