SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 4:53 Min.
It’s the sixth track off U2’s seminal 1987 album, The Joshua Tree.
REVIEW:
Overshadowed by the album’s hit tracks: “Where the Streets Have No Name,” “Without Or Without You,” and “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For,” this tune is possibly The Joshua Tree’s best filler track. At a minimum, even if the song isn’t radio-friendly, it possesses that distinctive U2 sound to enhance an intriguing set of lyrics. For those listeners downloading The Joshua Tree, “Red Hill Mining Town” is a track worth checking out.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 7 Stars
