U2 - Achtung Baby (20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition) CD

"Achtung Baby" was the smashing 7th studio album released back in 1991 from the ultimate global Rock band U2. This album marked a shift in the group's direction, away from the highly criticised 1988 album "Rattle and Hum", which dwindled in the global market due to its focus on American Roots. With the help from legendary producers Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois, "Achtung Baby" quite simply put U2 back into the running for the Greatest Rock Band in the World. The album includes some of the band's timeless classics including the beautiful ballad "One", the powerfully energetic "Even Better Than the Real Thing" and the 'Edge' guitar-wrenching "Mysterious Ways".

The impact of "Achtung Baby" has made it one of the most influential rock albums of all time, and the most successful U2 album to date. To celebrate this success, Mercury Records is releasing this 20th Anniversary Remastered Deluxe Edition which includes a second disc full of B-Sides and previously unreleased songs from the Achtung Baby sessions.
