Chapter 5 - The Unforgettable Fire U2-Y

    • Music

As U2 forge a hugely successful creative-partnership with production duo Brian Eno and Daniel Lanois on The Unforgettable Fire, the sleeve for the fourth LP brings a set of challenges.
The result is a much-loved album cover created in the 11th hour, bringing along with it some controversy and lessons learned.
We also discover how The Unforgettable Fire would lay the foundations for what would be their biggest breakthrough record (The Joshua Tree), and how some confusion amongst printers as to what colour 'magenta' actually was.
As big a record as The UF was, it ultimately was still the calm before the storm.
