PopHeart
is an EP released in 1997. It features four live tracks from the group's PopMart Tour, three of which were from the tour's
first European date in Rotterdam.
Half
of the songs are from the band's latest release at the time, Pop, and the other half are from The Joshua Tree. The two albums
were released ten years apart, and this release is something of a retrospective in that regard.
Drummer
Larry Mullen, Jr. plays the recognizable drum beat from "Sunday Bloody Sunday" during the middle eight of "Please" (both songs
concern the Troubles in Northern Ireland). The performance
of "Where the Streets Have No Name" has been modernized with a much faster guitar lead and an extended outro. "Staring at
the Sun" appears as a stripped down acoustic version.
It
was released as an EP in most regions except the US, where
its tracks were released as part of the "Please" single. It is no longer in print.
