There's another set of much clearer (well, sort of) beach clips recorded in 2006, which included early sounds of Window in the Skies.

Because I have the original, but i'd like to sse what the new one sounds like should I buy it ?

Also depends on which system you're listening. A simple radio with a cd-player won't give much difference, I think. But it is way better, trust me..

it is the remastered version of the Joshua Tree, and if you get the deluxe version, it is completely worth it. Besides, it's U2.....should it really be a question?

i got it the day it came out

so to get this back on topic, lately, and as far as I know all together, only Lanois has been vocal about the sessions. How much is Eno really involved in this one? I haven't heard too many reports of him at the studio (albeit i haven't been paying too much attention) but it seems that Lanois has really been the one dishing out the info etc. Just haven't heard much about Eno's presence/influence on the sessions, aside from Morocco. converse...
