Buying REM

<< < (5/5)

Thrillho:
I'm listening to the Singles Collected compilation I have that's exclusively from their IRS days, and there's some really good stuff on it but also a lot I'm really unenthused about, including a couple of covers they did.

But the 'other mix' of 'Finest Worksong,' with those horns on it? That's fucking magnificent, I prefer it to the original.

tricia kidd:

If you send me your address I'll send you a copy of this.
My 1st band did track 6.

Thrillho:
I got Lifes Rich Pageant. It has made virtually zero impression on me.

I also got Murmur... and holy fuck this record is amazing. Very odd sound it's got, too, but then I'm sure you all already knew that.
