R.E.M. The Best of the I.R.S. Years 1982-1987 And I Feel Fine...
thread if ya want Bill Berry to Play With REM..... another |
How did I know you be one of the 1st to answer this thread?

The collection is pretty useless to me, since I have every song, including probably everything off the bonus disc. Definitely a great starting point for someone to get acquainted with the band.
I transferred this for Atari 2600, but thought i'd share with other REM fans too: REM 4/24/82 Merlyns, Madison WI Soundboard http://www.sendspace.com/file/k57qaq |

From their newsletter.......
JACKNIFE LEE TO PRODUCE R.E.M.'S NEXT RECORD REMHQ is very pleased to announce that R.E.M. and two-time Grammy Award winning producer Jacknife Lee will work together on the band's next record. The band and Lee plan to begin recording this spring. Lee's impressive production resumé includes work with U2 on"How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb," for which he received two Grammys, Snow Patrol's last two records, "Final Straw" and "Eyes Open," and Bloc Party's highly acclaimed "A Weekend In The City." Mike Mills of R.E.M. says that he and bandmembers Peter Buck and Michael Stipe are very excited about getting back to work with Lee in the driver's seat: "We are psyched to work with Jacknife Lee. We've got a great batch of new songs, and can't wait to put them down." Lee, based in the UK, also expressed his enthusiasm for working with R.E.M.: “There is no model for REM,” says Jacknife. “Consistently one of the Great Bands, if not the greatest. They push themselves further than most, doing every time what is the goal for any artist - explore. These new songs are some of their most exciting and visceral yet.” Lee's production credits also include records by Aqualung, The Hives, The Editors and Kasabian. For more information about Jacknife Lee, please visit Big Life Artists' web site and his myspace page. ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME TV SCHEDULE The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony will be broadcast live from the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel on VH1 Classic and MHD (MTV's new high-definition channel) on March 12, 2007, beginning at 8:30pm ET. AOL will feature the induction on demand commencing on March 13th. The full ceremony will air again on VH1 Classic and MHD on Friday, March 16th. An edited version will air in rotation on VH1, VH1 Classic and MHD beginning on Saturday, March 17th. Be sure to tune in and watch R.E.M.'s performance and induction. Bill, Peter, Mike, and Michael will be inducted alongside Patti Smith, Van Halen, Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, and The Ronettes. If you're in the Athens area, please be sure to stop by the Melting Point where our friends at Athensmusic.net are throwing a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame viewing party. The night gets started at 6:30pm and promises to be a lot of fun. FINEST WORKSONGS CD READY FOR PRE-ORDER Athensmusic.net is now taking pre-orders for "Finest Worksongs: Athens Bands Play The Music of R.E.M." The CD commemorates the amazing tribute to R.E.M. which took place on September 12, 2006. On that night seven Athens bands--Claire Campbell, Tin Cup Prophette, Modern Skirts, Bain Mattox, The Observatory, Patterson Hood, and Five Eight--played R.E.M. songs at the 40 Watt Club. The show was held in conjunction with R.E.M.'s release of "And I Feel FineÖThe Best of The IRS Years" and the band's induction into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame that same weekend. Net proceeds from the Finest Worksongs release will benefit Community Connection of Northeast Georgia and Family Connection/Communities in Schools, the two organizations who were beneficiaries of the nearly $13,000 raised on September 12, 2006. Finest Worksongs is being released by Iron Horse Records, an Athens, GA-based record label under the auspices of athensmusic.net that specializes in music from its hometown. The opening track is performed by Liz Durrett, who was part of the original lineup but, due to illness, had to cancel at the last minute. Although Liz was unable to perform that night, she later recorded The One I Love especially for the CD. For pre-order details, please visit http://www.athensmusic.net/ TRACK LISTING 1.

R.E.M. TO PLAY FIVE NIGHTS IN DUBLIN!
We are very pleased to announce that R.E.M. will perform a Live Rehearsal at the famous Olympia Theatre in Dublin, Ireland, on the following FIVE nights this summer: June 30th July 1st July 3rd July 4th July 5th As previously announced on remhq.com, R.E.M. begins work on their next record later this spring with producer Jacknife Lee who has produced records for U2, Snow Patrol, and Bloc Party. The five shows in Dublin will showcase songs from these spring recording sessions and, as such, will be a rare opportunity to hear songs before they are released on record. The Olympia dates are the only scheduled shows for R.E.M. in 2007. TICKETS ARE NOW ON SALE We are pleased to give you an early opportunity to purchase tickets before they go on sale to the general public at the Olympia Theatre Box Office tomorrow morning at 9:00AM.* Please bear in mind that tickets are expected to sell swiftly so WE ENCOURAGE YOU TO ACT NOW. TICKET LIMITS PER MEMBER: A TOTAL of 4 tickets may be purchased through this offer. No more than two tickets may be purchased per night in reaching the total allotment of 4. Single tickets may also be purchased. To go to the R.E.M. TICKET PAGE, please click here. GOOD LUCK! *Box office tickets are subject to the same ticketing structure as on-line tickets. Tickets purchased from the box office will be face value (€50). They are not subject to booking fees. Cash purchase only. |
 On October 16th, R.E.M. will release its first ever live CD/DVD in a career that has spanned 27 remarkable years. The dual package, titled R.E.M. Live , features 22 songs from the group's memorable performance at the Point Theatre in Dublin on February 27th, 2005. R.E.M. Live was filmed by acclaimed director Blue Leach (Depeche Mode, Snow Patrol) who accompanied R.E.M. on their 116-date tour into 33 countries in support of Around The Sun . Just two years earlier, Leach's deft camera work and artistic video mix during R.E.M.'s Manchester Move Festival performance made a strong impression on the band. Here, Leach skillfully brings together his signature techniques to capture R.E.M. doing what they do best at one of the most celebrated venues on their 2005 worldwide tour. R.E.M. Live features songs spanning the band's many studio albums, including rare performances of "I Took Your Name" from 1994's Monster and "Ascent of Man" from the band's most recent studio album Around The Sun, as well as the singles �(Don't Go Back To) Rockville,� (featuring bassist Mike Mills on lead vocals) from 1984's Reckoning , "The Great Beyond" from the Man on the Moon soundtrack, "Imitation of Life" from 2001's Reveal , and the previously unreleased crowd-pleaser "I'm Gonna DJ." R.E.M. Live is not to be confused with R.E.M.'s recent "non-shows" at the Olympia Theatre in Dublin (June 30th-July 5th 2007). The actual show with actual songs actually did happen in February 2005, and it is sheer coincidence that it took place in Dublin other than the fact that when R.E.M. is in Dublin, great things seem to happen. http://www.remdublin.com/ Fucking right.....trailer is in the above link. |
Hell yeah, I've been seeing all this Husker Du talk and I was wondering when we were going to hit on some R.E.M. talk. I used to be real into them a couple years ago and then I didn't listen to them for a while. But I just saw the "Seven Ages of Rock" thing and I've been dusting off all my R.E.M. records. God, I love "The One I Love."

Cool.
