4 free R.E.M shows: (bootleg, blues, house, instrumental)

Don't say I never gave you anything:

These are some vintage R.E.M. shows; admittedly nothing exclusive to my collection if you know where to look on the internet, but nonetheless they are must-have artifacts from a once great band, from they were, indeed, nothing less than tear-wrenchingly great.

The sound quality on all of them is quite good, but the Germany 1985 Rockpalast bootleg deserves special attention. It is a soundboard recording of a legendary show, and R.E.M.'s equivalent of Rank in terms of an audio document capturing the essence of a band at the peak of its powers....it is frenetic, manic, expertly performed...honest to god one of the best shows I have ever had the pleasure of hearing. Albeit many years on.

No worries... Here's some more REM stuff...enjoy:

Here are all the R.E.M b-sides and rarities I have been able to acquire that have not been collected on Dead Letter Office, Eponymous, In Time Disc 2, or And I Feel Fine. I know there are many more out there, and if anyone has any, PLEASE post them.

Also, if anyone can provide info on the recording dates for the "Unknown Origin" tracks, I would be very grateful, as I have not been able to find out for myself.
