REM - 39 Songs Live At The Olympia [2009] (2 x CD's)




R.E.M.

REM - 39 Songs Live At The Olympia [2009] (2 x CD's)


2009 two CD live set featuring 39 songs from their acclaimed 2007 working rehearsals in Dublin, Ireland. R.E.M. set up camp at the venerable Olympia Theatre in Ireland's capital city and tested new material over five nights before passionate, capacity crowds. This live album was produced by Dublin native Jacknife Lee who, along with R.E.M., co-produced Accelerate, the album which emerged from these shows.

REM fans have waited a long time for a live album. This album hits the mark. The set list is outstanding- highlights for me include "Sitting Still" (from Murmur), Maps and Legends" (Fables of the Reconstruction), "These Days" (Lifes Rich Pagent) and "Living Well is the Best Revenge" from Accelerate. Stipe is in good voice, and the pre-song banter shorter and funnier than usual. Buck's guitar is full of energy and bite. Mike Mills really shines here, with his bass lines driving the songs along and his melodic backing vocals enriching many of the songs. If this live collection was thank-you to long time fans, guys- you are welcome! (Amazon)
