Description
STUNNING 180 GRAM VINYL RELEASE OF THIS GREAT REM LIVE PERFORMANCE
1000 ONLY LIMITED EDITION
This double features the full show played at the Orlando Arena in Florida on 30th April 1989, also the subject of a live FM broadcast.
The dynamic set played by the group that night featured 6 of the songs from Green, plus a heady mix of oldies from their previous 5 records, albeit with emphasis on 87s Document and the previous years Lifes Rich Pageant.
Completing the set with a couple of covers from fellow Athens collective Pylon, whose Crazy had already been featured as b-side to REM s Driver 8 single in 85, plus Academy Flight Song a live favourite for the band taken from the back catalogue of Boston s Mission Of Burma.
All told, this legendary broadcast finds REM at the point in their career when huge worldwide success was beckoning, but when the group always firmly grounded had full control of exactly where they were and where they were going.
