From the ‘Out Of Time’ period, the forever fraught ‘Country Feedback’ makes for a 2001 highlight – it’s said to be Stipe’s personal favourite from his band’s catalogue. Rare Double Vinyl, 2 x LP - R.E.M / REM - Unplugged 2001 - EU Version, Rock, Very Good Condition Only 1 LP release in 2014, and only UK or US print Watch. The 1991 show features Berry, Buck, Mills & Stipe with Peter Holsapple with mandolins and guitars all bright and shiny and with 'Stand' and some others hit songs not included this is not a 'Greatest Hits' show but career-spanning bunch of songs from 1980-1991 that are just.

Perhaps surprisingly there’s no ‘Everybody Hurts’, and only one ‘Automatic For The People’ number makes an appearance, ‘Find The River’. This collection captures two MTV Unplugged shows from 19. Frontman Michael Stipe’s voice has deepened a little in the intervening years, which makes for a sharper take on ‘Losing My Religion’, the only song to appear in both sets. Originally released for the first time on vinyl as a 4LP set on Record Store Day 2014 (which now trades for 200 on the secondary market), the highly in-demand REM Unplugged sessions are now available as TWO SEPARATE ( Unplugged 1991 and Unplugged 2001) double vinyl releases. ‘Perfect Circle’, even 31 years since its release on debut album ‘Murmur’ ( Spotlight feature) and exclusively acoustically framed, retains every moment of its quiet power.Ģ001’s set includes the gorgeous ‘Daysleeper’ and ‘At My Most Beautiful’, both from 1998’s sometimes underappreciated ‘Up’ LP. Auxiliary cohort Peter Holsapple further colors the set on additional guitar and organ. But there’s space, too, for some older, some might say more affecting cuts. Listen to Unplugged 1991/2001: The Complete Sessions on Spotify. Unlike their second Unplugged appearance in 2001, the 1991 show features the original lineup with Bill Berry on congas along with Peter Buck 's guitar and mandolin playing, Mike Mills ' acoustic bass and tenor vocals, and Michael Stipe 's rich, thoughtful drawl.
