Sounded pretty good to me. 'Blue' really recalls 'Country Feedback' mixed with 'E-bow'. The only track that I didn't really dig was 'Everyday is yours to win'. Might get better with time, but it gave me Around the Sun flashbacks.

Link NPR is having a listening party on Tuesday (3/1) and they'll be streaming the album starting Wednesday. Also, 'Chorus and the Ring' is the best song off Reveal.

I usually buy mp3, but for certain things like the remastered Beatles or Kraftwerk, I go with the CD. Probably will get the new R.E.M. on cd.

Sounds good so far. The guy who reviewed every R.E.M. song on his blog has some info on the songs not heard in the trailer. Link FYI- Song reviews and Stipe answering fan questions about songs here

Return to Oz

This should be pretty good. Lots of videos from this have been floating around online. It will be nice to have a high quality copy. Details at http://www.remdublin.com/ On October 26th, R.E.M. will release R.E.M. LIVE AT THE OLYMPIA, a two-CD set featuring 39 songs from the band's acclaimed 2007 working rehearsals in Dublin, Ireland.

I like Father to a Sister of Thought by Pavement with Doug Easley (I think) on pedal steel.

"Beware" I just got this yesterday and I thinks it's pretty strong. Anyone else pick it up? Here's a nice piece about him from the New Yorker: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2009/01...5fa_fact_sanneh

Bro, I just hope they rattle their dags and get the album released. Cheers.

I would also agree. My favorite versions are the ones from the YHF tour. The first Wilco show I attended had an awesome Sunken Treasure--->Not for the Season transition.

That has occurred to me on more than one occasion.

Helter Skelter- the Beatles Also very good.
