Extra-Infos: With Extra & Never Rel.tracks
Description:Das vierte Album der Alternative-Rock-Ikonen R.E.M., "Live's Rich Pageant", zeigt die Band als mehr oder weniger fertiges Produkt. Ein Album, das Zuversicht ausstrahlt und den Beat betont. Die Band liefert ihre bisher härtesten Rock ab, darunter das hymnische "Begin the Begin" und das punkige "Just a Touch". Textlich ist dies das Album, auf dem die Band politisch wird. "Fall On Me" ist ein wunderbarer Song über die Auswirkungen des Kapitalismus auf die Umwelt. Die Band klingt sowohl musikalisch als auch textlich zeitgemä�er als auf den Vorgängeralben, was der Platte einen zusätzlichen Kick gibt. Definitiv ein Muss und möglicherweise das wichtigste Album der College-Rock-�ra, was den Durchbruch im Mainstream angeht. - WITH EXTRA & NEVER REL.TRACKS
Fourth album from alternative rock icons, R.E.M, 'Live's Rich Pageant' showcases the band as more or less the finished product. An album that radiates confidence and emphasizes the beat, the band turns in it's hardest rockers to date, including the anthemic "Begin the Begin" and the punky "Just a Touch." Lyrically, this is the album where the band get political. "Fall On Me" is a wonderful song about the effect of capitalism on the environment. The band sounds more contemporary both musically and lyrically than they did on their previous albums, which helps give the record that extra kick. Definitely a must have, and possibly the most important album of the college rock era in terms of breaking it into the mainstream.

One strange feature of the CD is that the track listing on the paper inserts is wrong, and missing two songs. The disc itself has the complete and correct list.
