Description
Out of Print, 1st pressing of R.E.M. 2-Lp set from 1998. Vinyl and Cover are Near-Mint condition with the insert.
NOTES: Up is R.E.M.'s confrontation with electronica, using keyboards to largely replace their traditional guitars. Given the central role in R.E.M.'s creation myth of a horrified reaction to Stephen Hague's aborted production of Murmur, it's kind of a kick to hear the band sounding like one-time Hague clients OMD on the moody opener "Airportman." Even with the change in instrumental emphasis, Up still sounds like R.E.M. and is their strongest release since Automatic for the People. "Hope," "Why Not Smile" and especially "Daysleeper" rank among the finest songs of the band's career. Although a relative commercial failure, Up was an encouraging sign after two disappointments.
** I will be listing a ton of great Lps and CDs (plus a few odds and ends) over the next few weeks. Lots of Punk, Post Punk, Indie, Psych, Rock, Jazz, Soul etc. I also combine shipping if you buy more than 1 item. **
PAYMENT: I accept Paypal, Checks and other forms of payment that Ebay won't let me list since they own Paypal and want you to use it. Greedy, greedy. International bidders must use paypal or contact me if you want to pay in other forms.
GRADING: I ususally only Use Near-Mint (Like New), Excellent (Close to Near-Mint but maybe a few slight marks on the vinyl or general shelfwear to the cover) and Very Good (don't sell VG records unless they are older or hard to find - some may fall in between VG and Excellent and I'll try to note this. Sometimes I'll play the lp first if I think it may be VG or in between VG and Excellent.
