Notes: | On November 19th, 1992, R.E.M. played a one-off full electric gig at the 40 Watt Club in their hometown of Athens, GA. The show was put on for the benefit of Greenpeace and was taped by a solar-powered mobile recording unit, the plan being to take one track from the recording and contribute it to an all-live compilation CD entitled 'Alternative NRG' (which would feature 15 more tracks by various artists). Before too long a DAT audience recording of the show was put out on bootleg-CD (remember, this was the heyday of CD-bootlegging). If I recall correctly, 'Automatically Live' on the legendary Kiss The Stone imprint (KTS 141) was the first to hit the streets. Countless other discs would follow, the best of which (and the most complete) being 'This Is It' (Red Phantom RPCD 1117). The popularity of the show is hardly surprising, given that the band gave a sterling performance that night and did no other gigging in support of 'Automatic for the People' (the then-current album). To boot, Buck & co were in great spirits, entertaining the homecrowd with amusing in-between banter, AND the available audience recording was remarkably clear. In due time, a soundboard recording of the first song played at the gig (a great funked-up version of Drive) appeared on the aforementioned Greenpeace CD (January 1994). The bulk of the show was later released in the form of bonus tracks on the four CD-singles released to promote the Monster album (three tracks apiece). However, while the songs themselves sound incredible (especially 'Country Feedback', which by late 1992 had not yet been turned into the pompous dirge it became during the 'Monster' tour), the end result did not add up to a complete presentation of the show: apart from the first take of 'Drive', one more song was left off (a not particularly strong version of 'Love Is All Around', the Troggs cover which the band had performed so well in acoustic guise during the promo-tour for 'Out Of Time'), as well as the major part of the great chats inbetween songs. What I'm posting today is my attempt to mix the missing parts & song, retrieved from bootleg (an original silver disc copy of 'This Is It'), into the officially released soundboard recordings (from the original silver CD-EPs & Greenpeace CD), in order to recreate the performance in its entirety in the best possible sound quality. | |||||
