Seller's Notes: Import

Collector Notes: Lifes Rich Pageant, R.E.M.'s fourth album from 1986, was recorded with producer Don Gehman in Indiana and turned the band's sound up and outward. Michael Stipe's voice comes forward on Begin The Begin and Fall On Me, a song about pollution, Cuyahoga and The Flowers Of Guatemala dig into American history and politics, and Mike Mills sings their cover of Superman to close it. An I.R.S. disc made in Japan, with the JVC code on the label and spine. Disc is in excellent (EX) condition, shows a few visible marks, but does not affect play. Booklet shows 2 deep dents on the right side from the plastic holders.

Curated by Collectors, for Collectors. Backed by 20+ years and 25,000+ sales with 100% positive feedback. Every pressing is verified before it ships.
