Product Description

Product Description

The author follows the story of R.E.M. from its humble origins in Athens, Georgia, to their status as a leading world-wide act, all the while placing the allure of their appeal in the context of its time and place. Drawing on dozens of interviews with friends, associates and the band members themselves, this is not just the story of one group's rise through cult status, but the story of American rock in the 1980s. This edition brings the band's story right up-to-date, covering the departure of drummer Bill Berry, Michael Stipe's increasing role as a spokesman for humane causes, and the group's music right up to their "Reveal" album.

Just like what a band biography should be... 7 Mar 2002
By Retesh D. Shah - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I've only recently become a fan of REM and I picked up this book to read about the band's origins and early history. Fletcher did a great job with describing the early music scene in Georgia and detailing the birth of REM. He never asked you to learn too many details and tidbits about the comprehensive world of music and never went too deep into the motivations of the songwriting. But the band does give input here and there and the rise and success of the band is very well-documented. I'd like to read Fletcher's take on the 2nd decade of REM. He did that good of a job in this book.

New insights into music I've listened to EVERYDAY 30 +years 3 April 2012
By Reckoning - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase
Deepened my listening experience of REM--and I've listened to them EVERYDAY for over 30 years. My copy of this book has fallen apart, as I go back to it time and again. I suggest you read the chapters pertaining to each album in turn, listening to it with new ears.

Thank you Mr. Gray. Hope to see an updated version now the band has disolved.
