R.E.M. Chronic Town, RARE, 1982 IRS Records, Vinyl EP.


This was R.E.M.'s debut EP, coming soon after the release of their hugely popular college radio hit single "Radio Free Europe".

It was then overshadowed by the release of their full debut album "Murmur", soon afterward.

This EP features the following tracks:


Track listing


"Wolves, Lower" – 4:10.
"Gardening at Night" – 3:29.
"Carnival of Sorts (Box Cars)" – 3:54.
"1,000,000" – 3:06.
"Stumble" – 5:40.

None of these great songs were included on 'Murmur" and the EP, still loved by fans, slipped into vinyl obscurity, to be revived later on as an add on to deluxe re-releases.


The album and sleeve, including the original plastic IRS branded inner sleeve are in very good condition and would be a nice addition to any R.E.M.   fan's collection! 😎
