1001 Albums Summary

I've never been an R.E.M. fan, so this wasn't a great listen. The stand-out here was 'Catapult', which I actually went back at the end and played again. The rest may have been good for '83, but as a first time listen I didn't hear anything that changed my opinion of the band. Average at best.

Track Four, Happy Day, sounds like Longlegs singing. I dig it, but track Five is DEFINITELY Longlegs. Psycho Killer has been a favorite of mine for years, so kind of sad to see the rest of the album is just pretty okay.
