R.E.M - R.E.M MIXTAPE (FLAC EX Version)

Hello and Welcome Back... I First Made this Mixtape Back in the Late 90s and over the years, I have added various songs. I Haven't posted any R.E.M albums on this site as they tend to have 1 or 2 or 3 good tracks and the rest of the album is a bit hit & miss... So, I Made My Own.. Enjoy (and no, its not a 'Best Of', these are songs that i like)

Released in 2022, 'R.E.M. Mixtape' is a album of various tracks over the years that have caught my attention. As stated above, the original tape (TDK SA60 Audio Tape) was recorded by myself as the 'Best Of' albums missed the songs i liked or i went for too long...

I have Re-Recorded this album using various sources including 'Video Versions' which sometimes have little bits added and tend to sound more natural.

The album on offer is the 2022 Remastered Version using 24bit recordings, then into a FLAC EXpanded Format recording..

01. The Great Beyond
02. Imitation Of Life (Video Version)
03. Man On The Moon (Video Version)
