An REM thread for r.e.m. stuff

At My Most Beautiful (Live)- At My Most Beautiful 3” CD
All the Way to Reno (Live)- KTHX 100.1: Live from the X-Ville City Limits Vol. 3 (2001)
Bittersweet Me (Live)- Indiana's 92.3 WTTS Collector's Edition Vol 3
Leaving New York (Live)- Indiana's 92.3 WTTS Collector's Edition Vol 10

Aw, great... Whole new batch for me to worry about and spend years searching... lol... :rolleyes:

I can help with this: Losing my Religion (Live) - Live from the X Lounge VI (2003) - https://www.sendspace.com/file/0k503k
(it's a FLAC you can turn into MP3 with any of a dozen free programs around)

Thanks for the directions, Buckhead!

celtergeist, sorry, I don't have many live shows. You can have this one, tho:
R.E.M. - Nyon (Switzerland), Paleo Festival, 27 July 2008 (MP3 320kbps)
https://www.sendspace.com/file/g9kjyb
 
Question? I have heard rumors that these exist and contain rare live REM performances. Can anyone shed some light on the subject. Thanks!

Leaving New York (Live)- Indiana's 92.3 WTTS Collector's Edition Vol 10

You can probably erase the last two from the list:
- Bitterweet Me was never played in concert (the "studio" version was mostly recorded at soundcheck, like the majority of the New Adventures In Hi-Fi album, so you might call it "live")
- according to this link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-m...9V8OBPBK/B0012BXV8Y/ref=cm_ciu_images_pl_link, Leaving New York on this particular compilation seems to be the studio version

ALL R.E.M. DVDA EXTRAS

Fun with technicals, if you're so inclined:
- I had no idea of what parameters to use and consulted a "scene" instruction file.
- Encoded with Handbrake directly from DVD streams to MP4
- Video: from MPEG-II to H-264/AVC (3.1, main profile, slow), same-as-original scale size and AR, 720 kbps avg bitrate (2-pass), variable frame rate.
- Audio: considering AC3 is already lossy, I used passthru to preserve the original DVD stream (48Hz stereo 224kbps, all or most). So what you have here is the original audio straight from the DVD. If you make any FLACs from them, they'll be fake FLACs, since AC3 is lossy.
- Around The Sun and Monster seem to have something weird going on on the original DVDAs. They crashed and/or ran out of sync constantly. The videos here are all ok, tho. Go figure. Maybe it's my codec.

Feel free to post the videos on YouTube (please credit me if you do ;)

===================================================================

Green:
- Green promo documentary (begins with the video for "Orange Crush", then the promo, ends with the video for "Stand"): https://www.sendspace.com/file/89fwtb
- Two live videos from Tourfilm ("Turn You Inside-Out" and "World Leader Pretend"): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p26VUu33WZc and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=evF900dvcUo

Out of Time:
- Time Piece promo documentary (includes the video for "Losing My Religion" at the end): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5O7qRC-SAHU

Automatic for the People:
- Video promo documentary: https://www.sendspace.com/file/decdnc

Monster:
- Rough Cut promo documentary: on the DVDA, you can only find 8min50s of the original doc Rough Cut, not the whole thing. It's the part with "I Don't Sleep I Dream", when Michael has a guitar. Rough Cut has never been properly released. Some sources mention it as a bonus of In View (the video companion for the compilation In Time), but it looks like only some bits can be found within the "interviews" part of the disc, never the whole thing. The doc can be found on YouTube, as I posted before: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYG7nNhzpN0
- Three songs from Road Movie: these don't seem to be included in the DVDA, or at least they're nowhere in the VIDEO_TS folder or in any menus. Anyway, here's Road Movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIC8CwVeeWA&list=PLCA5ECBE4AEA17C8B

New Adventures in Hi-Fi:
- NAIHF promo documentary (begins with an excerpt of "Dancing Barefoot"): https://www.sendspace.com/file/5fq5dc

Up:
- Promo with three songs live in studio, never released any other way ("Daysleeper", "Lotus", "At My Most Beautiful"): https://www.sendspace.com/file/poadai

Reveal:
- Reveal promo documentary: https://www.sendspace.com/file/3vukrz
- "I'll Take the Rain" remix video (audio probably in R.E.M.ix, I didn't check): https://www.sendspace.com/file/x73lml

In Time:
- Promo documentary: can't seem to find this one. Is there really a promo for In Time??
- "Bad Day" live in studio (Warehouse Studios, Vancouver, May 10th 2003, multiangle feature -- this is Stipe's angle, first one I ripped): https://www.sendspace.com/file/j3k5n5
- "Bad Day" music video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hyk-Vdd_Qrk

Around the Sun:
- ATS promo documentary: https://www.sendspace.com/file/qxdqyk
- Two songs live from St James church ("Leaving New York" and "Imitation of Life"): https://www.sendspace.com/file/brzegm
- Music videos for "Leaving New York" and "Aftermath": https://www.sendspace.com/file/js002i and https://www.sendspace.com/file/q44ozi
- Two songs live from Perfect Square ("She Just Wants to Be" and "Walk Unafraid"): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhMhUT4BKMM and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAkQKCxghlI



Wow Incredible! Thank you soooo much!

I gathered some info about the WTTS compilations. What I found so far is inconclusive, but point to studio tracks:

- Some of the compilations have only original live material recorded in the station's studios, some have all sorts of mixed stuff. About the latest one (19), the WTTS site says you can only find those versions on their CD and "nowhere else".
- Sources for both vols 3 and 10 list some tracks as "live", others as "acoustic". R.E.M. songs are listed normally, neither like that.
- The annual compilations benefit charities, so we can see R.E.M. involved by donating rights in some way (don't know how that works).
- Both tracks have approximately the same length as the studio versions, according to freedb and Amazon.
- The Timeline doesn't have any mention of possible tapings. It can't be deemed as infallible, but again, those would have been versions released on a CD, not just random obscure shows.

Somewhat inconclusive. But I'd say 90-10 chances of them being the studio versions we already know.

Doing some digging on this one. I will keep you posted.
 
Hello guys.
I read this wonderful thread about 2 months and sadly I didn't have the time to register at this forum to start posting some things here. I don't like Morrissey and Smiths, I found this thread while searching some rare R.E.M. stuff and dammit I really like it! Further, I would like to share several interesting things from my humble collection, such as singles, official and, of course, unofficial live recordings of R.E.M., which is one of my favourites. And most of this stuff is in FLAC, 'cause I really don't like mp3 =)
So, here's my first share:

2001-05-21 - MTV Unplugged, MTV Studios, New York City, NY, USA [TV]

Pt1: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xs4cfahp3...ged,MTVStudios,NewYorkCity,NY,USA[TV].zip.001

02. Electrolite
03. At My Most Beautiful

02. All The Way To Reno (You're Gonna Be A Star) [2nd take]

04. At My Most Beautiful [2nd take]

09. The Great Beyond
10. band intros
11. The One I Love [2nd take]
12. So. Central Rain [2nd take]


Recent official release not contains ALL what have been recorded, so I think this bootleg it doesn't lose its relevance.

Excuse me for my bad english, it's not my native language.

Cheers!

Hey gargumma, much to my embarrassment I never did thank you for uploading these for me, so a belated thank you, it’s very much appreciated... :) and apologies for my tardiness. :o

Question? I have heard rumors that these exist and contain rare live REM performances. Can anyone shed some light on the subject. Thanks!

At My Most Beautiful (Live)- At My Most Beautiful 3” CD

This is the live version of ‘At My Most Beautiful’ from the 3” CD, I don’t have a log file for it, but it was ripped by me in Apple Lossless a few years ago whilst I still had access to an old tray based CD drive.

You're welcome, Klang. All good, even more when you upload such a gem. Thanks!

:)

Have to say, I didn’t think the B-sides of the 3” CD singles were particularly rare or anything. I have the other B-sides too, ripped by me in Apple Lossless, if anyones missing them, in lossless quality, from their collections, post here, and I’ll upload them. :guitar:


Day Sleeper
2. Sad Professor (Live in the studio, Toast, San Francisco, CA)

Lotus
2. Suspicion (live in the studio) - This version is different from the Ealing Studio recording on the "Suspicion" single

Suspicion

Anyone got a decent recording of the 2005 Nurnberg-gig? There's one on archive.org, but that one skips all over the place. Thanks in advance and enjoy the sun, people!

Do you know the date and venue for this version of Losing My Religion?

Sorry, nope, I don't have that info. Best I got is from Wikipedia: "All of the Live In the X Lounge CDs were recorded live at Airwave Recording Studio, Homewood, AL". The Timeline doesn't have anything resembling that recording, though (from 2000-2003) and I can't find any info online. The track sounds like it was recorded in front of a reasonable amount of people, so not just live in studio, but in a small theater or so.
 
I got 23-tracks version of this venue.
2008-07-03 - Main Stage, Festivalpark, Rock Werchter 2008, Werchter, Belgium
Snatched from Dime, probably FM source.
Want it?

Yes, it's lossless, and I disclaim mp3, only flac!
