Monster is a great record!Back then people or should I say 'critics' were not ready dor this kind of sound from them.But every track is great,had this album been realesed in 2017 it would be a critical darling.
loved this, thanks....it was worth it just to see Let Me In being rehearsed....I have always liked REM, I enjoyed the 90s as much as or more than the 80s REM....weird, I went to see a band called the Suburbs in a small club in a suburban mall south of San Francisco, this was the early 80s...then, like 15 years later, my pal told me that we had seem REM, I said wtf?....apparently they opened the show that night, pre Murmur...
How the west was won is their best album for me. Also I saw an interview the four of them did for their induction to I don’t know which hall of fame, but Bill speaks about him leaving the band and it’s very emotional.
One of the most beautiful renditions of Wichita Lineman I've ever heard. Reminded me of my love for Glen Campbell in my early days.
Thank you Frank for showing us this great
documentary of R.E.M. I saw them in 1995 in Milton Keynes and so
this brings back good memories. X
Lyndsey Cohen I saw them in 95 in Mountain View CA with that green shirt!
Monster was my first R.E.M. purchase...thus it remains my favorite....
its taken me 20 years or whatever but it turns out monster is amazing
however i find it annoying that its b& w. like video b& w. you know they had mad budget to at least do film (i.e.tourfilm) but hey.

Finally proof Stipe didn't know the lyrics!
My first concert was R.E.M., and my first tour from them was the Monster tour. Both changed my life.

WOW
Love that limo driver! Bill Murray helps with the SNL attire??? This is an amazing documentary.
Thank you.
Thanks for sharing! Brings back a lot of cool memories.
Stipe is the McCartney of REM.👐
33:00 Bill Murray: R.E.M. Wardrobe consultant
Funny no mention of Peter Garrett when they were looking for bald guys.
They lost more than they gained when Bill left
Massive loss not only to the songwriting process but the ability to edit (what sounds great/what doesn't)
As far as music goes, we'll never know what difference it might have made. They still made great music as usual.
@@eeemaitch they were already in decline, berry leaving sped it up

Press interviews must be excruciating.
"I'd love it if we had 10 songs in the set that no one's heard" - I never got that. People want to hear the songs they know and love!
probably more interesting for the band to play new stuff, see the reactions etc
@@KM-zw9qb No doubt, but they could mix it up by playing different songs that the fans know.
Lo que habría dado por verlos en estas fechas.
Lástima que vinieron a México, hasta 2004, y después hasta 2008.
❤❤❤❤
where the hell did bill murray come from lmao
Same place he always comes from: space.
