[Pre Order] R.E.M. - The Black Sessions Revealed - LP *

Release Date: November 20, 2026

R.E.M. live in Paris, May 2001 — a previously unreleased Radio France broadcast, issued for the 25th anniversary of Reveal.

Recorded for Radio France's Black Sessions on May 7, 2001, this is R.E.M. playing Reveal while the album was still brand new. Seventeen songs across four sides pair that material — "Imitation Of Life," "All The Way To Reno," "I've Been High," "The Lifting" — with a career's worth of favourites, from "Losing My Religion" and "Man On The Moon" to "So. Central Rain" and a closing "It's the End of the World as We Know It." Pressed as a 2LP gatefold by Craft Recordings.
