Notes:
JEMS master recording. Very good recording but the vocals are hard to make out in spots. Possibly uncirculated master prior to Dec. 2010. This has the full encores some of which are not listed on the remtimeline site.
"Second-ever JEMS master of R.E.M. (the first was Detroit, MI 1983 at the Saint Andrews Hall). Strong encore in terms of covers, including the theme from the TV show Barney Miller, Pylon's "Crazy," the Beach Boys' "Sloop John B," an early version of Television's "See No Evil" and the Byrds' "So You Want to Be a Rock and Roll Star.""

* contrast clause * contrast clause * contrast clause *
this show and possibly the recording, is probably not "new" to circulation,
but in going through harwilmer's collection, this was one of the better sounding shows and recordings.
although not complete, it's apparently only missing the last 2 songs.
so this is the 71st edition of the harwilmer series from what may be a new source, but probably not.
this show has previously circulated from 2 sources.
this might be from one of them, but I am not sure.
the harwilmer series formally ends next week with what should be a new show (not R.E.M.),
but there are still a few others left that may be worth sharing later too.
this one is a nice recording and performance, from just a few days before the Providence show
not quite complete but just missing a couple of the last songs.
Chanukah begins tonight, and ends with a harwilmer series show next sunday, and a few others in between
some will be reseeds and some will likely be "new" to digital circulation.
some samples are in comments. ian

Above info from www.remtimline.com
Next in a series of early REM shows. Yes, I know I haven't included anything yet from 1983 but I don't have the organisational skills to do this in chronolgical order.
This may have been broadcast originally on Rock 103 - WIQB but, as this was Michigan, it was probably pronounced Raaarrwwwrrk 103
I received this in a CD trade in the forgotten mists of time, this is a good quality FM broadcast with a little bit of tape wobble/hiss in places.This is an incomplete recording with about 6 songs missing tha, I guess, were on the original broadcast. Sorry
The recording was running about a semitone sharp/fast so I extracted the audio using EAC and batch processed/stretched all of the files using Cool Edit 2000 to get them back to correct pitch.
