 | MURMUR by R.E.M.
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £2.44 The only REM album that everyone should own - mumbly, obscure, heartfelt, heartbreaking
|
 | Green by R.E.M.
Buy new: £6.78 / Used from: £0.15 The next coolest. Their major label debut and their most effortlessly diverse album
|
 | Fables Of The Reconstruction (The I.R.S. Years Vintage) by R.E.M.
Buy new: £4.78 / Used from: £1.75 If you're serious you'll love this. Harsh, gloomy, soul-baring stuff, recorded in London during a bleak period
|
 | Reckoning by Rem
Buy used from: £1.67 Classic early sound, bouncy and manic, kind of their 'A Hard Day's Night' to Murmur's 'Please Please Me'
|
 | Life's Rich Pageant (Remastered) by R.E.M.
Buy new: £4.98 / Used from: £3.69 The early sound peaks - full-throated and passionate. REM does Springsteen. But better
|
 | Document (Remastered) by R.E.M.
Buy new: £4.88 / Used from: £1.47 They discover the fuzzbox and go global. The sexiest of the IRS albums
|
 | Monster by R.E.M.
Buy new: £6.58 / Used from: £0.01 The noisiest and funniest, so far, of the Warner albums. Wildly underrated in this fan's opinion
|
 | New Adventures in Hi-Fi by R.E.M.
Buy new: £10.78 / Used from: £0.48 Bloated and too long but the definitive recording of the mature band. Another inexplicably underrated album, full of rock and sex and fun
|
 | Up by R.E.M.
Buy new: £10.78 / Used from: £0.23 The first and most troubled post-Bill album; the best bits are so desperately sad that you wish they'd let the whole album be like that
|
 | Automatic for the People by R.E.M.
Buy new: £5.78 / Used from: £0.23 Widely believed to be their finest hour, but in my opinion severely lacking in good songs ('Drive' being by far the best)
|
 | Out of Time by R.E.M.
Buy new: £5.78 / Used from: £0.49 The album that propelled them into the big time, and not one decent song on it

Listmania!
