Another band that's better than Pearl Jam calls it quits. For what its worth I thought they broke up like 10 years ago. |

Dont they still owe Sony some albums? or did their last few efforts yield so few sales that Sony just let them go? |

Lets just keep it that way. |

Only CD I have of theirs is "Dead Letter Office", a rarities and B-sides collection by R.E.M., released in 1987. The album is essentially a collection of many additional recordings R.E.M. made pre-Murmur to "Lifes Rich Pageant" that were outtakes or released as flip sides to their singles internationally. Many of the tracks are favorite cover versions indicating the band's disparate influences and musical tastes, including three Velvet Underground covers, and songs by Pylon, Aerosmith and Roger Miller. I love the instrumental surf type jingle "White Tornado". |

He is the best at what he does. No arguments here. That's how I knew Bill Cosby wasn't really dead because illini would have had the scoop. |
