Episode 25 (with Paul Chave): R.E.M. (Part 3)

Full apologies made for length here instead of a dodgy rank pun…! We round off R.E.M. with guest Paul Chave in one of our longest parts yet, covering Reveal, Around The Sun, Accelerate & Collapse Into Now. We also do our The Nicher The Better top 5 on our favourite UK number ones of 1983 (with a bit of a different approach) and our shoutouts. We announce our next episode at the end, where we’ll be leaving the US & UK for the first time in a while to take on Canadian indie heroes Arcade Fire! To get that in your ears on release, subscribe on your favourite podcatcher and while you’re there, a 5* review and a recommendation to a pal would be lovely 😘 see you then!
