Automatic for the People
one of my all-time favorite albums, and I'm not even a big REM fan



Favorite here too, and I AM a fan...this is the one. After their first breakthrough with Murmur and Reckoning, when they became huge and no longer Indie, they started branching out musically.

This is the one where it all came together.

The last three songs:
-- Man on the Moon
-- LINK
-- Find the River

One of the best album endings ever, IMO.

I would say Out of Time is the one where they achieved massive international success...

That said, Ive never understood the early REM fans that have disliked this era of their music... I liked this record a lot, sans the drive song...
