Iraq War? Clinton? C'mon folks. this album was released in 1986!!! Reagan was midway through his 2nd term and America was in a serious funk... much as it is now after Bush II. It proves the brilliance of Stipe as a lyricist that his lyrics can be applied to politics today (22 years later!). If you think Life's Rich Pageant is one of REM's less-favorable albums, PLEASE listen to it again and again... AND watch REM's Tourfilm DVD. LRP is by far REM's burliest album and personally it's my favorite. |
