REM - Live at the Olympia.... lotsa old stuff and unformed (at the time) new stuff = great, off the cuff feeling live album... free of the polish that sometime mars live records, this one has lots of banter between Stipe, the audience, the band and it just sounds like everyone in the room is having a darn great time, band included.... which must have been a revelation for the nervous band going into recording Accelerate after the plodding Around the Sun
