I think Lifes Rich Pageant is the best album of the 1980s. I bought that one shortly after it came out and it was my introduction to R.E.M. But speaking of the wonderful early stuff, I thought Chronic Town was a phenomenal debut. I bought it about 1988 or 89 on cassette. I listened to the first song about ten times before I listened to the rest of it. It was absolutely hypnotic. I gave up buying their new stuff after I heard Losing My Religion on the radio. Something was missing there.
