R.E.M.’s first appearance on MTV Unplugged took place on April 10, 1991, the year the band came to worldwide attention, at Chelsea Studios in New York City. Because of the fact, that there never was an official album release of this splendid concert and only poor-quality-bootlegs floating around, I dug for my own analog audio recording master tape and built a new and by far better release from it.

Of the less predictable selections, “It’s the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)” was the strangest candidate for an acoustic revamp, and it certainly didn’t occur to the band themselves initially, as Stipe announced that it was a last-minute request from MTV. Indeed, they had to have the lyric faxed through from Athens. The vocals, for their part, received more care and attention than it had on the Green tour, and the attempt amused both the band and the audience alike.
