R.E.M. – Document (CD, 1987, I.R.S. Records IRSD-42059)

Why This CD Matters
Document is R.E.M.’s fifth studio album and the band’s first collaboration with producer Scott Litt, beginning a partnership that continued through the 1990s. The album includes “The One I Love” and “It’s the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine),” two songs that became enduring parts of the band’s catalog. Released in 1987, Document helped move R.E.M. from the American alternative underground toward broader commercial success.
