Automatic For the People by R.E.M. (CD, Oct-1992, Warner Bros. Records Record Label)

In 1992 R.E.M released Automatic for the People. This album is definitely the best they ever put out. Drive with Michael Stipes on lead is one of my favorite songs. Try Not to Breathe, is also great.

FOR A USED CD ITS CONDITION WAS GREAT,IT CAME TO ME VERY FAST FROM US,AND I ALSO LIKED THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE IT WITHOUT A CASE FOR LESS SHIPPING!! GREAT COMBINED SHIPPING OFFER!!

I bought Automatic for the People by R.E.M. for a fraction of the price. It was brand new and in perfect condition. I will buy all of my cd's through ebay now. The cd plays excellent and was delivered in a timely manner. I was extremely pleased. This product rates excellent because it was flawless.

Just what I asked for. The CD came quickly and in good condition. The CD worked great and the casing came in good shape.

CD collector, I'm not into the MP3 thing yet, so I still like to collect cds. Item as great for my collection. I purchase of collecting and listening.

this CD; REM Automatic for the people; is one of the best albums I have heard by the group. The songs are really cool, sort of poppy and punky, all together really fun to listen to. I would recommend listening to this CD on about 8 or 9 on the volume control, maybe 10, it's so good.

I doubt there is anything new I can add to others comments, this is just a great recording. I bought this copy to replace my original that went missing. If someone with good taste made off with this one, I would replace it again. Simply the best REM album, in my opinion, and my favorite album of the 1990's.

Automatic was REM's most listener Friendly album to date. I can't believe how many songs from here made it to the radio. Usually, I dislike music that makes it to the top 40 Station but this is a rare exception. This album is fantastic. Everybody Hurts, Star Me Kitten, Nightswimming...BEAUTIFUL! 5 Huge Stars.

Firstly, I was born in Athens, GA and now live in Marietta, GA. In high school (Class of '90) I was a metalhead for the most part and my antithesis were those being groomed for the UGA experience-naturally avid fans of REM, Drivin' and Cryin', etc. I couldn't stomach it and it wasn't until years had passed and I began to digest more and more music that I began to grudgingly allow these native sons some credit. This album is not the hitfest that got everyone's attention as we crossed over from the 80's to the 90's but is a nice maturation of REM; by the album's release in 1992, much had changed in musical consciousness across this land and I probably would've enjoyed it but 'twas not to be. I just recently bought it and now I'm in my thirties....all that being said, I think it really stands ye olde test of time. I guess it probably was a comfortable analogue to many classmates' growth and was a background track to their consumerist lack of political/social/environmental awareness-Birkenstock shopping music, if you will. But REM did try to connect and there is a poignancy on this album that's kind of touching-surely it began to drive the masses away and by the mid-90's things all over musicland began to die. In conclusion, I think this one separated the radioheads from the fans, which is usually what happens with popular bands. Looking at the derivative, desperate, fallout state of things now, it's pretty reassuring to visit REM. (How many generations have said that kind of thing?)

Great album! If you like R E M you'll love this one! Most of the songs on thi salbum made it to the radio at some time or another.
