R.E.M.'S 14th STUDIO ALBUM? IF YOU DON'T COUNT THE GREATEST HITS OR THE E.P. "CHRONIC TOWN" YOU GET 15 ALBUMS

P.S. - HOW CAN YOU INCLUDE LINKS TO THAT RAG "ROLLING STONE'????

I STOPPED READING ROLLING STONE IN 1983 AFTER READING A REVIEW OF A SIMON AND GARFUNKEL CONCERT AT THE ASTRODOME. THE ONLY PROBLEM? THE CONCERT NEVER HAPPENED. HURRICAN ALICIA DID.

LIKE THE COPS WHO HAVE THE POWER TO "SMELL ALCOHOL", ROLLING STONES WRITERS HAVE POWERS ENABLING THEM TO REVIEW CONCERTS THAT DON'T EXIST.

IF I WANT TO READ CRAP I CAN GO TO THE CHECKOUT LANES OF MY LOCAL SUPERMARKET & READ THE FRONT PAGES OF THE TABLOIDS WHILE I WAIT IN LINE.

P.S.S. - THE REASON THEY ARE CALLING MOBY'S NEW ALBUM A "RETURN TO HIS CLUB ROOTS" IS BECAUSE A MORE APPROPRIATE TITLE WOULD HAVE BEEN "PLAY 2".
DON'T GET ME WRONG - I DO LIKE THE ALBUM. I THINK MOBY HAS FINALLY FIGURED OUT THAT WE DON'T LIKE HIM FOR HIS VOICE.
