R.E.M. to Reissue Reckoning

R.E.M. will continue its reissuing rampage with the 25th Anniversary Deluxe edition of their second album, 1984's Reckoning on June 23. Similar to last year's reissue of Murmur, it will be a two-disc set and will feature a live show taped at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago on July 17, 1984. The show contains eight tracks from Reckoning and older songs like "Gardening At Night," "Radio Free Europe" and "Sitting Still." The original cut of Reckoning reached number 27 in the US and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America in 1991.
