REM re-release first album 25 years on
REM are to release a special edition of their first album Murmur to mark its 25 year anniversary.

The two-CD deluxe edition of the 1983 record features a newly-remastered version of the original album and a CD of previously unreleased live material from a concert in Toronto.

Recorded at Larry's Hideaway three months after the album's original release, the live set features songs such as 'Radio Free Europe' and '7 Chinese Brothers'.

The package, which is released on November 25 in the US, also includes essays from record label executives and producers.
