Originally released in 1985, R.E.M.'s 3rd album, "Fables of The Reconstruction" peaked at #28 on the Billboard charts and spawned two hit singles, "Can't Get There From Here" and "Driver 8". Breaking with their tradition of recording in Athens GA, the band recorded in England with producer Joe Boyd.
 
This 25th Anniversary Edition features the classic album digitally remastered. The bonus disc is a complete run through of the album done in studio in Athens, before the band left for London for the actual recording sessions. These demos have never before been released and feature three additional tracks, not on the final album, including "Throw Those Trolls Away", a song the band has never released.
