REM Radio Session

Radio Session VARA Radio 12 maart 1991. No titles on sleeve. Live in-studio performance for [l345277], (broadcasted?) but never released. A bit information is found here on the site of "[url=http://www.2metersessies.nl/2018/03/engagement-van-r-e-m-column/]2 Meter Sessies[/url]". According to "[url=http://remtimeline.com/1990.html]REMtimeline[/url]", the session was held in Studio 1 of the Bullet Sound Studio's, Nederhorst den Berg, The Netherlands. There is 40 seconds of silence before the volume of World Leader Pretend (during the first line of lyrics) is to normal level. I think Stipe's statement about the Desert Storm War (as referred to on the 2 Meter Sessies site) was somehow overdubbed. After track A6 you can hear Endgame en Tom's Diner (Live), probably from the Near Wild Heaven single. Side B has two songs from the 2 Meter Session, after which other live songs and a live registration (from totally different sources) can be heard. It's unclear if the extra music on the A- en B-side was originally on the tape, or added by a owner.
