R.E.M. continues to dole out samples of the material that will be found on its upcoming 9-disc R.E.M. at the BBC box set, most recently in the form of a 2003 on-air performance of Green-era single “Orange Crush” on the BBC’s “Mark and Lard” program — which you can stream in full below.
We’ve got the box set’s tracklist posted over here.
The set, due out Oct. 19, is up for pre-order on Amazon.com.

Pete’s guitar is tuned too high.
The rest is pretty workman-like… or is it worksong-like?
Still gonna pass. Nudge me when they reunite or release the Christmas singles.
Will probably pass too, given the price.
But yeah, a reunion, Christmas singles, fan club singles…..want it all.
If I haven’t said it, you’re alright, Nortley!
Have a great rest of the week!
