This limited-edition 10-inch EP revisits R.E.M.’s landmark debut single “Radio Free Europe” and is pressed on translucent orange vinyl.
The Radio Free Europe 2025 EP was overseen by the band’s original producer Mitch Easter—who first captured R.E.M. at his Drive-In Studio during their maiden road trip to a professional studio in April 1981. That seminal session yielded the band’s earliest recordings of “Radio Free Europe,” “Sitting Still,” and the instrumental “Wh. Tornado,” all collected here.
