R.E.M. to Release Live EP Digitally on July 7

This fall, R.E.M. will bring us the two-disc release R.E.M. Live at the Olympia. But for those fans who just can't wait until the weather changes to get their Michael Stipe fix, the band will release Reckoning Songs From the Olympia, a four-song live EP, via iTunes and other digital service providers, on July 7. As the album title indicates, the EP's songs were first heard on the group's 1984 release, Reckoning, and were recorded during "working rehearsals" at the Olympia Theatre in Dublin in July 2007.

Tracklisting:
1. Harborcoat
2. Letter Never Sent
3. Second Guessing
4. Pretty Persuasion
