R.E.M. to release audio from both MTV Unplugged performances on Record Store Day

R.E.M. has announced that they will release audio from their two MTV Unplugged performances for the first time ever on Record Store Day. The band, who split up in 2011 after 30 years together, are the only group to have been invited for two appearances on the show, the first in 1991 and the second in 2001.

As Consequence of Sound reports, the compilation collects unreleased recordings from both appearances, as well as recordings of 11 songs that never aired, for the limited edition, four-LP set.
