R.E.M.'s first and breakthrough single 'Radio Free Europe' was initially released by a small Atlanta-based record label, Hib-Tone Records. The album, 'Murmur', went on to reach number 36 in the album charts, and set the band steadfastly on the path to college radio domination and critical acclaim. The band's 1988 compilation album, 'Eponymous', included what was called the Original Hib-Tone single, but what was in fact Easter's original mix, not Hibbert's. This limited edition 7-inch pressing represents the first-ever re-release of the original Hib-Tone recording of 'Radio Free Europe', and comes housed in a replica sleeve.
