EVERY OTHER KREATIVE KONTROL EPISODE IS ONLY ACCESSIBLE TO MONTHLY $6 USD PATREON SUPPORTERS. Enjoy this excerpt and please subscribe now via this link to hear this full episode. Thanks!

Peter Ames Carlin is here to discuss his new book, The Name of This Band is R.E.M., his background as a fledgling musician and culture writer, developing lovely rapports with Brian Wilson and Bruce Springsteen but not so much with Paul Simon, why he wanted to write a definitive book about the rather private R.E.M. and why they chose to participate only from a distance, the quiet manner in which R.E.M. broke up and also why they seem to be popping up a lot these days, Carlin’s forthcoming book about Springsteen, other future plans, and much more.
