    "comment": "#162...\n---\nThis album was the follow-up to R.E.M..'s acclaimed debut, \"Murmur.\" \nThe one noticeable difference between Murmur and Reckoning is the clarity in Michael Stipe’s vocals. On the former, Stipe’s vocals are buried in the mix and almost hidden, whereas on Reckoning, you can hear him clearly and his enunciation is better. You no longer had to strain to decipher what he was saying. Another improvement was producers Don Dixon and Mitch Easter recording the band using two microphones with the hope of achieving a sound similar to their live shows. It paid huge dividends and helped deliver one of the strongest albums in their catalog.",
