Alfred Introduces Guitar Folios for R.E.M.'s Accelerate and Rush's Moving Pictures

Guitarists everywhere will be thrilled with Alfred's release of these two hugely popular album-matching folios. Alfred proudly introduces R.E.M.: Accelerate and Rush: Moving Pictures.

R.E.M. powerfully returns to its roots with Accelerate, their first studio album in four years. The album's stripped-down, guitar-driven approach puts the 2007 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame group once again firmly behind the wheel of alternative rock, a genre R.E.M. helped invent. All songs in this album-matching folio are formatted in authentic guitar TAB.

Moving Pictures, Rush's eighth studio album, came out in 1981 and is their most commercially successful release. The album was certified quadruple platinum in 1995 and features several of Rush's most classic songs, including "Tom Sawyer," "YYZ," "Red Barchetta," and "Limelight." Although they have always shunned the formulaic and popular approaches to rock music, the band is fifth all-time — just behind the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Kiss and Aerosmith — for the most gold and platinum records by a rock band. Alfred's album-matching folio features all songs in authentic guitar TAB.

R.E.M.: Accelerate is now available for $19.95; Rush: Moving Pictures is now available for $18.95.

Accelerate titles: Living Well Is the Best Revenge, Man-sized Wreath, Supernatural Superserious, Hollow Man, Houston, Accelerate, Until the Day Is Done, Mr. Richards, Sing for the Submarine, Horse to Water, and I'm Gonna DJ.

Moving Pictures titles: The Camera Eye, Limelight, Red Barchetta, Tom Sawyer, Vital Signs, Witch Hunt, and YYZ.
