Jon S with the REPLACEMENTS HELL YEAH!

(Scott)-I did a huge 'mats post several years back, I had several boots in mine, and yes, Jon S is
ABSOLUTELY correct, 'mats boots, in general sound like shit, so much so that I am not about to go dig them out again.....however, the 'mats were one of THE great bands of te 1980's, no question, and I am thrilled to see these releases in duluxe-expanded versions! Tremendous!

Oh, the head reels..... "Here Comes a Regular" is one of the best songs ever written by ANYONE, "Waitress In the Sky", "Gary's Got a Boner"...... what a fun and great band!

Also can't wait to read the fuckin' BOOK! Thanks Jon S for continuing to submit stuff that is near and dear to my heart!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just found this book after reading about it and figured I'd pass it along, even though I haven't read it yet. And, then I thought "Fuck it, I'll pass along the rest of The 'Mats stuff I have." Only one boot; most I've heard are shit. I know some don't think much of them after a certain point but either you're a fan down the line or you're not, its up to you. Most of these are expanded sets, in case you don't have em already.

  1. I'm sure I'm in the minority here, but I simply cannot get a handle on this band. No matter which album I try, it just drives me crazy. Let's hear it for variety, though!

    1. I bought their last two albums with they came out. Then I bought the first one and Stink EP - and I was like WTF. But, listening chronologically to the releases (and totally ignoring live performances from the middle of their career) the development makes perfect sense. I think.

  5. Thanks so much for these. And did you read the book? I think it's fantastic, but man what a sad and harrowing story. I knew little bits and pieces about them, but Mehr's research was exhaustive and for a sizable chunk of it, it really makes the band members -ALL of them- pretty hard to like. But Stinson and Westerberg gave the author a lot of time and I think they were brave as shit for allowing their story to be told so honestly. But best of all, the music still sounds fantastic. Thanks again!!
