The Replacements: Various Sources (FLAC)

OU: I uploaded this onto a flac format in order to squeeze as much audio quality as possible from the original source. This is as good as it will ever get. However, it does have its limitations. So keep that in mind. Enjoy the Mats!

Review from Allmusic.com by Bradley Torreano:
Boasting good sound quality and a great collection of rare songs, this is the strongest bootleg that has been released featuring the Replacements. "Ought to Get Love" is a fine pop/rocker in the tradition of Westerberg's idol Alex Chilton, while "Kissing in Action" shows off their hard rock roots with a driving Kiss-style riff. Versions of "Route 66," "Tossin' and Turnin'," and "Twentieth Century Boy" are all solid, if sloppy; but the fine cover of the Western classic "Cool Water" is the best non-Westerberg track. Tommy Stinson handles the vocals on the wonderful "Satellite," while a guest appearance by Tom Waits livens up the bouncy "Date to Church." But what makes this all worth it is "If Only You Were Lonely," the first single released by the band and one of the finest ballads ever penned in the post-punk era. Westerberg strums an acoustic guitar and wails drunkenly about a hidden obsession with both an immature smugness and a sad optimism, hinting to the exact contrast that would make their music so essential only a few years later. This is one of the best places to find some wonderful music by one of the greatest rock bands of the 1980s.

Live August 7, 1993. Soundboard quality. Westerberg in his prime if you ask me. From the 1st moment I dug out "Sorry Ma.. Forgot to Take Out the Trash" from my brothers music collection I've been absolutely addicted to The Replacements. But I think the Mats/ Westerberg peak was prob “14 Songs” which is the tour this show is from. I remember reading several reviews back in the day that completely dissed Westerberg’s solo debut (“14 Songs”), but I’ve always loved it & absolutely still do. ‘Dice Behind Your Shades’, ‘Knockin’ on Mine’ ‘Silver Naked Ladies’ ‘Black Eyed Susan’ and one of my fav B sides of all time from any band ‘Seein’ Her.’ Most of those tunes which you can find on this live show amongst several other classic Mats tunes like ‘Can’t Hardly Wait’, ‘Left of the Dial’, ‘I Will Dare,’ etc..

The Replacements are:
Paul Westerberg - Vocals, Guitars
Bob Stinson - Lead Guitars
Tommy Stinson - Bass
Chris Mars - Drums

This show was recorded in mid-1985, shortly before or after Tim was released (I'm not sure which). As a result, they do a lot of Tim songs, including a few like "I'll Buy" that didn't wind up in the live rotation for very long. There's also a great rendition of "Punk Poop", a Westerberg original that was never studio recorded. This is a fairly serious, straightforward, high-quality show, without a lot of goofy covers or fucking around. And the cover contains photos of Bob without his pants... what more could you want? - FOSHAY TOWER
