Why not! One of the greatest American bands ever deserves it's own thread (if there already is one, I couldn't find it, my apologies!)
Just out and absolutely smokin', The Replacements, For Sale: Live at Maxwell's 1986 is a must have for 'Mats fan!

But no, this a GREAT live Replacements album. There are a few sloppy numbers here but otherwise, this is four sides (on the record LP) of the band playing tight, energized music. And though somewhat late in his career with the band, guitarist Bob Stinson is at times simply stunning.
I am absolutely head-over-heals in love with this record!
