    LOL,  Somewhat sorry to say I no longer have a store front window (my inventory is at home these days) but we did have a copy of this at my wife's used bookstore... but not for long. 

    I totally agreed though- this one's a must have for any 'Mats fan!  It kept me up late a couple nights the first read through.  Great stuff!

    Wow, look at those guys.  Just kids!

    This is VERY cool.  This awesome dude pieced together fan footage and synced it to good sounding audio and voila!

    The Replacements and R.E.M. were the catalysts in the mid 80's that moved me from Stoner rock and metal to a full fledged "alternative music" listener. There were others too, but those two bands are the ones that made the biggest impact on teenage me.

    News just in from Discogs:


    "40 years ago today, The Replacements released their third studio album Let It Be. Growing out of their hardcore roots into a more melodic outfit, Let It Be came to symbolize classic ‘80s alienation in the alternative underground, as the band members moved into early adulthood and tried to make sense of the world around them. It is also consistently ranked as one of the greatest rock albums of the ‘80s, landing on Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums of All-Time list and Pitchfork’s 100 Best Albums of the 1980s."

    One of my all time favorites!  One of the greatest rock albums ever!

  • That's a HOF record right there! The intro to "Unsatisfied" is perfect.
