  3. The Replacements, Let It Be, 1984 on Twin/Tone

    Third full length album for The Replacements, following Hootenanny. Recorded at Blackberry Way after using a warehouse in Brooklyn Center for that record. Produced by Steve Fjelstad, Peter Jesperson, and Paul Westerberg.

    Definitely one of my favorites – with the sublime (“Androgynous,” “Unsatisfied”) and the ridiculous (“Gary’s Got a Boner”) and a cover of Kiss’ “Black Diamond” for good measure. Peter Buck guests on “I Will Dare” and Chan Poling on “Sixteen Blue.”

    My copy—via Slipped Disc at a record fair at Mill No. 5 in Lowell MA—is the 2016 reissue by Rhino on Twin/Tone labels.

  4. That song (youtu.be/ftTOEJfzdq0?si=b-u-iv) is what introduced me to Alex Chilton and Big Star- who like The Replacements have their own star at First Avenue’s legendary Star Wall (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Av)
