Description
THE REPLACEMENTS Pleased To Meet Me hails from 2020 and is a SEALED limited edition Translucent Blue Vinyl LP issued for the Start Your Ear Off Right campaign. Along with Prince and Husker Du, The Replacements put Minneapolis on the rock map in the 1980s with their endearing imperfection. Among America's greatest all-time alternative acts, the 'Mats rose from chaotic noise-makers to polished craftsmen, leaving a handful of masterpieces in their wake.
After issuing a series of seminal releases on indie label Twin/Tone, The Replacements signed to Sire Records in 1985. Their fifth full-length and second for a major label, Pleased To Meet Me was also the band's first following the official departure of guitarist Bob Stinson, part of the legendary founding line-up that also included lead singer and songwriter Paul Westerberg, Chris Mars (drums) and Tommy Stinson (bass).
The essential 'Mats release was recorded in Memphis, Tennessee with legendary producer Jim Dickinson whose association with Big Star attracted the band. Memorable tracks include the Big Star ode "Alex Chilton," plus "The Ledge," "I Don't Know," "Red Red Wine" and "Can't Hardly Wait.
