The Replacements turned a career in Punk toward that of alternative-styled music. This is something that MANY bands used the guise of Punk for, to get on the wagon of a popular style and turn the tide for themselves. By 1981, Paul Westerberg and crew released their first album, following it up with six more before their demise. By the time of their breakup, The Replacements were forever legendary.
On September 22, The Replacements pays honor to their first Sire album, Tim. Originally released in 1985, Tim broke the band into the charts. This new reissue will feature a remix and a 2023 remaster of the original album. Alongside of those presentations will be a collection of demos, alternate versions, and a CD filled to the brim with a complete concert set from the Cabaret Metro in Chicago, IL on January 11, 1986. The full box will be completed with a vinyl LP featuring the Ed Stasium mix of the album. A 12×12 book will be packed in.
The Let It Bleed Edition of Tim will be issued within a 4CD/1LP (180g-weight black vinyl press) Box, and DD. You can listen to “Left Of The Dial” from the Ed Stasium mix below. All sets are via Rhino Entertainment.
