THE REPLACEMENTS - FOR SALE: LIVE AT MAXWELL'S 1986 VINYL (2LP GATEFOLD)

2LP GATEFOLD VINYL

Release Date: 6th October 2017

In February 1986 The Replacements performed a classic live show at Maxwell’s in Hoboken NJ. Until now that pristine recording of the legendary performance has only been available in low-quality bootleg form. For Sale: Live At Maxwell’s 1986 finally makes its commercial debut as a double-LP. This marks the first live album by the band to see an official release on this format. The show at Maxwell’s would prove to be one of the last great performances by the four original members of The Replacements a much beloved line-up including Bob Stinson on guitar before his departure from the band in 1986. The songs they played spanned the band’s entire history while giving prominence to new material from Tim including 'Bastards Of Young' 'Left Of The Dial' and 'Kiss Me On The Bus'. Mixed in were favourites like 'I Will Dare' from Let It Be (1984) and 'Color Me Impressed' from Hootenanny (1983). The original 24-track master tapes of the show sat in the Warner Music vaults until being given a proper mix in 2007 but it would still be another decade before the concert would get its official release. This is one for all your Replacements fans and also a perfect way to get into the band if you've never heard them before - because this live performance will have everyone hooked on this incredible and massively influential rock band!
