For fans of: Husker Du, Big Star, Guided by Voices, Dinosaur Jr., Superchunk
LET IT BE by The Replacements - Paul Westerberg, Bob Stinson, Tommy Stinson, and Chris Mars - originally released by Twin/Tone Records, is widely hailed as one of the greatest albums of the 1980s and a cornerstone of indie rock.
This DELUXE EDITION gathers a wide range of unreleased material from the LET IT BE sessions, including alternate versions of "Gary's Got A Boner" and "Favorite Thing," previously unreleased outtakes "Who's Gonna Take Us Alive" and "Street Girl," and an alternate version of "Androgynous" featuring a different vocal take and the full piano intro, restored for the first time.
The collection also includes GOODNIGHT! GO HOME!, an unreleased 28-song performance recorded in August 1984 at the Cubby Bear in Chicago. Sourced from an audience tape and newly remastered, it finds the Minneapolis quartet charging through material from the not-yet-released album, early favorites, and characteristically offbeat covers. All five bonus tracks from 2008's LET IT BE (EXPANDED EDITION) are included here, newly remastered.
