REVIEW: Replacements @ Cabaret Metro '86 RSD Release + 'Mats Tribute Band

As you've no doubt come to understand, this is the channel for your favorite Replacements related content. Naturally, I was all over the newest Replacements Live record, "Not Ready for Prime Time: LIVE at the Cabaret Metro, 1986."
Eagle-eyed fans will likely notice that this is the same concert featured - only on CD - in last year's Tim: Let It Bleed Edition box set. You are correct. However, this Record Store Day exclusive is the only way you can get the show on vinyl. The two LP set has a gatefold cover and features liner notes from Bob Mehr, author of 'Trouble Boys.'
In addition to my review of the new album, I have some clips and photos I took of a new Replacements tribute band called Left of the Dial. They played their first show the night before record store day.

[@RekkidTalk]

I picked this up as well. No one should expect audiophile live rekkids from the 'Mats.

[@Thedarkstuff]

I hear ya. But that Live at Maxwells sounds pretty effin’ epic!

[@lostmixtapes]

I should probably pick that one up. Honestly it didn’t do a whole lot for me as part of the Let It Bleed box. But maybe all that flipping of records will keep me better engaged with it.

[@Thedarkstuff]

Tbh, it would be more essential if the Live at Maxwells didn’t exist. But it does, obviously. Still, I’m such a sucker for this stuff.

[@EmbryonicRobot]

Very good review :)

[@Thedarkstuff]

Thanks!

[@STEVEHEROLD]

started hearing people saying a lotta these have been warped?!?

[@Thedarkstuff]

Oh. Hadn’t heard that.

[@STEVEHEROLD]

@@Thedarkstuff yeh i was thinking of picking it up next month but was a little concerned when a handful of people said theirs was warped. mainly cause im on the road and wouldn’t get to play until i get home in august.

[@JoelligerentTV]

Caught Bongzilla the night before RSD

[@Thedarkstuff]

Didn’t know they were still together

[@JoelligerentTV]

@@Thedarkstuff oh rough looking but still “grinding”

[@alleycattle]

Great performance. Bad mix.

[@Thedarkstuff]

I think it’s more poor source material
