The Replacements @ 7th Street Entry, 1981
Well, why not heat up your cold January with some surprisingly well capture 'Mats from September of 1981, just a month or so after releasing their debut record. They tear through songs from both that debut and the soon to come Stink EP, as well as a rippin' cover of Chuck Berry's "Maybellene". It's already clear that Bob Stinson is a damned beast. Be sure to stick around for all six parts.

RIP Alex Chilton (1950-2010)
Horrifically sad news out of New Orleans this evening, as it has been confirmed that Alex Chilton has passed away at age 59. One of the most gifted songwriters I've ever had the pleasure of hearing, this is definitely a huge loss for music. In honor, here is one of my absolute favorite songs he wrote, as well as a wonderful tribute song from the Replacements.
