Have any of you Replacement fans out there heard the new album? It is called "Tim" I believe. Are there any covers (of the musical variety) on it? -- James Cooper "Agent Double-O soul, baby..." ..!ihnp4!gargoyle!sphinx!wjnz

[Sounds of gagging and spitting] I heard it just the other day... and it sounds AWFUL. If you listen really hard you can hear a shred of the Replacements personality coming through the oh-too-major-label-production. It's hard to tell if the songs themselves are suspect... but the SOUND of this record is a definite step into the grave. If you really want Replacements doing cover versions get the cassette-only release from Twin Tone (can't remember the name off hand)... it has an entire side of covers. ... gt
