Description
Limited Edition 4LP Set, Individually Numbered Regular Weight Black Vinyl.
The Sire Years is a 4LP collection that features all four of The Replacements' studio albums the band recorded for Sire Records between 1985-90, including: 'Tim,' 'Pleased To Meet Me,' 'Don't Tell A Soul' and 'All Shook Down.'
Without a doubt, the albums collected on 'The Sire Years' helped secure The Replacements' reputation as one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time.
The band's final album, 'All Shook Down,' stands as one of the most poetic and enduring epilogues in rock history, boasting such killer tracks as "Someone Take the Wheel" and "Sadly Beautiful," and the Grammy-nominated "When It Began."
According to award-winning music critic Bob Mehr, The Replacements became one of the first indie bands to make the transition to the major label world, winning converts thanks to Westerberg's rapidly maturing songwriting.
