The Replacements – Pleased To Meet Me

How is this $50 bucks already? All the similar Rhino repressings of Tim, Let It Be are still $20-30? It seems to be sold out with retailers too.

Looks like it was pressed at Rainbo like my 2009 copy of Tim.

I’m getting a lot of siblance on nevermind and some other tracks. Anyone else?

This pressing is unreal. I started off with the 2008 KPG remastered that sounds pretty good, but when I found a NM of this original at my record store, I had to get it. Generally, KPG does a fantastic job with remastering, but this Ted Jensen mastered original DESTROYS the modern pressing. It's like an original Electra Metallica album vs the current Walmart pressing kind of difference.

Their last great album & first as a three-piece (Bob Stinson having been let go) rocks like crazy from start to finish. Recorded digitally in Memphis at Ardent Studios w/ the band giving themselves over to savvy producer Jim Dickinson for a full-blooded muscular sound that still retains the Mats punk attitude sharp lyrics & impeccable melodies.
Epic.

I was blown away by the quality of this record. Clear and loud! Don’t really know how much better this record can get.

This is not my fave Mats LP, but it's def got some classics (Alex Chilton, Can't Hardly Wait , Skyway, The Ledge) and it sounds purdy good to these Ol' ears.

What's the deal with green background color variant? Most I've seen has yellow background.

Great sounding record. Very dynamic, punchy and the right amount of loud. Haven’t compared to recent reissues but can’t imagine they sound better

Very good pressing. Solid bottom end and the vocals and guitar are both represented crisply with nice definition. Of course the songwriting is top notch. Purchase and enjoy!
