Record Store Day Black Friday 2013 Release! First Ever US Vinyl Release!
High Quality 140g Vinyl! Mastered From Original Analog Tapes!
All Shook Down is the final album by The Replacements released in 1990. For many, The Replacements were simply one of the greatest rock bands ever as their music made them legends and inspired entire generation to think of them as cultural and musical heroes. The basis of most of the tunes lie in the acoustic guitar, with electric guitar fills here and there to add coloring. As always, Westerberg's signature word-play figures heavily into the lyrics.
This album was originally intended to be front man Paul Westerberg's solo artist debut. As a result of its initial intent, All Shook Down is marked by numerous session, side and journeyman-musicians, supplemented by the three other 'Mats themselves. Replacements bassist Tommy Stinson plays bass and sings backup vocals on a number of the tracks, while guitarist Slim Dunlap and drummer Chris Mars appear on a few tracks each. John Cale, formerly of the Velvet Underground, plays viola on "Sadly Beautiful". The only track featuring the entire band performing together is the acoustic rave-up "Attitude".
All Shook Down has been remastered here from the original analog tapes with a quality pressing it has never seen, giving new life to this classic LP.
"America's best band is back where it belongs: the garage." -Rolling Stone
"All Shook Down winds up being a note-perfect denouement to the Replacements' career..." -Stephen Thomas Erlewine, allmusic.com
