Duluth to Madison, treatment bound
In the beginning, there were the Replacements from
Minneapolis, Minnesota:
Paul Westerberg (guitar, lead vocals and songwriter); Tommy
Stinson (bass); Bob Stinson (Tommy抯 older half-brother,
guitar) and Chris Mars (drums).
The Replacements (heretofore known as "the Mats") released
their first record on the Twin/Tone label in 1981. "Sorry
Ma Forget to Take Out the Trash" was your basic hard-core
punk thrash on the surface - but there are glimpses of Paul
Westerberg抯 irony and intelligence hiding underneath all
that wondrous noise. "If Only You Were Lonely", the B-side
to the "I抦 in Trouble" single from "Sorry Ma" is a mournful
country ballad, and remains one of the most touching songs
Westerberg has ever written.
