Posted July 22nd, 2019 by eric

The Replacements have announced a new box set of alternate versions of the songs that comprised its penultimate album, Don’t Tell A Soul. Across four discs, an LP, and a cassette, the new set, entitled Dead Man’s Pop, presents Don’t Tell A Soul as it was originally intended, according to the press release over at Rhino.

Some of the alternate takes include the notoriously debauched and drunken sessions with producer Tony Berg at Bearsville Studios from 1988, as well as the infamous sessions later that same year mutual fan with Tom Waits!?!

The whole package is capped off with a book by Bob Mehr, who wrote the band’s biography, Trouble Boys: The True Story of the Replacements. Dead Man’s Pop is out September 27, 2019 via Rhino.
