Every time I hear this band on Sirius XMU I reflexively look to see who’s playing and turn it up. Must be a good sign. This is the first single from the Glaswegian trio’s forthcoming debut LP.

Latter day Replacements guitarist Slim Dunlap (who replaced original guitarist Bob Stinson in 1987) had a severe stroke a few months back, wreaking havoc on his finances, despite having insurance. So, core Replacements founders Paul Westerberg and Tommy Stinson decided to raise some cash for their old bandmate to soften the blow. A supremely limited edition 10″ of 250 copies made up of newly recorded covers was auctioned off, raising over $105,000. The music is available to the general public today via Amazon MP3, as well as all of the streaming services. With just a cursory listen it’s hard to tell at first that this is The Replacements, but after a few songs the familiarity of Westerberg’s voice makes it hard to deny.

Never one to disappoint in a live setting, Prince tore it up on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon last Friday night to showcase his new, all-female backing band 3rd Eye Girl and his new single “Screwdriver.” He also played the ultra-deep cut “Bambi” off his second, self-titled LP from 1979. Jimmy Fallon announced a forthcoming tour for Prince to begin on the West Coast in April, although these are the only dates I could verify. [via Stereogum]

The Original Soundtrack from the Ryan Gosling film Drive is being re-released on a special gatefold, double-LP set with new artwork by poster artist Tyler Stout (above) on black vinyl. Random copies will be pressed on hot pink vinyl, however. I never win that lottery, so I expect my copy to be black. But I’m excited, nonetheless, because the music is what pushed this film from great to bad ass for me. The OST features a score by composer Cliff Martinez, as well as unshakably memorable songs by Kavinsky, Chromatics, and College. This reissue is available for purchase via Austin’s Mondo Gallery on March 22, 2013. None of the streaming sites carry this soundtrack, so your options are limited. [via Pitchfork]

Ugh. Record Store Day is so going to break me. Only 1000 copies of The Jesus and Mary Chain‘s Psychocandy on paint splatter vinyl will be made available. No word yet on region. [via Spin]

Still having trouble getting past that name but digging the record so far. And Thom Yorke’s smooth moves. It’s a good thing that guy can sing.

In Record Store Day News via Slicing Up Eyeballs:

Echo & The Bunnymen’s 1980 debut album Crocodiles will be reissued for Record Store Day in a new 180-gram audiophile pressing on red vinyl by reissue specialist Vinyl 180, the label announced in an e-mail newsletter this week. No further details have been revealed, and it’s not yet known whether it will be a U.K.-only release or also put out in the U.S.

Surely to God, there will be a U.S. version, right? I’m not getting up early and standing in line for nothing. Although, my list is growing out of control. Methinks labels are starting to take advantage of this whole “Record Store Day” business.
