Tim

Track One: The Replacements- Hold My Life

I recently saw that The Replacements are putting out a super deluxe version of their album, Tim, and of course that peaked my interest. The new edition features a remastered version, remixed version, alternate versions/demos as well as a live album from 1986. When I went back and listened to this album, I forgot how much I enjoyed it. There really was something magical about The Replacements. The first song on Tim, “Hold My Life,” is one hell of a track one. The song captures the feelings of alienation and despair while at the same time is rather poetic in a modern sense. I highly recommend taking a listen their album Tim, it’s truly one of those albums that when you listen, you can hear the influence in so many bands. And one other fun side note, Tim was produced by none other than Tommy Erdelyi aka Tommy Ramone!
