I've always said that All Shook Down has some of the best guitar fills. Of course it's pretty much a Replacements album in name only but Westerberg was on top of his singer songwriter game here. Always wished there was a longer take of Torture out there somewhere.

Sometimes it amazes me how people come together and make art like this. It is such a rare thing if you think about it. Out of the billions and billions of people that have existed, only a few thousand are truly great, if that. I always think about the songs I never heard and will never hear throughout the thousands of years man has made music that was truly beautiful. Anyway, love this band. I am so happy to have lived and experienced so much great music throughout my life.

Another underrated, misunderstood & misguided. Sometimes art stays hidden until age & opportunity to speak for yourself, for fear of losing the verified success you already are enjoying takes away your own Hit Making Music, The revelation of music not even born in the minds of the leaders, much less written even in your sleep, trying to make itself known. success has ridden beside you on the bus or whatever the transportation is. love you, you are being given I am sure of, by GOD, for the best Guardian Grandaddy ever, to protect a precious Soul. Grandpa & I have so much love for you, that NEVER, will end. I accidentally deleted the first one sent, & they are all great UNENDING PURE LOVE

Ahhh yes. Great times seeing them live in Jersey and New York. Time fly's but memories stay sweet.

One of my favorite albums...even though it was really a Westerberg solo album...or almost. If that's what it is, so be it.

This is my 25th favorite song

if your favorite band makes a video like this, I'm sorry but they're about to split up.

These special effects are magnificent!

Listened to the Mats since the eighties, but first time seeing this!!

Mats, SOUL asylum, husker du, urban gorillas, flaming O 'S, the suburbs. Great live music scene in the twin cities of mpls/st Paul mn. During the 80"s

This carries The Replacements name but is really nothing more than the beginning of the Paul Westerberg solo effort. I like the album, but I think it's a notch or two down from Don't Tell a Soul and several notches down from Tim, Let it Be, Hootenany, Pleased to Meet Me, etc.

@atomicinjun You must have not heard Let It Be or Tim, then. Pleased to Meet Me is great, but it doesn't touch those two.

"That's the way you do it... Play the guitar on the MTV!" Paul Westerberg pretty much invented the alt.Rock genre when he moved the Replacements away from their early 80s punk rock sound. By the early 90s, when this was produced, I believe a big part of Westerberg wished he had just stayed a janitor

Underrated album ("One Wink at a Time" and "Sadly Beautiful" rank up there with the band's best) from a gang that refused to stop shooting themselves in the foot. While Westerburg is the celebrated songwriter, Tommy Stinson had a far more satisfying solo career. Listen to his "One Man Mutiny," it's outstanding.

This should have been the video for Left of the Dial instead of thumbing their noses at MTV. Well I get it but really I wanted to see my fav band having more success .. That's something you can understand? Seems like a gazoo should be playing. This is an pretty good song but the best are NOBODY, ALL SHOOK DOWN, AND SADLY BEAUTIFUL.

My music tastes have changed a LOT since then.. xD My favorites are Billie Joe Armstrong, Kurt Cobain, Andy Biersack, Vic Fuentes, Paul Westerberg, Ronnie Radke, and Danny Worsnop :) yeah, I listen to a lot of metalcore and punk sooo...

Chris didn't like being in a rock band anymore than Charlie Watts. He moved on to his real passion, oil painting. Just the way Charlie plays jazz as his real passion.
