Now Playing: The Replacements’ “Can’t Hardly Wait” Video

Last year, Rhino made Replacements fans very, very happy when we released the super-expanded
version of the band’s DON’T TELL A SOUL album as DEAD MAN’S POP.

This year, we’re gonna make ‘Mats fans happy all over again: on October 9, Rhino is releasing
PLEASED TO MEET ME: DELUXE EDITION.

This 55-track set offers listeners the opportunity to take a deep dive into the sessions for the band’s sophomore Sire Records release. 29 of the 55 tracks are previously-unreleased, and they include demos, outtakes, rough mixes, and – this will be of particular importance of longtime fans – the last recordings made by Bob Stinson with the band.

Rhino.com has a number of exclusive bundles available for your purchasing enjoyment, including
sets with – get this – a t-shirt, tote bag, iron-on patch, bumper sticker, placement, and a cassette
featuring a previously unreleased interview with Paul Westerberg recorded just before the release
of the album. (Needless to say, this is the top-shelf bundle, which you can find by clicking right
here.)

You’ve probably already checked out the tracks we’ve been dropped in advance to tease you about how awesome this thing is – although if you haven’t, click here to have your mind blown – but to add to the buzz, the ‘Mats have also dropped a new video for “Can’t Hardly Wait,” one which contains the black and white footage from the original video, now upgraded to HD, and with the newly remastered audio from the upcoming release. 

Wanna see it? Sure ya do!

Before we go, though, we know you want to see the full track listing of the 3/CD / 1-LP set, but
lucky for you, that’s how we’re closing out...
