]]> The Replacements “Hootenanny” released on this date, April 29th, 1983. Twin/Tone Records. The album cover is a nod to the folk music release of 1963′s “The Original Hootenanny” and there are strains of that musical influence – and little bit of the blues – in the second release by this Minneapolis band, especially the first and title track “Hootenanny.” The rest of the album is a mix of Midwestern punk/college rock (“Run It”), a bit of gothy dirginess (“Willpower”), touches of 80′s new wave (“Within Your Reach”), rockabilly as if done by a beatnik at a poetry slam (“Lovelines”) and 60′s rock put though a blender (“Mr. Whirly”).

The Replacements are playing at The Rave here in Milwaukee this weekend. I’m not planning to go (I really dislike The Rave) but I have several friends who are so here’s hoping they have a good time and the acoustics don’t suck too badly.
