2020 DLX EDITION. BLACK VINYL LP FEATURES EARLY ROUGH MIXES OF THE ALBUM, THEN 3 CDs WITH A NEW 2020 REMASTER OF THE FINISHED ALBUM, RARE TRACKS, DEMOS, OUTTAKES, AND ALTERNATE TAKES, ALL IN A BIG FANCY BOOK-STYLE PACKAGE.
"The making of Pleased To Meet Me was a transformative journey for The Replacements, one that began with the combustible Minneapolis combo on the brink of collapse and culminated in one of the definitive albums of the band’s career. That transformation is chronicled in-depth on the group’s latest 3-CD / 1-LP boxed set, PLEASED TO MEET ME (DELUXE EDITION).
More than half of the music (29 of the 55 tracks) on this Deluxe Edition set has never been released, including demos, rough mixes, and outtakes as well as Bob Stinson’s last recordings with The Replacements from 1986.
The music is presented in a 12 x 12 hardcover book loaded with dozens of rarely seen photos along with a detailed history of the Pleased To Meet Me era written by Bob Mehr, who authored The New York Times bestseller, Trouble Boys: The True Story of the Replacements. Mehr, together with Rhino’s Jason Jones, produced this new collection.
Pleased To Meet Me was recorded over three months at Ardent Studios in Memphis with legendary producer Jim Dickinson before it debuted in April 1987. The collection opens with a newly remastered version of the original 11-track album along with a selection of B-sides and a version of “Can’t Hardly Wait” that was remixed by Jimmy Iovine. All of the music included in this boxed set has been remastered by Justin Perkins, who remastered the band’s widely acclaimed 2019 boxed set, Dead Man’s Pop.
The second disc explores the creative process behind Pleased To Meet Me with 15 demos, 11 of which are unreleased, that were recorded at Blackberry Way Studios in Minneapolis during the summer of 1986. The first seven of these demos represent the last recordings made by all four original members of The Replacements. After those demo sessions stalled out, singer/guitarist Westerberg, bassist Tommy Stinson, and drummer Chris Mars made the painful decision to part ways with lead guitarist Stinson after recording five albums together.
-
The disc’s remaining eight demos feature the band as a trio and include “Shooting Dirty Pool,” two versions of “Kick It In,” and “Even If It’s Cheap,” whose opening line (“Pleased to meet me/the pleasure’s all yours”) would ultimately inspire the title of the album.
The collection’s final disc features 13 previously unreleased rough mixes by studio engineer John Hampton that include the majority of the album along with non-album tracks like “Election Day” and “Birthday Gal.” These rough mixes are also featured on the 180-gram vinyl record included in the set.
Rounding out the collection are several unreleased tracks (Westerberg’s “Run For The Country” and “Learn How To Fail,” Stinson’s “Trouble On The Way”) along with a selection of outtakes (“Beer For Breakfast” and “I Don’t Know”) that debuted on the 1997 compilation, All For Nothing/Nothing For All."

Great for patch hat pressing, no discoloring or marking during transfer
Number of Items: 6
Bought to hold my leather patches down while pressing them to hats, and they work great. They have not left any residue or discoloring when pressing hats, even with white patches. Very happy with how these perform and would recommend to others who make patch hats.

A Must-Have Staple for all My Sublimation projects!
Number of Items: 6
This heat tape is an absolute essential in my workspace! I use it daily for sublimation projects and it never disappoints. It holds transfers securely in place during pressing without leaving any sticky residue behind.
The tape is strong, heat-resistant, and easy to tear by hand — super convenient when you’re working quickly. I also love that it comes in a 6-pack, which lasts me a long time even with frequent use.
If you do sublimation or heat transfer work, this is a must-have supply. Great quality and excellent value. I won’t press without it!
