The Replacements Treat 'Don't Tell a Soul' to Rarities Box Set

BY Calum SlingerlandPublished Jul 19, 2019

This year marks three decades since the Replacements released Don't Tell a Soul, and the band have now announced it's getting an expanded box set reissue to mark the occasion.

Arriving September 27 through Rhino, the Dead Man's Pop box set features the album "mixed as it was originally intended," in addition to a collection of previously unheard tracks and a live recording of the band's entire set at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee on June 2, 1989. The set also includes five tracks the band recorded with Tom Waits.

The box's 60 tracks are spread across four CDs and one LP, which are housed in a hardcover book featuring rare photographs and liner notes from Bob Mehr, author of 2015 Replacements biography Trouble Boys.
