Let It Be

The Replacements half-heartedly tried to expand their reach on Hootenanny, and they followed through on that album's promise on Let It Be. Kicking off with the country-rock shuffle of 'I Will Dare,' the record explodes into a series of psuedo-hardcore ravers before hitting Paul Westerberg's piano-driven rumination, 'Androgynous,' one of four major ballads that cuts to the core of Midwestern suburban alienation.
