we need a venue that publishes ALL liner notes
Thanks so much to GQ for publishing my liner notes for the new Replacements 'Let It Be' boxset, out on Friday. Extra special thanks to Jessica Hopper, Patterson Hood and Brian Paulson for their extraordinary insights. What an absolute joy this project has been to work on. www.gq.com/story/when-t...

“Some have called it extortion, while others have said the candy store has a mighty nice plate-glass window and it’d be a shame if something happened to it, capice?”
