The Replacements Interview WKDU Philadelphia (07-28-1987)

July 1987 was a big month for the Replacements! They had just released their fifth studio album, the very different sounding, more radio-friendly "Pleased To Meet Me" and blew the lid off of several venues along the eastern seaboard.  Prior to their gig at the Chestnut Cabaret in Philadelphia on July 28th, the band sat down for an interview with local station WKDU.  This is a short, but candid interview where the band talks about signing to a major label and their Twin Cities brethren, Soul Asylum and Hüsker Dü.
