- Excerpted from the 1988 "Minneapolis Sound" documentary featuring live footage of Husker Du shot across December 3rd & 4th shows at 1st Avenue Club, 1987.
I love how Bob is the spokesperson, grant is comedic relief, and greg just smiles and rocks the stache
2 of the best rock bands in the world!!!
Thank you Minnesota for these geniuses!!!
Husker Du were one of the best bands ever! They proved it each of the four times I saw them live.
The Replacements were 10x better
@@AlbPerNil Are you fucking high?
@@AlbPerNil both were on equal footing.
Black Sheets of Rain was the only album 🎉
Bill Batson (starting at 1:32) is given a "road crew" credit, but he's much better known to garage-rock aficionados as the lead singer for The Hypstrz. The "Hypstrization!" live LP (later issued as a much-expanded CD) from this band is a must-own for anyone wanting to hear how what is basically a 60's cover band can transcend the limits of that category and completely rock your world.
I met Greg a couple of years ago, really nice guy, he is a wine rep. And was selling wine to us at our restaurant!
I was born after ‘Let it Be’ and before ‘Tim’ so I didn’t see any of those music videos on tv back then, but when I saw them sometime this century they were so captivating that you had to just sit there and watch
Minnesota PBS could just become the Husker Du channel and I doubt anyone would complain
What I wouldn’t give to see the full hüsker dü ‘87 show 🥺
I saw them so many times I cannot count- in the basements and warehouses of Minneapolis to clubs. I had a fake ID since 81 and never missed them! I still thought the Replacements with Bob was more FUN tho'!
I saw them in 85.
Yes, they were awesone.
And loud.
8 Miles High live was a religious experience.
It was good, believe me.
New Orleans, McAlistar Auditorium. It’s imprinted on my brain. It went by in a second, but the power coming from the stage was like a mini Big Bang. All I could do was go wherever it took me. Pure Beauty.
It was WAY TOO LATE by then, because they all hated each other.
2:16-The most basic question followed by the most hilariously sarcastic answer ever 🤣
If your morning commute to work is at 5am, Get a cup of coffee and crank "eight miles high", you'll get awake real fast.
I love both bands. I am from LA and dig the Minneapolis scene. I visited Princes club and saw Wilco live. It was amazing....
The Replacements were sometimes a hard band to like. Westerberg's songwriting bordered on genius but the one time I saw them live they were pissed out of their minds, which again, is classic Replacements.
I'm sure when they were marginally sober and on fire they were brilliant, but that gig was one of the worst I'd ever seen.
Westerberg could usually get his shit together on stage but, Stinson was a mess...
@@MrVegasdeuce They were all shitfaced that night!
I you love guitar driven music Husker Du should definitely be on your radar
Robert Christgau gives me imaginations of Dana Carvey doing an impersonation of Dana Carvey doing an impression of someone else.
I thought it was Rick Moranis
rock "journalists" are notoriously phony. And USELESS. Writing about music is akin to dancing about architecture. Thus their reflective (and collective) countenances.
initially, it looked like Bill Gates
Bastards of Young is the greatest music video of all time.
I’ve always liked the Replacements a lot more
@@j11j42 I've always liked the Replacements a lot more than Husker Du
@@t-man5196I’ve always thought Husker Du was a superior band. Westerberg’s solo stuff is great, though.
@codylester854 wow I always liked his solo stuff so much less than his stuff with the Replacements damn
Love the Mats' and Paul may be the singular best songwriter of the 80's. Husker Du were the better band though for a whole myriad of reasons.
@@jat13 and what myriad of reasons might that be?
I love how Husker Du covered the Mary Tyler Moore theme song...!
Broke up 5 years too early.
Would have ruled the 90s.
That’s what The Ramones thought. It didn’t happen.
If you you lived in South Minneapolis/Uptown (like me), you were a Mats fan first. If you lived in North/Northeast Mpls or St.Paul, you were a Husker Du fan first. But if you lived downtown Minneapolis, it was full on war between the 2 of them!!
The replacements were brilliant though.
I really like those guys but for me they only put out a couple of complete albums. Husker on the other hand....
@@TimTrutone HDu has had a much more profound impact on the music scene since the early 80s than the replacements. The replacements were great but husker du is iconic
Paul Westerberg is the voice of my generation. Mould and Hart wrote great songs as well. But, for someone who captured everything I thought and felt during that time, and can still relate to today through song, Westerberg takes the crown. I can’t decide if I truly would want him to remain as prolific as Mould in the current day.
@@TimTrutone you forgot that Tommy is a great bassist too (and that’s putting it mildly)
Overrated
Soul Asylum are one of America's greatest rock and roll bands. No need to resent them because they achieved "success". They have made some really great records.
They are good too.
Soul Asylum are the silicone tits of the Minneapolis set. Looks good but no authenticity. I like a few of their songs but they're not on the level of Husker Du or The Replacements as far as songwriting is concerned.
No their not du and replacements are so much better
@@chrissantos5580 I like The Replacements, really like Westerberg's solo stuff. Soul Asylum has made some great records though, its tough to find a better rock and roll album from top to bottom than And The Horse They Rode In On.
@@spiffy8576 sure it is...Hang Time ! (my fave...) 💣
YA know what I liked about Bob? His loyalty to that Flying V.
Husker Du!! I have not thought of them or heard that name for decades. Fun band.
I'm looking Californiaaaa and feeling Minnesotaaaa oh yeahhhh...
The Replacements not being interviewed during their peak and on public television no less (😂) shows how committed they were to having the audience focus more on their music and not on them.
3:23I never knew Bill Gates was a fan.
That’s Rick Moranis
The best band of the 80's. Never listened to them. Wow, I really lost out.
At 7:00, isn't that just a compliment for The Replacements? 😂
No
I don't think this video is from Dec 3 or 4, 1987 because they played the 7th Street Entry on those dates. Also, if you listen to Every Everything from the bootleg of the 3rd, the audio has Grant making an extra sound after the second line and he doesn't do that here. Bob's playing is different also. Every Everything was not played on the 4th. The last time they played First Ave was the beginning of September 1987; early & late show. I've seen a picture of them from one of those shows and they were wearing different clothes than in the video. It could be they wore different clothes for the other set.
1:05 love this guy got a real Novoselic vibe
Maybe the porn version of Novoselic.
Husker Du was the best ever.
the funniest genre name I ever heard for these guys was “cow punk” and obviously dead milkmen get roped into that sound.
Cowpunk was a real genre though but it had nothing to do with either of those groups. there was a big scene of L.A. punks from the 70s that got burned out on just generic punk and somehow all got inspired by old country and western music and basically they were just post punk bands with a western influence.
These guys are like pub rock pre punk ducks deluxe esc group
Ah…someone who knows what they are talking about. I’m a huge Dr. Feelgood fan. Yup yup. Love all dat sheet.
You forgot modest Bob. 😂🙂👍
Thanks for making the dean's list lol
thank you Grant RIP
Husker dû were great live saw them with the Dead Kennedys
The early and mid eighties.
Crazy stuff.
Greg Norton now owns a restaurant in minn.
I am just realizing that Bob Mould looks like Andy Partridge of XTC.
this sounds so modern (laughter).
Is this remastered?? The quality is really great
The original broadcaster had it streaming on their website from the master tape for a while.
3:24 thought it was Rick Moranis
Cool seeing Lenny Kaye in there
Cobain and Grohl must have really dug this deeply...same attitude etc etc similar personalities
Grant is so f'd up here.... Miss him
What kind of flying v is the guy from husker du playing it isn't a gibson it looks like a knockoff of some kind
Flying V Ibanez Rocket Roll
That Wire shirt tho...😮
Why is Soul Asylum never included in the 80s Minneapolis scene where it is documented?
Perhaps a little unfairly, but Westerberg referred to them as the B-team.
Because they were all about 14 at the time.
Even tho Tommy was 13 in 79 when they formed…
Prince?
@@dublev78 The bulk of the full documentary focuses on Prince.
“Because they’re nuts”
“Paisley park…poop”
What’s the song at 2:00 ?
It's called Find Me. It's from the Flip Your Wig album.
Genius cluster
Where does Prince fit in?
You'll have to seek out the whole documentary for that. It's up on Twin Cities PBS channel.
Thank you@@jat13
The Replacements were always far superior to me. I never liked Husker Du all that much.
Same
Yeah the songwriting is on another planet
Spencer Coe Wow, you really got that one ass backwards.
Drunk apples vs noisy oranges.
@@stephenhawkingsfootballboo7885 I’ll take the drunk apples
6:58 this guy😂
Remember what?
I played in a band for years with a Replacements influenced guy. While I like some of it, I think it’s a tad overrated.
Yeah. Their good songs are really good. Most of their stuff is mediocre though. The first album is still my favorite and it’s super different from the rest.
@@dublev78 Their first album is a fun punk album. Warner Bros. got ahold of them when they released the overproduced
Tim, which sounds like a third rate Springsteen album to me, and I don't like Springsteen. I'll commit major heresy here because I believe Westerberg's solo albums are better than any of the Replacements albums.
I guess it depends on how that influence played out. The songwriting by Westerberg, especially Tim and after, is really good but it's the package deal of chord prgressions, lyrics, and melody. If the influence was just the guitar playing style/sound, meh. Personally, I only like smidgeons of pre-Tim like Can't Hardly Wait. I think it is sort of like - do you like Syd Barrent Floyd or Waters/Gilmour and while it isn't always popular to say, I like the latter just as I like the stuff that is highly Westerberg driven.
@@johnspokus I think Tim is the best album, admittedly I do like Springsteen but I wouldn’t have made that connection
@@bobbab5759 Syd era Floyd is my favorite period.
i never liked the replacements
The more I hear 'em the more I like 'em. Some of it is repetitious, but some is really really good.
Well, that changed my mind. LOL
@@silasmarner7586 Melody itself is repetitious, if you don't like it, go listen to some free jazz.
i always liked the replacements
Mmmkay. Cool?
Overrated and dull.
