Greetings,

In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever <http://www.furious.com/perfect/index0223.html>, you'll find (among other things):



THE REPLACEMENTS
Interview- Slim Dunlap speaks, by John Wisniewski
"Bob Dunlap was a Minneapolis fixture who played in indie rock bands and worked at the fabled First Avenue club before he was asked to join the Replacements in 1987, after Bob Stinson was fired from the group, playing alongside founders Paul Westerberg, Tommy Stinson and Chris Mars. Rechristened as "Slim," he toured and played on the final two 'Mats albums, 'Don't Tell A Soul' (1989) and 'All Shook Down' (1990). After the 'Mats imploded, he joined the Georgia Satellites and did his own solo albums."


SOUL ASLYUM
Interview: Twin Cities indie, pre-grunge, by Pete Crigler
"For a while, from about 1992-1996, Soul Asylum were inescapable. Through the efforts of songwriter/singer Dave Pirner and powerhouse guitarist Dan Murphy, the band made some of the greatest songs of the era. Coming up in the Minneapolis punk scene of the eighties and hooking up with the legendary indie Twin/Tone, the band had paid their dues by the time success came calling in 1992 and they lived up to the hype."
