Let It Be (Deluxe Edition) will be available on 4LPs and 3CDs and includes the album alongside unreleased studio and live recordings.\n\nBy the time Let It Be was recorded, The Replacements had nearly outgrown their rough-edged hardcore beginnings. In their place were songs about longing, identity, and the uneasy shift from youth to adulthood. Tracks like \"Unsatisfied\" and \"Answering Machine\" embody that evolution, while \"Seen Your Video\" preserved their instinct for irreverence.\n\nThe response was immediate, earning a rare A+ from Robert Christgau in The Village Voice and four stars from Rolling Stone. Its critical reputation only snowballed from there, eventually landing it on countless lists of the greatest albums ever made. https://tinyurl.com/y3unc4wv", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
