[tweetmeme]Since reuniting last year for a haphazard run of festivals and one-offs, The Replacements have recorded a covers EP and have more recently suggested they’ll record a new album together. In what could be the first step toward that, the band has posted a new piece of music on Soundcloud… of all things, a 24-minute mostly instrumental jazz-improv jam.
Stream the full track below.
The recording, which appears to have been uploaded on Dec. 17, was discovered Monday by Brad Searles, according to Pitchfork. The track is largely instrumental, but Paul Westerberg starts piping in around 16:30, intoning various phrases, including the song’s title.
The recording credits on Soundcloud read:
