Trouble Boys

Discover the inner workings of one of the greatest rock 'n' roll bands of the twentieth century in this definitive biography. Key members of The Replacements, including reclusive singer-songwriter Paul Westerberg and bassist Tommy Stinson, contribute to this intimate portrait that delves into the primal factors and forces, such as addiction, abuse, and fear, that shaped one of the most brilliant and notoriously self-destructive groups of all time. Author Bob Mehr based this epic on a decade of research and reporting, hundreds of interviews, and full access to The Replacements' archives. The result is a tragic, comic, and ultimately triumphant story that is anything but a conventional band bio.
