Songs For Slim is the outcome of The Replacements reuniting to help raise money for former guitarist Slim Dunlap, who suffered a stroke in early 2012. A collection of covers (two of which are Dunlap originals), the EP is quite excellent, far better than their last two full-lengths. Echoing Alex Chilton's Like Flies on Sherbert (a big influence on Paul Westerberg), it finds the group lovingly embracing all the slop and irreverence at the heart of the American rock 'n' roll tradition. The set ends in appropriate fashion, with a shambolic takedown of pop standard "Everything's Coming Up Roses."
