Album DescriptionAvailable in:
Sorry Ma, Forgot to Take Out the Trash is the first studio album by the American punk rock band The Replacements. It was released on August 25, 1981.
The album contained the single "I'm In Trouble" (backed with "If Only You Were Lonely", an album outtake) which was released the same month as the album.
Outtakes from this album include (but are not limited to): "Like You", "Skip It", "If Only You Were Lonely", "Junior's Got A Gun", "D.E.A.D.", "Staples In Her Stomach" and "Off Your Pants".
The track "Somethin' to Dü" is a reference to the band Hüsker Dü, contemporaries of The Replacements and their Saint Paul counterparts.
The track "Johnny's Gonna Die" is a reference to influential guitarist Johnny Thunders of the Heartbreakers and New York Dolls. The song refers to his increased heroin addiction and resultant sloppy live performances. Thunders died, possibly of drug-related causes, in 1991.
The album was remastered and reissued by Rhino Entertainment on April 22, 2008, with 13 additional tracks.
