70s Best Replacement player ever.

I'd say the best replacement player ever has to be, David Gilmore. he replaced Syd. then helped Roger Waters produce 4 of the greatest rock lps of all time. DSOTM, Welcome to the Machine and the Wall. so then he goes on w/o roger to produce 2 multi platinum lp. who else is close.

Check out The Replacements at 7th Street Entry on YouTube. Part 2 is some of the best Punk you'll ever hear.
