I go for All Shook Down. The wet dogs epitomize the band.

and here I though you were talking about cover songs. okay. Fav album cover - Pleased to Meet Me (first one I bought and I thought visually represented I.O.U very well)
Favorite "Mats cover song.....might be "Another Girl, Another Planet". I must admit that I heard the Mats version first, but after hearing and loving the original, I think it is a brilliant cover of a great, under-represented song.

I'd go with Sorry Ma. I think it represents the album the best and has that scrappy punk quality. Man, for being my favorite band they have some bad album art.

Without a doubt, Pleased To Meet Me.
The front cover epitomizes The Replacements, the two hands a perfect metaphor of the band. And it turns out Westerberg was the actual hand model for the grubby side.

They were hit and miss...I think the cover art for "Sorry, Ma" "Hootenany" "Let It Be" (Sorry, I know that was supposed to be let out of the equation) and "Pleased To Meet Me" are great...It's only Tim and DTAS that don't measure up...I sometimes give a pass to "Tim", because it looks so Orwellian...And the DTAS thing: they were obviously trying to push Paul ("Plus, there's two or three other relatively cool guys in there)...ASD is funny as fuck, and so appropriate at that stage of their career..."Here's two wet miserable dogs who do not have a home"...Heh...
