NEW VINYL LP ON RHINO 2015
180 GRAM VINYL
Soulful and soused, usually in equal parts, The Pogues’ music combined the youthful spirit of punk with ancient Celtic melodies to create a sublime racket that’s been described as the Sex Pistols setting fire to The Chieftains. The Pogues - vocalist Shane MacGowan, Spider Stacy on tin whistle, accordion player James Fearnley, Jeremy “Jem” Finer on banjo, drummer Andrew David Ranken, and bassist Cait O’Riordan — made their debut in 1984 with Red Roses For Me. The album’s 13 songs established the band’s unique sound as it mixed MacGowan's radical originals - “Transmetropolitan” and “Dark Streets Of London” - with traditional Irish tunes - “The Auld Triangle” and “Poor Paddy.”
