    RIP Shane MacGowen, you were an amazing songwriter and frontman. I am grateful for having had the privilege of seeing The Pogues live in the early '90's. There you were in all your glory, with your bottle of whisky in hand, getting harder and harder to understand as the night wore on, and i loved every second of it. Fly high, sir, away from the pain and troubles of this world, to the next.

      @jamesrockwood9022 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think you're right. The flutes and whistles went into drum and bugle/military march tunes, which had a big influence on Celt and prison work songs and blues music. A lot of Scandinavian / Appalachian influence was in country music, too. Shane definitely assembled his influences historically.

      That'd be "Rum, Sodomy," "Red Roses" and "If I Should Fall," am I right? I agree with you wholeheartedly on those: "Peace and Love" is very good, but not in their class.

    Lived my whole life in Alabama, saw The Pogues on this tour in Birmingham. Shane was one of the two drunkest performers I ever saw, I guess tied with the first time I saw Paul Westerberg with The Replacements, and yet they both completely delivered great performances. I'm surprised he made it this long. Anyway, an amazing songwriter. Hit every emotional note. This remains one of my all-time favorite albums. I think The Broad Majestic Shannon is my absolute favorite. I would be fine if they played that when I was dying myself, but I doubt anyone will think to do it.

    I my hard driving party days I had to eventually lock this album away. If I put this on when I came in from the bar half toasted it always meant playing it on repeat until the sun came up. My liver eventually told me to cut it out! RIP Shane. A piece of divine light made human 🙏🌹
