Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Though later Pogues albums acquired a depth and sophistication they were never given proper credit for, Red Roses For Me--their rough, raffish debut--really is the Pogues of popular repute: raucous and unsophisticated, powered by copious quantities of alcohol and a determination to prove that their twin loves of Irish folk and English punk could be reconciled. Red Roses For Me is a triumphant argument in favour of the proposition: at this early stage in the Pogues' development, they approach their instruments with rather more enthusiasm than expertise, flailing away at their banjos and bodhrans as if trying to punish them for something. Fortunately, the mania thus engendered is the perfect accompaniment to the songs of Shane MacGowan who, at the beginnings of his learning curve as a songwriter, is dealing fairly exclusively in demented, bull-at-a-gate-paced drinking songs. This, similarly, is no problem at all: he's rather good at them. "Dark Streets Of London", "Streams Of Whiskey" and "Boys From County Hell" should all satisfy the curiosity of anyone who wonders what might have resulted if Brendan Behan had ever joined The Dubliners. --Andrew Mueller
