Lads, I’m hooked on Rum, Sodomy and The Lash. I am unable to stop listening to it. Possibly the best album I’ve ever listened to. It’s beyond poetic.
It’s incredible
Not Pogues but cracking tune and video
Billy saw a copper and he hit him in the knee
And he took him down from six foot to five foot three
Then he hit him fair and square in the do-re-mi
That copper won’t be having any family
cheers mate
glad i have had a positive influence on you
Heard the men coming home from the fair in Shinrone
Their accents Tipperary wherever they roam
Is one of the great couplets
Their hearts in Tipperary no?
I pulled you up on this on TFK 40 years ago.
You will eventually concede that I have the correct version
Listinening party for Rum Sodomy and the Lash on Twitter at 10pm.
what a fantastic idea for twitter
crikes guys, i love the pogues
I saw the charlatans long time ago not a bad band. Tim has gone way up in my estimation now
That was class, Burgess clearly a sound man, Cait, James and Spider were there for the hour, brilliant. They’ve agreed to do Roses in the weeks ahead, just after listening to Rum Sodomy back to back, a fucking masterpiece
Hon Burgess, I was a fan of the maschester bands.
A pair of brown eyes is a masterpiece
It’s a gem. The lyrics are hard bet.
Tim Burgess (who seems to listen to a lot of music) ranked it in his Top Ten and said when he listened to it it was number one.
I think I prefer Rainy Night in soho.
