songwriter Mike Scott, the group's only constant member - with the
supporting musicians ever changing around him
1988's Fisherman's Blues is the Waterboys's 4th album, for whichthe band were
joined by traditional Irish players over a 3 year period, recording a mix of Irish trad,
country, Soul and Rock, resulting in a stripped- down, folky sound which was a
marked step away from the "big music" he founded and pursued in previous
albums.
It has been called their 'warmest and most rewarding record'.
The album has cut at half-speed by Barry Grint at AIR Studios, London.
