About
The Waterboys – Fisherman’s Blues
Fisherman’s Blues marks a defining moment in The Waterboys’ catalogue, capturing Mike Scott’s shift from widescreen rock towards a more decadent blend of Celtic folk, roots music and poetic songwriting. Recorded mainly in Ireland, the album is warm, expansive and deeply atmospheric, featuring timeless tracks such as Fisherman’s Blues, The Whole of the Moon and Sweet Thing. Long regarded as a cornerstone of late-80s British songwriting, it remains one of the band’s most celebrated and emotionally resonant releases.
This 2024 reissue presents the album on heavyweight vinyl with premium presentation, making it a standout edition for collectors and long-time fans.
