The Waterboys Artist Snapshot:

Scottish folk-rockers the Waterboys started out in the '80s as proponents of what came to be known (after the name of one of their songs) as "the big music," an anthemic, widescreen vision replete with earnest statements and grand-scale production. By the time of 1988's FISHERMAN'S BLUES, the Waterboys had rediscovered their Celtic folk roots and reinvented their sound accordingly. By the '90s, the band was rocking harder, but leader Mike Scott broke up the group after '93's DREAM HARDER and made a couple of quiet, acoustic records before reconvening the Waterboys at the start of the next decade.

Review

Rolling Stone - 3.5 Stars - Very Good
Q (p.124) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "FISHERMAN'S BLUES shares the same spiritual rock space as U2's late-'80s work, but with one essential difference: it's rooted in fiddle-driven Irish folk music."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.119) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[The album] packs class from port to starboard, the singer tapping the incantatory power of WB Yeats, then spitting bile on the dizzying, inspired 'We Will Not Be Lovers'..."

Title Note

The Waterboys: Mike Scott (vocals, guitar); Anthony Thistlethwaite (mandolin); Steve Wickham (fiddle); Colin Blakey (piano); Trevor Hutchinson (bass guitar); Fran Breen, Peter McKinney, David Ruffy (drums); Noel Bridgeman (tambourine).
