Experience the essential evolution of The Waterboys with this remastered EMI reissue, pairing two of the band's most pivotal albums: This Is the Sea (1985) and Fisherman’s Blues (1988).
This Is the Sea captures Mike Scott at the peak of his early "Big Music" ambitions—a sonic mountain of brass, strings, and sweeping romantic energy. It serves as both a grand finale to his early rock sensibilities and a bridge toward his next creative epiphany.
Fisherman’s Blues documents a profound shift, as Scott and his collaborators (including the essential violinist Steve Wickham) moved toward a deeper, roots-inspired grounding. Steeped in tradition yet brimming with new life, it offers a wider range of inspiration—from the lonesome country blues of "Has Anybody Here Seen Hank" to a definitive rendition of Van Morrison’s "Sweet Thing."
Key Highlights:
- Format: Remastered CD Reissue Box Set.
- Significant Eras: Features the transition from the atmospheric, brass-laden landscapes of This Is the Sea to the folk-rock vitality of Fisherman’s Blues.
- Essential Listening: Includes iconic tracks like "The Whole of the Moon," "Old England," and "World Party."
This collection is an indispensable document for fans looking to explore the transformative journey of one of rock’s most adventurous bands.
