Scott’s obsession with W.B. Yeats is evident in a catalogue of lyrics peppered with direct or indirect nods to a burning, galloping Celtic mysticism that is typical of the poet’s earlier work. He has also remarked in interviews that this project has been on the boil for 20 years, so there is no doubting the passion and intent behind it. However, the very shape the project takes – an attempt to graft largely unaltered tranches of Yeats’ poetry to original Waterboys’ melodies – is one that leaves it at risk of sounding clumsy, overblown, or even pretentious. Yet, for the most part it succeeds and the points where it doesn’t quite convince can be chalked down as noble failures. \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.mikescottwaterboys.com\/\"\u003ehttp:\/\/www.mikescottwaterboys.com\/ \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1. “The Hosting Of The Shee”\u003cbr\u003e 2. “Song Of Wandering Aengus”\u003cbr\u003e 3. “News For The Delphic Oracle”\u003cbr\u003e 4. “A Full Moon In March”\u003cbr\u003e 5. “Sweet Dancer”\u003cbr\u003e 6. “White Birds”\u003cbr\u003e 7. “The Lake Isle Of Innisfree”\u003cbr\u003e 8. “Mad As The Mist And Snow”\u003cbr\u003e 9. “Before The World Was Made”\u003cbr\u003e 10. “September 1913″\u003cbr\u003e 11. “An Irish Airman Foresees His Death”\u003cbr\u003e 12. “Politics”\u003cbr\u003e 13. “Let The Earth Bear Witness”\u003cbr\u003e 14. “The Faery’s Last Song”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Puck Records","offers":[{"title":"2011","offer_id":149119352,"sku":"","price":168.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/2072\/products\/skaermbillede_2011_10_26_kl._19.43.38.png?v=1571438598","url":"https:\/\/recordpusher.live\/products\/waterboys-an-appointment-with-mr-yeats","provider":"RecordPusher - International Vinyl Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
