Release Notes:

Mike Scott had been pursuing his grandiose "big
music" since he founded the Waterboys, so it came as
a shock when he scaled back the group's sound for
the Irish and English folk of Fisherman's Blues.
Although the arena-rock influences have been toned
down, Scott's vision is no less sweeping or
romantic, making even the simplest songs on
Fisherman's Blues feel like epics. Nevertheless, the
album is the Waterboys' warmest and most rewarding
record, boasting a handful of fine songs ("And a
Bang on the Ear," the ominous "We Will Not Be
Lovers," "Has Anybody Here Seen Hank?," and the
title track), as well as a surprisingly successful
cover of Van Morrison's breathtaking "Sweet Thing."
