Description
Modern Blues (2015) by The Waterboys is a rich, rootsy journey that blends folk-rock with soulful Americana, recorded in Nashville and steeped in Mike Scott’s poetic storytelling. Released on the Harlequin and Clown label, this album marked a bold sonic shift, embracing a full-band sound with a Southern flair while retaining the lyrical mysticism that defines the band’s legacy.
Product Description:
Packaged in a 6-panel cardboard sleeve, the CD release of Modern Blues captures The Waterboys in a vibrant, electric phase. With Mike Scott at the helm, joined by Memphis keyboardist "Brother" Paul Brown and Muscle Shoals bassist David Hood, the album pulses with raw energy and spiritual introspection. From the swagger of “Still a Freak” to the cinematic sweep of “Long Strange Golden Road,” it’s a record that feels both timeless and freshly inspired.
