Our Take

The Waterboys - "An Appointment With Mr. Yeats" If W.B. Yeats were still with us today, he'd likely be throwing shapes to this album. The Waterboys, led by the indefatigable Mike Scott, have taken on the challenge of setting the poetry of the famous Irish poet to music. And boy, do they deliver the goods. From the first track, "The Hosting of the Shee," you can feel the magic in the air. Scott's haunting vocals and the swirling instrumentation create a mystical atmosphere that perfectly complements Yeats' ethereal words. The band doesn't shy away from experimenting with different genres, blending folk, rock, and even a touch of jazz to bring Yeats' poetry to life in a way that feels fresh and innovative. Standout tracks include "News for the Delphic Oracle" and "September 1913," which showcase the band's versatility and Scott's lyrical prowess. The Waterboys have truly outdone themselves with this album, showing that poetry and music can coexist in perfect harmony. So, grab your finest tweed jacket, pour yourself a glass of whiskey, and treat yourself to "An Appointment With Mr. Yeats." You won't be disappointed.
