WATERBOYS - BEST OF THE WATERBOYS 81-90 Vinyl LP

Expected: 11/6/26

The Best of The Waterboys '81-'90 is a 1991 collection covering the formative years of the group between 1981 to 1990. Selling over 100,000 copies in the UK on its original release, the collection moves from their rock origins through to their Celtic folk-rock periods personally selected by band leader Mike Scott.

The long overdue repress features the timeless classics "The Whole of The Moon" and "Fisherman's Blues," along with renowned tracks of their early period, including "A Girl called Johnny," "All the Things She Gave Me," and "A Bang on the Ear," along with an exclusive outtake "Killing My Heart" and a rousing live version of "Old England."
