Found a tape back in college with The Pogues on one side and Black 47 on the other. Needless to say, it never made it back to it's original owner. I listened to that thing till it wore out.
Forgot about The Pogues till I found "Essential" in a friends CD collection and burned a copy (I couldn't find it anywhere else). Love every song on it and have been known to tear up during "Fairytale of New York" and "Thousands are Sailing."
Funny story: I was driving my Mom somewhere and had The Pogues playing in my truck. She loved it, so I got her a couple CD's for Christmas. Mom rocks.
