That sounds quality. Think I was more thinking along the lines of the fact that it was dialogue from the Good, The Bad and the Ugly however its probably a coincidence and also im not actually sure which piece of music came first anyway haha.


Oh right, gotcha. I thought you meant having sound clips from movies in general. Didn't know " The good, the bad and the ugly " was on the BAD tracks.
I think the " Straight to hell " soundtrack where the Pogues version of it came from was in 1987 ? So I would say BAD were a good 3 or 4 years earlier than that. Jonesy had left the Clash since '82 I think so BAD were around '84 I'd guess.

I also love the long mix of " Young Ned.." with the opening dance bit and then the band come in with the main melody of the song. Great to sing along to as well with Terry's original vocal dropping in and out. Probably one of the few people who love " The good, the bad and the ugly " as well. It wouldn't work on an album I don't think but on it's own it's great. Surprised it didn't make the box-set.


WTF ??? My apologies, of COURSE it made the fuckin' box-set. That's where I have it, for God's sake ! My mistake. I think I read somewhere that the " Straight to hell " soundtrack ( which I had originally on cassette ) was re-issued but " The good, the bad and the ugly " was dropped from the new edition. I could be sooo wrong on that though but I think that's what I was thinking of when I said it didn't make the box-set. It's been a long day,ok?

Good, The Bad and The Ugly is quality. With leaving my vinyl in my mothers house it was an absolute gem to hear on the box set. I always felt that maybe BAD nicked a few ideas of this for Meidine Show, EMC2 etc etc with the insert of dialogue from the movies etc etc

I realize there are some on this board who feel otherwise, but i *love* all the dance mixes. Exactly for the reason you've said - it goes off to where it goes, but then snaps back in to remind you it IS the Pogues. Like when the Philip/Spider/Kirsty (think i have that right) vocals come back on "If I Should Fall From Grace".

Ozomatli yes, thank you.

Ozomatli are, as a whole, a band I've always enjoyed. They're an interesting mix of social/racial backgrounds and a raft of musical influences. I didn't realize they'd covered "Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah", but I can't say I'm surprised. Pretty good version, at least from the sample...

The Ozomatli cover is really entertaining. Sort of a young Los Lobos covering Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah.

Ozomatli?



My guess would be Ollin, as they are the only LA band I know that are know for covering Pogues tracks.Think they still do a Annual Pogues Tribute@ Spaceland . Have a few cds by the band and all have been worth a listen .2007: San Patricios (EP) being one in point.
