Finally got 'Hell's Ditch'...

Post Tue Jan 04, 2005 9:32 pm

Anyone else had problems ordering the new Hell's Ditch from Amazon.co.uk? The first time, they sent me Pogue Mahone by mistake - then when I sent that back, they sent me the same thing again as a 'replacement'.

I notice that they've now switched round the album titles on the website (but left the artwork and tracklistings as they were). Confusing, huh?

Finally got sick of fannying about, asked for a refund and bought it from HMV today for £3 more.

It definitely has a more eastern feel to it than the precvious ones.Especially Nepalese,the locals in the Himalayas heard the Pogues from my crappy tape player and thopught it was Nepalese folk music! Personally I cna identify with
Sunnyside Of tthe Street
"Ended up in Nepal,Up on a roof with nothing at all"
cos thats where i got back into the Pogues after not listening to them for a couple of years.Its been relentless since then at that was 99 and i have lost friends and really pissed neighbours off since then but what the fuck?
I like the one about "Woo,she gave me Mekong Whiskey
Woo she gave me Hong Kong flu,woo she gave me Mekong Whiskey ,put me on a plane to khatmandu"What is that one?
Theres refernces to Pataya beach asswell in Thailand where aqll the sex tourists go-"Singha beer,Singha beer,..............ah its good to be back.
Anyway Singha beer and Mekong whisky are the main brands in Thailand but they are rough as arse .
P.S In India stay away from a beer called Sandpaper, lol Sandpiper

Why does every site I go to have Hell's Ditch either mixed up with Pogue Mahone or Waiting for Herbs? If I order Pogue Mahone from Amazon.co.uk will I get Hell's Ditch?

Looks like there is a jinx on Hell’s Ditch – after experiencing jubilation that I got the right CD (God bless Czech internet shops!), I’ve found out that one page appears twice in the booklet while another one is missing. Well, what can you expect of an album with a name like that...
