The Medusa Fora

I have listened to the pogues for a long time and have most of their albums but for some reason I never really got into the popes and I'd really like to cos the stuff I've heard is great. I just don't know which one i should try to get a hold of...recomendations?

The choice is not wide enough to stump I'm afraid
Two studio album with Shane, one "solo", and two live - with Shane and without him...

If you are pondering over studio album with Shane I would recommend Crock of Gold. It was the first I got. But Snake is Ok too (specially if you prefer tough "rock-n-roll" sound)...

You should try to get your hands on a bootleg like meself!

I have a nice mixture of popes stuff and pogues - live!

Oh the summer of 95' eh?

Thanks, I'll probably try to get both the studio ablums with Shane. I'll wait awhile for any live one cos i have a live shane and the popes dvd already.
