underlying Trad. tunes in Pogues songs

Post Sun Aug 07, 2011 1:18 pm

Hey folks. I'm curious if there is a database (or thread) anywhere which outlines which traditional tunes other Pogues original (songs) are built around?

For example, Kesh Jig as the foundation(?) for Sea Shanty.

Thanks,
Coop

PS, I can't log in. I exceeded maximum number of attempts, and though I got a new password, and am answering the security questions, it's still not working. Also, the "image" from which I need to enter the text isn't coming up.

I've tried to compile a list at my website: http://www.dzm.com/~zuzana/pogues-borrowedmusic.html
Any other suggestions are welcome! :)

(As for the login problems, what happens when you try to log in with your registered username? Does it say you have a wrong password? You can send me an e-mail with your username to zuzana(at)pogues.com and I can assign you a new password to try logging in with).
