Waterboys - Windmill Lane Sessions [1987-1988]

The recording sessions for the Waterboys Fisherman's Blues, a transition album taking the band from rock music to folk music were lengthy and produced a great deal of music. The sessions began at Windmill Lane Studio in Dublin and lasted from 1986 to 1988. Mike Scott describes the process; "We started recording our fourth album in early '86 and completed it 100 songs and 2 years later". This is a splendid selection taken from these mammoth and otherwise unavailable sessions.
