The Pogues - Red Rose for Me [RECYCLED RED VINYL] (LP)

On 15th October 1984, The Pogues released their debut album Red Roses for Me. To celebrate the 40th anniversary, we'll be releasing a 2CD set with a version of the 2013 remix plus a bonus disc of B-sides and BBC sessions from 1984, and a special LP on recycled red vinyl.

After four decades, Red Roses for Me is still celebrated as a groundbreaking debut album from an unlikely group of supposed ne'er-do-wells from London's Kings Cross in the convulsive aftermath of the re-election of the Thatcher government. The album mashes traditional songs and instrumentals - about death and drink, love and London - with those of frontman Shane MacGowan's - and all fuelled by the punk ethos.
