5 out of 5 stars Early Obituary: Shane MacGowan, Celtic Shaman.......2007-07-13

I am writing this review in the form of an early obituary for Pogues frontman and main songwriter Shane MacGowan, since he is one of those people everyone expects to hear is dead any day now. Shane was one of those rare souls who followed what I call the Shaman's Path, one that was trod before him by Arthur Rimbaud, Aleister Crowley, and Jim Morrison, among others. The Shaman's Path leads first to brilliant actualization of the self but finally to misery, madness, and frequently early death.

The album "If I Should Fall From Grace With God" is the Pogues' most fully realized work with MacGowan, and most of the tracks are classic pieces of Irish folk fusion. Stand-outs are the title track, a fatalistic lyric on mortal and spiritual peril laid over a rollicking rhythm and accordion arrangement; and "Fairy Tale of New York", a kind of vulgar, piano-driven Christmas carol about failed expectations in the New World, on which MacGowan duets with Kirsty MacColl.

But nothing on this album changes the fact that the Pogues' legacy, like the Doors' before them, was built on their singer's slow suicide by drink as he followed the Shaman's Path to its ultimate destination in an untimely grave.

Rest in peace, Shane, and I doubt you ever fell from grace.

Still their best album.
Good bonus tracks!
These guys rock harder at age 50 than I've ever rocked in my life.

5 out of 5 stars Hot Stuff Either Way You Slice It!.......2007-03-14

The Pogues "If I Should Fall From Grace with God" is a masterpiece of its kind. Can not go wrong with this one. I feel a little sad that this band could not stand the test of time but I do realize that true genius is unpredictable at best and you can tell that the lead vocals is one of the type of genius that anything can happen. This is a tight band with that special flavor that comes from their side of he world. No weakness here, when these guides get going all hell breaks loose and I am looking to get drunk and buy a pack of Marlboro Reds and maybe take away the filters, that's how rowdy the s..t gets. A true pleasure to own. Ownership satisfaction do not get any better than this, can get to be the same but not better. This album stays in my world till I kick, and everytime I throw a party it definitely enters the rotation but right around the time when the party has heated up. This is no lukewarm affair and should not be considered as such. Get the Babes happy and drunk, get the dudes saturated with some high quality tap beer or whatever, really, and let loose the whole album. Stick with friends when playing the Pogues at least this way the fighting that might ensue will be in good cheer and later friendly hugs! 5 stars for the Pogues "If I Should Fall From Grace With God" What a Title, What a Record! Stay down with your bad selves, Pogues!!! Go Go Go!

5 out of 5 stars In the all-time top twenty 'rock' albums.......2007-01-30

When they first appeared, people referred to the Pogues as an 'Irish punk' outfit. Since then, I've heard them recategorized half a dozen times, but nomenclature aside, there's no disputing what the Pogues brought to music in the eighties and nineties.

Few artists communicate as effectively as Shane MacGowan, few voices in music are as immediately recognizeable as his. His lyrical gifts outpace even our most prolific songwriters. When MacGowan writes for himself, he ultimately writes for all of us.

I'm not one of those hyphenated Americans that need go back eight generations for an identity, but when I hear this music, it awakens something inside of me, something I suspect not even Ellis island can erase.

5 out of 5 stars I've Fallen, And I Can't Get Up!.......2007-01-20

The world is better place since "If I should Fall from the Grace With God" has been re-mastered and re-issued -- this is the Pogues at their roarin' best! In fact, with this re-issue you won't care if you've fallen and can't get back up-- you'll be havin' too much fun listenin' to this classic disc that has been out of circulation and missing too long on the out print lists. Fall out with this one for best of class good sounds!

5 out of 5 stars Great Album- Eclectic and Original.......2007-06-17

Shane MacGowan's voice cuts through the title track and sets up what is a fabulous collection of songs that range from rollicking Irish/Punk to folksy ballads. Not a bad cut and just an all around great recording. The Pogues are the real deal and this is one of their best.

5 out of 5 stars Need a pick-me-up? Buy this album........2007-04-22

I don't usually review classics- works of literature or music whose greatness is so self-evident and widely acknowledged as to render any acclaim of mine as superfluous, unnecessary and probably inadequate. I mean, what could I possibly say about "The Oresteia" or "Der Ring des Nibelungen" that hasn't been said before and that would do it justice or add to the general enlightenment? Anyway, I usually find that there are more than enough people on amazon.com who feel the need to tell the world that Shakespeare is "a great writer" or that Mozart's tunes are "awesome". Such is how I viewed "If I Should Fall From Grace of God" until I surfed onto the product overview at amazon and saw that only a measly 13 people had seen fit to praise this extraordinary album. So in the interest of promoting incredible music, let me just say that this album is one of the classics. I've seen it on more than one published list of "Greatest albums of the 80s" or "Desert Island albums". This is one of those albums which make you sit up and say "Wow- I've never heard anything like this before", which is what I said when I first heard it in the early 90s. Raucous, poetic, funny, head banging, joyful, beautiful- it is the Pogues' best album and one of the all-time greats.

5 out of 5 stars Just a great damn CD and remastering!.......2007-04-13

I've loved this CD since I bought the original relase around 1990, and decided to pay some more money for the remastered version. Wow, what a job the studio did remastering it! A lot of care seems to have gone into the process, and the sound is almost three dimensional: the clarity of each instrument, the separation, the pounding bass... The highpoint for me on this CD is "Thousands are Sailing," and it's an absolute pleasure to hear it remastered.

If you love the Pogues, but already own the original release of this CD, consider repurchasing the remastered version; you'll be very pleased you did.

5 out of 5 stars This Great Band's Greatest Album.......2006-12-23

Every Shane MacGowan Pogues' album was terrific, but this one stands apart from the others. Some of their biggest hits and some of their rocking best. Not one track that falls below the category of great. I defy anybody to say one bad thing about this album. "I am Francico Vasquez Garcia..."

5 out of 5 stars No Falling From Grace, Here.......2006-09-14

I love this album! A former co-worker of mine turned me onto it in the early 90's and I will be forever grateful to him for it.
There is not one bad cut, but I especially like the title cut, Fiesta, Medley, and Turkish Song of the Damned.
One song, however, stands out above the rest - fans know what song that is - Fairytale of New York. Kirsty MacColl - I am still sad to hear of her passing a number of years back - duets with Shane MacGowan on this beautiful Christmas story tune, one that creates instant visualization in one's mind. It's an absolute favorite.
This music is a blast to listen to - upbeat, punk, rock, Irish, pub - a mix of so many different styles that it is hard to decribe. But, it gets your heart beating.
If you have never heard The Pogues before, Shane's vocals may initially catch you off guard. But, give him (and the band) a chance.
Truly different, and truly amazing.

    5 out of 5 stars Sir Noel Coward is KING!.......2007-01-09

    Very few of us lesser mortals can compete with the genius of Noel Coward, however we certainly can enjoy it! A master of lyric, pun, innendo, and rhyme, Noel will keep all laughing throughout this collection.

    5 out of 5 stars Caberet at its Best.......2006-07-11

    This is a live recording of a Noel Coward performance in the 1950's at the Desert Inn. The songs are quite a bit racier than his usual studio recordings from the 1920's and 30's; all very witty and very fun. A stand out performance of Cole Porter's "Let's Do It" features references to everyone from Somerset Maugham to Senator Joe McCarthy. Unique.

    5 out of 5 stars witty, classic genius.......2005-12-13

    My old LP was lost in a recent move! I have loved this album along with "Noel and Gertie" since I first heard it at the age of twelve. Sir Noel Coward is not to be missed.

    5 out of 5 stars Les's New CD~Borrowed and Blue.......2001-08-22

    Completing the adage, Les Sampou's just released CD, "Borrowed and Blue"is comprised of "Old and New" songs. Some of the songs are ones Les borrowed from blues masters while the rest are self penned. Her newest song starts this collection. Lorraine is a song that Les wrote in the pouring rain and about a child who was born in, and seemed to bring with her the rain. Les intricately and perfectly entwines her vocals with crystalline, syncopated guitar picking, slides and seamless transitions. Like the rain, you can't help but get caught in this new, clever song that Les wrote and performs.

    "Borrowed and Blue" is exceptionally well crafted. Les's performances flow so naturally. She firmly yet softly captivates with the pure, simple elegance of her "plug and play" performances. When you listen to Les on this CD, you feel like you are sitting with her (where she made the CD) in a quiet living room. It is an intimate recording in which Les effortlessly delivers a seemingly private performance that you know comes straight from her heart.

    This CD showcases Les's god-given talent for expressing deep and broad ranges of emotion in music and poetry, be it her own or of other great masters. It centers on the solo feel of just Les and her guitar and gives her performances an entirely noiseless backdrop. The result is a listening experience so personal that you may be prompted as I was to put on headphones. You can't help, but feel that you want an equally noiseless backdrop within which to hear Les's sublime gifts as a guitarist, vocalist and clever, rich, and profound lyricist.

    You can almost feel and visualize her fingers picking and traveling effortlessly and seamlessly up and down the chords and chord changes. Her perfect guitar playing from picking to sliding to strumming, was splendid with its upright, melodic inflections and tones. Her accompanying vocals are of a sophisticated, albeit white palette, but she "must have paid her dues" `cause Les performs her own amazing slice of soulful blues here. On "Borrowed and Blue" Les Sampou delivers a "bassy", heart-felt, emotive, and often "tuneful", tapping collection of blues songs. This is a "must have" CD for anyone who has ever sung or even had the slightest inclination towards the blues. Once in a "blue" moon, music comes together so beautifully and feels so right that it makes me howl out loud. Les hit those same chords in me with B&B, but so soulfully, like a "howling moon" that moves you deep inside.

    5 out of 5 stars She's awesome.......1999-03-31

    I really can't add much to the excellent reviews posted above. This is truly an exceptional disc.

    5 out of 5 stars This lady can play..........1998-10-03

    Great lyrics and the lady can play that guitar...when she tells a story, you can feel it...and if you get the chance to see her in concert like I did, check her out...I repeat...the lady CAN PLAY!!!

    5 out of 5 stars A must-have even for NON-blues lovers!.......1998-09-07

    Les Sampou is a wisp of a woman with a powerhouse voice. She also plays a fine, intricate guitar, and tells a story that will pick you up bodily and carry you miles away. In FALL FROM GRACE, her second release, each cut shows her finest gifts in the very best lights.

    The liner notes begin, "Les Sampou is tough. She's also tender, and smart. And she plays some very tasty guitar. And damn, can she write a song." Elijah Wald's essay suggests the same spare phrasing that hallmark the compositions on this album. From the opening Notes of "Holy Land," a lazy ballad of pretentious white trash, she hooks the listener and starts reeling. The broader strumming accompanying "Alibis" -- "My dad told me that you can't steal second with your foot on first / And I reckon he's right"-- opens out into full instrumentation as the passion builds. "Things I Should Have Said" takes the experience we've all had, of re-thinking a situation we could have handled better, and paints it in the context of a singer's angry musings on a cross-country drive. The soft yearning of a homebound traveller is delicately embellished in "Home Again." And again, you're right there with her, almost unconscious of the deft production so ably supporting the fine story-telling.

    Sampou is adept at vivid imagery, despite a bare minimum of flowery phrases. Whether it's the childhood exhilaration of "Ride the Line," or the bitter discovery of her best friend's homosexuality and her own betrayal ("Flesh and Blood"), she makes the experiences our own. The aching exhaustion of "I Already Know" paints a woman persuading her heart to let go when her mind knows she should. "String of Pearls" uses the metaphor of an heirloom necklace for the values we don't always appreciate until we've proven their worth to ourselves. "Two Strong Arms" is a gritty anthem of a woman giving herself a stern talking-to-- this one's a personal favorite. (An excerpt doesn't do it justice, folks: you just have to hear it.)

    I doubt we live in a world where a petite white woman will stand beside B.B. King as a blues icon-- and even Les herself might cringe at the pretension of that image. But for my money, this lady has the stuff of which legends are made. I challenge you to listen to the first cut. I doubt you'll be able to leave without wanting to take her home!

          i reviewed this earlier, and i dont want someone to miss out or not read it but BUY THIS ASAP. Cost should NOT be a issue. This is one of the most original hardcore bands out Baltimore in the 90's and does not dissappoint. Every track is incredible and different from the last. Be sure to check out former members current bands, Unyoung Heroes, Hell to Pay, and Charm City Saints. You wont be disappointed..........
