Greenland Whale Fisheries by The Pogues

Biografía del artista The Pogues

De Origen Netamente Irlandés Y Representado Por La Impagable Imagen De Shane MacGowan Su Cantante Y Lider The Pogues Conjugan Aires Populares Voluntad Épica Y Reflexiones De Caracter Social Con Una Grosería Altisonante Que A Fuerza De Altercados Acabó Por Identificarles. Desde Una Plataforma Folk Pero Con Planteamientos Punk El Septeto The Pogues Encabeza Una Corriente Que Hace Música De Tradición Gaélica Con Intensidad Y Arrojo Rastreando Sentimientos Añejos Embebidos En Temperamentales Dosis De Romanticismo Y Evocación Historica. Cinco Lp. En Publicados Red Roses For Me 1984 Rum Sodomy & The Lash 1985 If I Should Fall From Grace Wirh God 1988 Peace & Love 1989 Hell's Ditch 1990 .

Frogtoon Música - Información de la canción: Greenland Whale Fisheries

"Greenland Whale Fisheries" Is A Traditional Sea Shanty. In Most Of The Versions Collected From Oral Sources The Song Opens Up Giving A Date For The Events That It Describes Usually Between 1823 And 1853 . However The Song Is Actually Older Than This And A Form Of It Was Published As A Ballad Before 1725. The Song Tells Of A Whaling Expedition That Leaves For Greenland. The Lookout Spots A "whalefish" And Harpoon Boats Are Launched. However The Whale Strikes The Boat With Its Tail Capsizing It And Several Men Are Killed. The Captain Grieves Over Losing His Prey But Especially For Having Lost His Men. He Then Orders The Ship To Sail For Home Calling Greenland A "dreadful Place." Like Most Traditional Songs "Greenland Whale Fisheries" Exists In Different Versions. Some Change Details Such As The Date Of The Expedition And Others Add Or Remove Verses. Perhaps Due To The Wide Influence Of Moby-Dick Some Modern Versions Including The One Recorded By The Pogues For Their Album Red Roses For Me Flip The Captain's Expression Of Grief To Make Him Regret Losing His Catch Even More Than Losing His Crew. In The Version Popularized By The Weavers And Peter Paul And Mary A Shanty Recorded By Alan Lomax From A Barbadian Fisherman Is Appended Which Begins "When The Whale Gets Strike And The Line Run Down And The Whale Makes A Flunder With Her Tail..." A Stanza Was Also Sung "un-Drunkenly" By Bender The Robot In The Futurama Episode "The Bird-Bot Of Ice-Catraz" As Bender Grieved That His Best Friend Fry No Longer Respected Him.
