Album Review
An Appointment With Mr Yeats sees Mike Scott taking the poetry of Irish poet and playwright William Butler Yeats and setting it to music. Produced by Scott himself with the help of Waterboys bassist Marc Arciero, the album is the culmination of a project that Scott had first initiated with a reworking of Yeats’ “The Stolen Child” on the 1988 album Fisherman’s Blues., Rovi
Customer Reviews
Masterpiece
Nees I say more??
A labour of love.
Breathtaking beauty. This is clearly a labour of love for Mike Scott and will hopefully introduce many to Yeats' great work.
Just beautiful
Mike Scott takes the work of Irelands favourite poet & turns them into songs with stunning results.The last track is just sublime & my favourite album track by miles at the moment, but there are about 4 or 5 other standouts, "politics" & "white birds" come to mind.
Very very good, still one of are most underrated groups.
