{"product_id":"dlcd036","title":"Sharon Shannon - Saints \u0026 Scoundrels (CD)","description":"Recorded between Summer 2008 and Summer 2009,  \u003cem\u003eSaints and Scoundrels\u003c\/em\u003e is the new studio album from  Sharon Shannon, Ireland’s multi-platinum selling and award winning accordion player. \u003cem\u003eSaints and Scoundrels\u003c\/em\u003e includes several newly penned tracks by the accordion maestro herself and boasts a hoard of special guests including  Shane MacGowan,  Iimelda May,  Jerry Fish,  Carol Keogh (Automata),  Justin Adams (Robert Plant Band) and introducing the mighty  Cartoon Thieves. One of her instrumentals, “ Cape Clear”, will be featured in the new Neil Jordan movie, \u003cem\u003eOndine\u003c\/em\u003e, in which Sharon stars as herself alongside Colin Farrell. (This will be premiered at the Toronto Film Festival in September 2009)\u003cp style=\"text-align:start;white-space:pre-wrap;\" class=\"\"\u003ePerhaps the most musically important track is “ Saints and Angels” written by chief Waterboy  Mike Scott. This track was written for their\u003cem\u003e Fisherman’s Blues\u003c\/em\u003e album (but was never included on the album). The new recording features the first ever reunion of that classic 1989 line-up that includes Mike,  Steve Wwickham,  Anthony Thistlethwaite, and Sharon. The instrumentation is largely made up from Sharon’s touring band, which includes drums, bass, Hammond organ, electric guitars, and sax, which provides a muscular rhythm to Sharon’s accordion, fiddle and whistle playing. Once again the variety and talent of the guests who contribute on Sharon’s \u003cem\u003eSaints and Scoundrels\u003c\/em\u003e new release serves to highlight her musical versatility, wide appeal, and huge respect from within the musical community.1.         \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eMama Lou (with The Cartoon Thieves)\u003c\/span\u003e2.         \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eHowya Horse?\u003c\/span\u003e3.         \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eGo Tell the Devil (with Imelda May)\u003c\/span\u003e4.         \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eThe Wild West Wagon Train\u003c\/span\u003e5.         \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eSaints and Angels (with The Waterboys)\u003c\/span\u003e6.         \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eWhitewash Station Blues (with The Cartoon Thieves)\u003c\/span\u003e7.         \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eHillbilly Lilly and Buffalo Benji (with The Waterboys)\u003c\/span\u003e8.         \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eLet's Drink for Once Dead (with Jerry Fish)\u003c\/span\u003e9.         \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eShifting Summer Sands (with Carol Keogh)\u003c\/span\u003e10.   \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eCape Clear\u003c\/span\u003e11.   \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eLady Luck\u003c\/span\u003e12.   \u003cspan style=\"color:black\"\u003eRake at the Gates of Hell (with Shane MacGowan) and The Scoundrel's Halo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56872075395459,"sku":"DLCD036","price":13.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0901\/1186\/9315\/files\/DLCD036_-_Sharon_Shannon_-_Saints_26_Scoundrels.webp?v=1763418887","url":"https:\/\/celticnote.myshopify.com\/products\/dlcd036","provider":"Celtic Note","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
