THE WATERBOYS: ROOM TO ROAM (EMI) **
BASED around Celtic folk reels, 1990’s Room To Roam mixed blues, rock’n’roll, psychedelia, African percussion and even some glam. Mike Scott’s song writing continued in a similar vein to previous set Fisherman’s Blues, but 18 years after the event this translates as mediocre, with an overcooked sense of the Irish ‘knees-up’.
