5 out of 5 stars The Rare Oul' Stuff.......2007-03-30

This album is just fantastic. I have The Snake also which has many of the same songs but this album has some extra gems on it. Everything from "up the republic" pro IRA songs, to the rock n roll style songs too.
If you like The Pogues and never heard of the Popes before do yourself a favor and pickup this CD. It will not leave your player for months.

The Rare 'Oul Stuff--a compilation of B-sides and key album tracks recorded by Shane MacGowan with post-Pogues backing band the Popes and spanning the years 1994 to 1998--is unlikely to enhance the singer's public profile, but only because it doesn't contain any of the songs that temperance-favoring laymen are likely to remember. Thus, there's no sign of the minor hits "My Way," "Haunted," or "That Woman's Got Me Drinking" but, perversely, certain noncharting A-sides are included. The best of these is the cinematically scored "You're the One" (cowritten with Michael Kamen), a duet with Maire Brennan which juxtaposes the Clannad singer's windswept, virginal vocal sensuality with Macgowan's Gainsbourg-esque cragginess--an unlikely artistic match. On the other hand, "Christmas Lullaby" is just dismal. Elsewhere, fans of fornication-flavored vocabulary, rebel songs (the historical "Roddy McCorley" and the more controversial "Paddy Public Enemy Number One," a tribute to deceased Irish Republican Dominic McGlinchey), blazing tin whistles, and banjos can't go wrong--even if the version of "Danny Boy" is a case of too much Shane. --Kevin Maidment

4 out of 5 stars shane macgowen.......2005-09-11

really like the cd but it's difficult to make out all of the lyrics

5 out of 5 stars BUY THIS RECORD!!!.......2005-08-10

Hey guys, if you are looking at this review , it means that you are potentially interested in picking up "Rare Oul' Stuff" by the inimitable Shane MacGowan. Let me save you the debate...BUY IT!!! Shane MacGowan is one of the true geniuses of our time. This album is a perfect jumping on spot for a new fan of Shane's solo and post-Pogues work as it contains tracks from both of his previous solo records and some harder to find stuff. Stand out tunes include "Aisling" and "Paddy Public Enemy No. 1." "You're the One" is a really tender ballad and one of Shane's duets which are always great tunes chock full of heart. "The Song With No Name" is a love tune that should be a wedding standard on par with "Annie's SOng" or "Grow Old With Me". Who doesn't understand when Shane says "...and now I pray for a single kiss from her to be lashed and crucified..." WOW! But lest you think that the spitting, drinking, swaggering MacGowan has gone soft, "Rock and Roll Paddy" should about knock your socks off with a rockin' melody and some pretty risque lyrics. Give this record a spin, I promise it will hang out in your player for a long time. It's still in mine.

5 out of 5 stars Pogue to Pope.......2002-01-17

If you're a fool for the Pogues but have been disappointed with Shane MacGowan's 2 solo albums since HELL'S DITCH, this one might be worth the extra moola. It's basically a 21-track singles collection featuring his best songs off THE SNAKE & CROCK OF GOLD, which isn't a bad idea since both albums have their share of duds.

Hard-core fans will delight in some endearing B-side covers like, "Danny Boy" & Neil Diamond's "Cracklin' Rosie" of all things. It also features "You're the One", his duet with Naire Brennan off the "Circle of Friends". Another incentive to fork over the dough is "Rake at the Gates of Hell" a rarity from STAIGHT TO HELL, Shane's acting debut(if you want to call it that).

So, splurge. You won't miss the money and who knows how long it will be before a Pogues re-union album.
