Subject: RE: Tune Req: pogues Battle March Medley From: GUEST,vl Date: 31 Mar 03 - 08:56 PM Whoops, I went off half-cocked. I looked it up at pogues.com and found I was thinking of track nine entitled simply Medley. Don't know the ones off track 12.vl |

Subject: RE: Help: Battle March Medley (from The Pogues) From: GUEST,John Scovill Date: 12 Apr 16 - 07:24 AM I'd like to revive this thread in hopes of finding out if anyone reconizes the tunes in the Pogues "Battle March Medley" track 12 on their CD "If I should Fall from Grace with God". |
Subject: RE: Help: Battle March Medley (from The Pogues) From: GUEST,Lighter Date: 12 Apr 16 - 09:55 AM The whole track is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVv-i5F6kwU I don't recognize any of the tunes. The first could be original; at any rate it doesn't sound typically Irish to me. The two other tunes are jigs, at least in form. |
Subject: RE: Help: Battle March Medley (from The Pogues) From: gillymor Date: 13 Apr 16 - 08:47 AM I posed a similar question on a recent Pogues thread and wound up reading somewhere (perhaps the Session) that the tunes were composed by their cittern player, Terry Woods. |
Subject: RE: Help: Battle March Medley (from The Pogues) From: Helen Date: 13 Apr 16 - 04:00 PM Hi all, Here is the Pogues thread - trying to identify the snippets otunes they put into their songs As gillymor said, it appears that the tunes were written by Terry Woods, but also the small intro is reminiscent of March of the Battle of Laois.
