The Waterboys/London Mick

Post by TeddyB Not Logged In »

The second track on the upcoming Waterboys album “Where the Action Is” entitled “London Mick” is a song by Mike Scott about Our Mick. More affectionate than Mike’s song “Mr. Charisma” about Keith Richards, the word I got from someone who shall go unnamed who got an early listen is that it’s a “proper song.” It also apparently proposes that Mick is working on something worthwhile that we will all want to hear. I think that’s a gentle prod from Mr. Scott!

Interesting. I've seen it described as a "stomper", can't wait to hear it.

I subscribe it and I also think that a collaboration between them would not be a bad thing.

London Mick
Holy fuck! That is the best slice of rock n roll I've heard in years. The Stones and The Clash just had a baby.

Seriously great track I'm fucking loving it and great to hear Mick getting the respect he truly deserves. I'm smiling like a fool and dancing like a dervish.

Nice one.
