Waterboys - The Waterboys Vinyl Record (2002 Digital Remaster 180g Vinyl)
The Waterboys' self-titled debut is the album that introduced Mike Scott's grand, romantic vision to the world — a record that fuses post-punk intensity, literary ambition, and Celtic soul into what Scott himself called "the big music." Recorded across several studio sessions between December 1981 and November 1982, it captures a young songwriter reaching for something epic and getting there.
"A Girl Called Johnny" — a tribute to Patti Smith — crackles with restless energy and jangling guitars. "December" opens the album with cinematic sweep, "The Three Day Man" builds with hypnotic repetition, and "Savage Earth Heart" closes with primal, incantatory power. This 2002 digitally remastered edition on 180-gram vinyl delivers the full dynamic range of Scott's ambitious arrangements with warmth and clarity. The starting point for one of the most singular journeys in rock.

Orders typically ship within two business days. Media Mail might be budget-friendly, but it travels at a glacial pace and gets little love from the postal service. For faster, smoother delivery, choose USPS Priority or UPS/USPS Ground.
Returns
Unopened returns accepted within 30 days — you cover shipping.
If your record arrives damaged or folded (thanks, postal service), reach out ASAP so we can fix it.
After 30 days, it’s yours to keep forever.
Avoid extreme heat or sunlight. Definitely don’t let it mingle with any Justin Bieber records. Treat it like your grandma — gentle, respectful, and quiet during Murder, She Wrote.
