Soulful and soused, usually in equal parts, The Pogues' music combined the youthful spirit of punk with ancient Celtic melodies to create a sublime racket that's been described as the Sex Pistols setting fire to The Chieftains. Rhino Records raises a pint in one hand and a fistful of Pogues in the other with remastered and expanded versions of the band's first five studio albums -- Red Roses For Me, Rum, Sodomy & The Lash (produced by Elvis Costello), If I Should Fall From Grace With God (produced by Steve Lillywhite), Peace & Love (produced by Steve Lillywhite), and Hell's Ditch (produced by Joe Strummer). Each reissued album will be available September 19.
