Room to Roam

Limited 180gm vinyl LP repressing of this 1990 album by Mike Scott and Co. Room to Roam was the fifth album by The Waterboys. It continued the Folk Rock sound of 1988's Fisherman's Blues. The album was recorded at Spiddal House in Galway, where the last recording sessions from the preceding album, Fisherman's Blues, had been recorded. Room to Roam would be the last of The Waterboys' Folk-rock sound until the release of Universal Hall in 2003. Fiddler Steve Wickham, who had been a large inspiration for the change to that sound for Fisherman's Blues, left the band shortly before Room to Roam was released.
