Great Lost Band Members # 5 Cait O'Riordan


Bass player in the early Pogues and also singer of one of their most distinctive songs, I'm a Man You Don't Meet Every Day, on their second album Rum, Sodomy & The Lash, which somehow doesn't get quite the esteem it deserves, because it's one of the finest records of the eighties. Oh and it's her birthday today!



Coincidentally, given the photo above, I went on a college trip to Moscow and Leningrad with Cait's younger sister in the early eighties and she also bit me whilst we were on the dancefloor.
