- This is a fantastic historical document and I, for one, am very glad it exists. Enjoy what is possibly the only video footage of Cait singing I'm a man you don't meet everyday when she was still a member of The Pogues.
The crowd are chanting Jock Stein in tribute to the hugely popular and respected Celtic & Scotland manager, the first British manager to win the European Cup. In a testament to his coaching skills he achieved this with players who all came from within a 30 mile radius of Glasgow.
On 10th September 1985, Scotland played Wales at Ninian Park, Cardiff, in a 1986 World Cup qualification match. Wales had been leading 1-0 by a Mark Hughes goal, before Scotland were awarded a penalty with 9 minutes left. Davie Cooper scored to make the score 1-1; the resulting draw secured a qualification play-off against Australia.
Jock Stein had been in poor health and under intense pressure. He suffered a fatal pulmonary edema (fluid build-up in the lungs) at the end of the game. Dedicated to his players, as always, he had stopped taking prescribed medication for heart disease so his match preparations would not be disrupted by the side effects.
Jock died shortly afterwards in the stadium's medical room; he was 62 years old.
Oh my name is Jock Stewart
I'm a canny gun man
And a roving young fellow I've been
So be easy and free
when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day
I have acres of land
I have men at command
I have always a shilling to spare
So be easy and free
when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day
So come fill up your glasses
of brandy and wine
Whatever it costs I will pay
So be easy and free
when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day
Well I took out my dog
and him I did shoot
All down in the county Kildare
So be easy and free
when you're drinking with me
I'm a man you don't meet every day
These are the lyrics as they appear on the Rum, Sodomy, & The Lash insert.
Are you sure it's Cait singing? She doesn't look like Cait and the voice sounds a bit different as well? Who is playing bass?
Thats 100% Cait. I have footage of the whole gig. She plays bass on every song except this one as she couldn't sing and play at that time.
@@moogbass9914 Thanks for the reply. Good to know! It's a beautiful performance.
You can tell it’s Cait from the haircut and nasally voice
