Philip Chevron
Philip Ryan (17 June 1957 – 8 October 2013), professionally known as Philip Chevron, was an Irish singer-songwriter and guitarist, best known as a member of The Pogues. He was regarded as one of the most influential figures in Irish punk music.
==Career==
Chevron grew up in Santry, a suburb of Dublin. Beginning in the late 1970s, he was lead singer and co-founder of the punk rock group The Radiators from Space,〔 receiving some critical acclaim but little widespread popularity or financial success. Following a temporary breakup of the band in 1981, he lived in London for a while, meeting and befriending Shane MacGowan through time spent working together at a record shop. Following the release of the Pogues' 1984 debut album ''Red Roses For Me'', he was invited to join the band on a short-term basis as cover for banjo player Jem Finer's paternity leave. He took over as guitarist following MacGowan's decision to concentrate on singing—thereby becoming a full-time member of the band in time for the recording of its second album, ''Rum, Sodomy and the Lash''.〔
Chevron proved himself as a singer-songwriter, writing the songs "Thousands Are Sailing"〔 and "Lorelei" among others.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Lorelei – The Pogues )〕 He left The Pogues in 1994 following problems with drugs and alcohol. In 2003, he reformed The Radiators (Plan 9) with ex-Pogues bassist Cait O'Riordan. They released the album ''Trouble Pilgrim'' in 2006.
In later years, he became The Pogues' unofficial spokesperson and resident expert on the reclusive MacGowan – frequently visiting online fora and directly answering questions from fans. In 2004, he personally oversaw the remastering and re-release of The Pogues' entire back catalogue on CD. He toured regularly with The Pogues, who reunited after a successful reunion tour in 2001.〔
