 Journal of Folklore Research - Book Notes
Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash: Piracy, Sexuality, and Masculine Identity.
By examining records of sodomy trials, Turley illustrates the way in which both the crime of sodomy and that of piracy "join the actor with the act"(51), forging one of the book's more explicit links between the two subjects.
Despite the frequent disclaimer that not all pirates were sodomites, Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash effectively shows how the pirate not only threatened mariners on the high seas, but continues to threaten those readers invested in normative models of economic and sexual behavior.

 The Pogues - Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash Review - sputnikmusic   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
While that may seem like a valid argument, the fact is that MacGowan is inseparable from his band, just as his band are inseparable from Ireland (which is ironic, as he was in fact born in England).
Rum, Sodomy and The Lash is widely regarded as being the band’s best work, with If I Should Fall From Grace With God being the only other album by the band that even comes close.
With Elvis Costello on production duties for Rum, Sodomy and The Lash, it was inevitable that there were going to be punk influences running as a central theme to the music found here.

 Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash : Book reviews : Journal for Maritime Research
Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash has nothing to say about rum or the lash and the sodomy seems to exist only in the author’s mind.
His aim seems to be to suggest by innuendo that the world of the pirate was not just homosocial but also homoerotic, but he fails to convince.
Turley is honest enough to say that “the evidence for piratical sodomy is so sparse as to be almost non-existent” (p.2), but lack of evidence does not prevent him from seeing things in the pirate mind that are not apparent to other observers.

was to capture them in their dilapidated glory before some more professional producer f--ked them up," Elvis Costello wrote of his role behind the controls for The Pogues' second album, Rum Sodomy and The Lash.
One spin of the album proves that Costello accomplished his mission; this album captures all the sweat, fire, and angry joy that was lost in the thin, disembodied recording of the band's debut, and The Pogues sound stronger and tighter without losing a bit of their edge in the process.

How did the pirate's world, marked as it was by sexual and economic transgression, come to capture our collective imagination?
In Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash, Hans Turley delves deep into the archives to examine the homoerotic and other culturally transgressive aspects of the pirate's world and our prurient fascination with it.
Turley fastens his eye on historical documents, trial records, and the confessions of pirates, as well as literary works such as Robinson Crusoe, to track the birth and development of the pirate image and to show its implications for changing notions of self, masculinity, and sexuality in the modern era.
