"Poguetry in Motion" is an EP by The Pogues and their first single to make the UK Top 40. It peaked at Number 29. It features the songs "London Girl", "Rainy Night in Soho", "The Body of an American" and "Planxty Noel Hill".
The final track "Planxty Noel Hill" refers to Noel Hill from Planxty who, at the time of the release of the band's second album, Rum Sodomy and the Lash, claimed that the Pogues were disrespecting the whole Irish music tradition. This confrontation occurred during the course of a studio debate on RTE Radio hosted by BP Fallon.
These tracks were not originally featured on any Pogues album but are included as bonus tracks on the 2004 re-issue of Rum, Sodomy, and the Lash.
