 The one you were looking for if you're a fan of the early stuff December 10, 2009

I think the very first LP I bought of Mr Waits was Nighthawks at the Diner. Ever since that "quasi" live offering I have been looking for another example of his early stuff in a live environment. This is it. I would say it's probably not as engaging as Nighthawks but quite possibly a better example of his live work at that time. The quality is good as the mix only needs 4 channels plus voice so not much to go wrong. The only criticism I would levy at this disc is that it doesn't give the impression of being recorded in order as there is no feeling of a the concert building to any sort of crescendo.
That said the 16 tracks are well chosen and "developed", to a greater or lesser degree, from the original recorded versions. There are no turkeys and the disc is a constant companion in the car and on my ipod.

Don't be fooled by the front cover, which has what is probably the best ever photograph of Tom Waits clutching a glowing viscera of fairy lights. The music on this album is (according to the minimal notes) from Waits 1977 world tour. But if you like Waits earlier beatnik incarnation (Nighthawks, Small Change), then this album offers an insight into a transitional period, in which earlier songs (ie from Closing Time, Heart of Saturday Night) get a makeover in musical style that prefigures the stuff on Blue Valentines. Waits plays piano throughout, assisted by Frank Vicari (tenor sax), Chip White on drums and a certain Dr Fitzgerald Jenkins on double bass; almost certainly a pseudonym for Jim Hughart, whose unmistakable style contributes to killer versions of "Diamonds on my windshield" and "The one that got away". Overall, the recording quality is good (probably recorded off the mixing desk), and Waits makes some amusing attempts to initiate dialogue with what sounds like a sparse audience (yeah, it's that early...)
