bigshoulders Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I'm a happy man. Only thing that would make me happier is a legitimate Blu-ray (or DVD) of "Big Time". Hurr, hurr. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RainDogToo Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 I'm a happy man. Only thing that would make me happier is a legitimate Blu-ray (or DVD) of "Big Time". Hurr, hurr. I pre-ordered the oil stain shirt, booklet bundle! And about the “Big Time” DVD, I've been trying to get the Criterion collection to release it for years, now. I've done so by constantly sending suggestion emails. They responded back to me once by saying "Yeah, that would be very cool..." You can also try sending them too- I would think the more requests the better! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wild Frank Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Happy days. Just ordered the CD/Book/T-Shirt set. All looks very nice. Roll on the 24th November. I'm especially looking forward to this as I couldn't make the UK shows last year (Bloody wife going into labour!. She wouldn't even let me name my newly born son Tom in respect!!). The Orphans Vinyl set also looks very tempting. Having five or six bonus songs much just sway it. Any word on a new album? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RainDogToo Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 Any word on a new album?The only news I heard as of March 2009 (noted in this thread's first post) was that Tom and Kathleen were writing new songs with plans to record this summer. I guess there will be more news in the new year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RainDogToo Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 Free Glitter and Doom Live Album Preview http://www.tomwaits.com/news/article/60/Topspin_Widget_Test/ As a special thank you for visiting tomwaits.com, we’d like to offer a sneak preview of the new Tom Waits album, Glitter and Doom Live, arriving November 24th. Check out the first 8 songs for free, including a roaring version of “Get Behind the Mule” and a slinky reinvention of “Singapore,” and if you love the album as much as we think you will, you can pre-order it. CD and LP include as a bonus the 35 minute disc/track “Tom Tales,” compiling between‐song banter from throughout the tour into a continuous monologue, and chronicling for the first time one of fans’ favorite parts of a Waits’ performance. BTW: Tom's new website http://www.tomwaits.com/ is very cool... I recommend visiting it- you will not be disappointed!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigshoulders Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 $124.99 for the vinyl Orphans Box set seems a bit steep to me. I know he has kids to put through college and all, but I'm trying to buy a house. Those Glitter and Doom bundles are very tempting, however. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We seem to share a common with our Waits-related names. I assume 'Rain Dogs' is the definitve album for you?. I would certainly agree thats its the best of the lot. One album I really love is 'Real Gone' which doesn't seem to get much love at all. What a great album that it. I'm also very fond of 'Franks Wild Years' (unsurprisingly) which has some corkers on it.

That’s just the one that I first heard when I started to really get into Waits… I guess that’s when you can say it all clicked for me, though. Plus, I just love the whole concept behind the name. I think it’s almost impossible for me to pick a favorite Tom Waits album. I honestly love every single one of them for what they are! But yeah, ‘Real Gone’ is a magnificent album and you’re right about it being highly underrated! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But yeah, ‘Real Gone’ is a magnificent album and you’re right about it being highly underrated!I think the only Tom Waits album that I can live without is 'Foreign Affairs', which i feel is a bit week and predictabale. However, that one has 'Burma Shave' on it which is one of the all-time classic Tom Waits tracks. Although he is more of a left-field artist I cannot think of anyone else who has been so consistant over such a period of time. Even Dylan and Neil Young have put out a large amount of duff albums. Tom's quality control is second to none. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bigshoulders Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 I used to feel the same way about "Foreign Affairs" but I've come around. "Jack and Neal/ California, Here I Come" is gold. Pure gold. Jack was sittin poker faced with bullets backed with bitchesNeal hunched at the wheel puttin everyone in stiches... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

M. (hristine Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Guess I didn't realize Big Time never saw DVD release. It's only the seminal concert film of the 80s. Well that and Stop Making Sense. Sheesh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

calvino Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 09. Jesus Gonna Be Here (Stu singing Tom Waits song, Bob on keys) Thought this was a bit interesting. The above was played tonight (10.31.09) in Chicago by Bob Dylan and his band. Have heard it yet, though. Below is from another board. He said that Bob said, "now we have a special guest, Tom Waits." Everyone was waiting for Tom to appear. Then Stu walked center stage and did a verse or two of Jesus Gonna Be Here. He said Stu did a great job, and that Bob was leaning across the keys and enjoying it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RainDogToo Posted November 1, 2009 Author Share Posted November 1, 2009 From expecting rain: It was funny because Bob said, "We have a special guest tonight", and introduced "Tom Waits". We were all spazzing out and cheering, then we realized it was Stu and Bob Dylan played a Halloween trick on us. Then after one verse, Bob came up and pushed Stu away and we all a good laugh about it. Imagine though if Tom really would have really come out... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wild Frank Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 The Eels do a great version of 'Jesus Gonna Be Here'. It was on one of their recent live records. I was checking out the new Waits website and Tom must be the most photogenic rock star ever. There are some seriously cool pictures in the photo section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Bloomington, IndianaIndiana UniversityIU Auditorium November 2, 2009 8.San Diego Serenade (1 verse) (song by Tom Waits)(Stu on vocals and acoustic guitar, Charlie on acoustic guitar, Bob did not perform on this song) Dylan's band does another verse from another Waits song. Perhaps they are going through his catalog one verse at a time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wild Frank Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 This looks very interesting. A new stage collaboration between Tom and Robert Wilson. I am a big fan of 'The Black Rider', 'Alice' and 'Blood money' so hopefully this could mean some new songs on the horizon. I'd love to catch one of these performances this time round. I missed the 'Black Rider' performance when it hit the U.K a few years back. http://www.antilabelblog.com/?p=2257 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
