Think of a rock star. Any rock star. Any self-absorbed, promiscuous, egotistical, substance abusing, larger than life rock star. Got one in your head? Think of all the characteristics that make him what he is. Fashion yourself a loose definition of a rock star. Nothing too specific, just a general idea. Keep that definition in your head. Now, think of a man who is influenced by Jack Kerouac and Charles Bukowski, playing folksy, bluesy jazz music with a smooth voice and a piano in seedy bars in Los Angeles. This man rejected the musical trends of his time and dove headfirst into musical styles long forgotten in popular music, like cabaret, vaudeville, primal blues, carnival music, tango and theatrical music. He incorporates strange instruments in his music, like bassoon, waterphone, bagpipes, pump organ, marimba, accordion, Stroh violin, and an early mellotron called a Chamberlin. He sings in a deep, abrasive, gravelly manner, and his songs are about bizarre outcasts in society with a penchant for the grotesque. His over 70 years old, has been married to the same woman for 40 years (and with no infidelity), and generally stays out of the public spotlight. He has performed with the Dalai Lama. He has written music for and about obscure theatrical productions like Robert Wilson’s Alice and Georg Buchner’s Woyzeck, in addition to a collaboration with Wilson and William S. Burroughs called The Black Rider. He never reached a mainstream audience, so his most famous songs are actually cover versions of his songs done by bigger artists. This man is greatly eccentric. Something of a recluse, he rarely makes public appearances, and when he does it’s a big deal. He has a successful acting career in addition to his music career, appearing alongside stars like Heath Ledger, Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley and Denzel Washington. He’s gained the approval and adoration of starlets like Scarlett Johansson. He sells out every show he performs all over the world nearly instantly. His music has been covered by the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Robert Plant. Pitchfork called him a badass and Gawker said he was America’s coolest living man. He was arrested in his younger days for disturbing the peace. Does that fit your definition of a rock star? If you haven’t already guessed, that all talking about Tom Waits – in all scenarios. He’s earned the freedom to whatever he wants, whenever he wants. While Tom Waits has been responsible for some of the finest compositions of the past 40 years, his regular interpretations - particularly when performing live - of songs written by others often remain as enticing and delightful as his delivery of his self-penned numbers. This splendid collection includes 24 such renditions, recorded live in concert at various points in his career thus far. Including songs originally, or most famously, performed by artists and groups as eclectic and diverse as The Doors, James Brown, Peggy Lee, Ewan MacColl, Elvis Presley and many others, this CD will delight Tom Waits enormous fan base as it catalogues the very best of this skilled translator s readings of many great compositions.
