Tom Waits- SMALL CHANGE- CD- 1976/2004- Elektra/Asylum Records- 075596061223- 400 grn
SMALL CHANGE is the fourth studio album by singer and songwriter Tom Waits, released on September 21, 1976 on Asylum Records. It was recorded in July at Wally Heider's Studio 3 in Hollywood. It was successful commercially and outsold his previous albums. This resulted in Waits putting together a touring band - The Nocturnal Emissions, which consisted of Frank Vicari on tenor saxophone, FitzGerald Jenkins on bass guitar and Chip White on drums and vibraphone. The Nocturnal Emissions toured Europe and the United States extensively from October 1976 till May 1977. Backed by a jazz trio, Waits finds the most sympathetic backing of his career to that point and creates his early masterpiece. SMALL CHANGE is the home of Waits’ favorites like "The Piano Has Been Drinking (Not Me),” the moving soldier’s ballad “Tom Traubert’s Blues,” and the manic slide-show of “Step Right Up.” The cover art features Waits sitting in a go-go dancer's dressing room, with a topless go-go dancer standing nearby. It was alleged that the go-go dancer pictured is Cassandra Peterson, best known as the iconic character Elvira, Mistress Of The Dark. Peterson, however, says she's not sure of the authenticity of this claim.
PERSONNEL: Tom Waits - vocals, piano; Harry Bluestone – violin, concertmaster strings; Jim Hughart – bass; Ed Lustgarten – cello, orchestra manager strings; Shelly Manne – drums; Lew Tabackin – tenor saxophone; Jerry Yester – arranger and conductor of string section.
The fourth release in Tom Waits' series of skid row travelogues, SMALL CHANGE proves to be the archetypal album of his '70s work. A jazz trio comprising tenor sax player Lew Tabackin, bassist Jim Hughart, and drummer Shelly Manne, plus an occasional string section, back Waits and his piano on songs steeped in whiskey and atmosphere in which he alternately sings in his broken-beaned drunk's voice (now deeper and overtly influenced by Louis Armstrong) and recites jazzy poetry. It's as if Waits were determined to combine the Humphrey Bogart and Dooley Wilson characters from Casablanca with a dash of On The Road's Dean Moriarty to illuminate a dark world of bars and all-night diners. Of course, he'd been in that world before, but in songs like "The Piano Has Been Drinking" and "Bad Liver And A Broken Heart," Waits gives it its clearest expression. SMALL CHANGE isn't his best album. Like most of the albums Waits made in the '70s, it's uneven, probably because he was putting out one a year and didn't have time to come up with enough first-rate material. But it is the most obvious and characteristic of his albums for Asylum Records. If you like it, you also will like the ones before and after; otherwise, you're not Tom Waits' kind of listener.
