Tom Waits-Nighthawks At The Diner
There are two kinds of live albums: placeholders and non-placeholders. This one is in the latter category. Lots of great stories, and some good, smoke-drenched music. It’s a really fun album, and it made it seem OK to call myself up when I was alone (I now call myself up even when I’m NOT alone).
I assume Big Joe had the first spectral sex change, and it landed him/her a role in a Pee Wee Herman movie.
