I've always favored Tom's Brawlers album from the Orphans collection. I recently acquired the Bawlers album on vinyl and it kinda knocked me out. It sounds so fucking good and warm. I think I have a weird torrent version or something because the tracks were in an unfamiliar order. I loved the order they're in on the vinyl I have. So solid and pleasant.


I have the cd of that. Need to listen to it more often.

At night. With a small pour of your favorite adult beverage... :nice:

Can't beat it.

I absolutely love "Bawlers," it's insane the number of amazing songs he had that didn't make it onto his albums. "Never Let Go?" Come on now!

"Ill fall from your grace, but ill never let go of your hand"

Fuck. That line gets me every time. Weepy chills, really.

Down there by the train as well. Almost every line in that song is brilliant.

"Widow's Grove" is my favorite from that

And, yeah, KD, the reissues are sold separately on vinyl. I have Brawlers and Bawlers but not Bastards. Not yet.

Fannin Street, Little Drop of Poison, Shiny Things, and The Fall of Troy are all worth mentioning here, too. Fucking brilliant tracks.

"World Keeps Turning" -- one of those songs, like "Take It With Me," that some days I feel like I just can't handle.

If I had a ticket to fulfill the old "go back in time to attend one concert of your choosing" fantasy, I think I could do worse than this Tom Waits New Year's Eve show from 1988, with an insane setlist featuring 32 songs including covers by the Doors, Little Willie John, Sinatra, Elvis, and The Pogues (or whoever wrote "Dirty Old Town"). Failing that, though, this pretty awesome recording is hitting the spot today:

Spoiler: show

Fever

Clap Hands
Cold Cold Ground

Bad Liver and a Broken Heart (in Lowell)
Johnsburg, Illinois
Jitterbug Boy (Sharing a Curbstone With Chuck E. Weiss, Robert Marchese, Paul Body and the Mug and Artie)
Train Song
Jockey Full of Bourbon
Rain Dogs
Falling Down
Walking Spanish
Red Shoes by the Drugstore
Downtown Train
(Looking For) The Heart of Saturday Night
Telephone Call From Istanbul
Straight to the Top (Rhumba)
Auld Lang Syne
Way Down in the Hole
Hound Dog
Hang on St. Christopher
Shore Leave
Down, Down, Down
Time


Thanks for the TW, KD. :thumbsup:

If you're trying to come up with the best tracks from Orphans, just post the entire tracklist and call it a day.

Off the top of my head, my Orphans top 10 would look something like:

Buzz Fledderjohn
Rains on Me
2:19
Road to Peace
Never Let Go
Shiny Things
Lucinda
Fannin Street
Long Way Home
Little Drop of Poison

No kidding. BAM is the only new Tom Waits album to drop since I became a fan. I've only gotten to experience to sheer joy of anticipation and ultimate release of a new Tom Waits record once. And I'm thankful for that. But man, I want that feeling again.

Wait... 7 years between Bone Machine and Mule Variations (I know The Black Rider but that doesn't count and even if it does that still means a 6 year gap). And 7 years between Real Gone and Bad As Me.

Maybe we get a new soon?! Eh?! EH?!!!!

I bet he just wants to sit around and be old now. No more albums.
