Tom Waits/Holland 1985

This is a complete recording of a live performance in the Netherlands on November 7th, from the Euro tour after the release of “Raining Dogs” in 1985, recorded with a good A-rank audience recording for the time. It is known as a great live recording that conveys the good atmosphere of the venue, and it is a valuable recording because there are almost no full live recordings from this period. In particular, the songs from “Raining Dogs” are even more bluesy and jazzy than the album, and other past songs are arranged quite differently, especially “Downtown Train” and “Tom Traubert’s Blues,” whose covers of Rod Stewart were big hits. The whole album has a truly club-like, homey feel, and is a masterpiece with plenty to listen to. DISC 1 : 01. Underground/02. Walking Spanish/03. Jockey Full Of Bourbon/04. Big Black Mariah/05.
