Tom Waits: Glitter and Doom Live 2009


Tom Waits will release a glittering distillation of his 2008 Glitter and Doom tour on Anti Records this November 23rd. Glitter and Doom Live is comprised of performances from many shows on the tour, and a second disc, called Tom Tales gathers many of the strange, twisted, and nearly believable, stories that Mr Waits shares with the adoring fans lucky enough to see him live. I was surprised to learn that his label, Anti, has pushed Ol' Tom into the present by getting an official website up and running. If you visit the site you can download a preview of the album (the first eight tracks are yours, free of charge) by giving up your email address. Here's the track list and, below that, a sample of the second disc, Tom's Tales.
