  1. Now listening to the last album on today's listening schedule for #TomWaitsAWeek - the somewhat surprisingly* amazing Real Gone - and, since I've literally only heard Sheboygan referenced before in Home Alone, I'm now going to consider this song an Xmas tune.

    *Wait, why am I surprised? Waits never fails!

  2. Writing our last #TomWaitsAWeek spotlight for the @1001otheralbums.com blog and somehow went down a side trail that involves Sting. I need more coffee.

  3. I've started in on tomorrow's listening schedule for #TomWaitsAWeek, currently listening to (the fabulous!) Mule Variations. Just got to "Chocolate Jesus" and OMG I wish there could've been a Temple of the Dog/Tom Waits split 7" where they covered each other's Jesus songs (TotD's of course being "Wooden Jesus").

    (Once again, why am I like this?)

  4. #TomWaitsAWeek Log entry 8

    #Swordfishtrombones is a cornerstone in Tom Waits' career. It introduces all sorts of new instruments I couldn't even name.

    Same problem with my favourite track on the album. I couldn't even name one.

    Swordfishtrombones is utterly brilliant!

    There's a world going on underground, you know?

  5. #TomWaitsAWeek Log entry 7

    Sometimes things are so obvious that I don't even recognize them. For example that Heartattack and Vine is the first Tom Waits album where an electric guitar is heavily used. (@buffyleigh brought this to my attention)

    I like dry and dirty garage blues rock, which is what you get on this album a lot. But you also get "The Heart of Saturday Night" like ballads (On a Nickel, Ruby's Arms). Heck, you even get a radio friendly rock song (Jersey Girl).

    I like the raw and dirty ones, so hit me with Downtown and Heartattack and Vine any time!

  6. Underworld keeps posting random tracks on their Bandcamp...new album coming?

  7. Now listening to "Blue Sunshine" (1983) for the first time, the one album from The Glove, i.e., Robert Smith and Steven Severin of Siouxsie and the Banshees. Smith wasn't the singer because he was contractually not allowed to sing on more than a couple songs outside of The Cure, but the 2006 re-release has demos with him doing vocals too.

  8. A song from this album entered my ears and I had to look up the full album, I'm sure someone here will like it too. Experimental instrumental art rock, some of it makes me think, like, if Philip Glass went rock?

  9. @1001otheralbums.com Ooo, thought I recognized the vocals in this - John Haugm of #Agalloch does guest vocals on track 6. Looks like they did a split a couple years before this #Nest album. Makes sense, fans of one should like the other!

  14. @heathen Ooo, I love these sort of posts! I keep a list throughout the year for potential Albums of the Year, and I already have 33 albums on there (!). But going through it, I just realized there's only a select few I still actually have on repeat:

    #AcidKing - Beyond Vision
    #SigurRos - Átta
    #Blackbraid - Blackbraid II
    #PaulSimon - Seven Psalms

    Honorable mention because it hasn't yet been released (but I've had the singles released so far on repeat):

    #JeremyDutcher - Motewolonuwok
