tom waits' kcrw "snap" sessions, santa monica, 11.10.73

Posted by doubter on Friday, November 25th, 2011

top of the day after thanksgiving, or for those of you anywhere else, the day after a thursday. my thanksgiving was lovely and relaxing. we went to the wife’s new restaurant/hotel, the renaissance marriott in baton rouge. took some pics of the event with my new panasonic lx5, which is a super awesome camera, btw. thanks to my father for purchasing it for me. i had to sell my g12, which is also a great camera, and really sucked being without one.

woke up this morning with “san diego serenade” in my head and thus listened to it approx 20 times this morning. so i figured i would post a waits performance which has never graced this site. very interesting listen, as are most waits shows. the quality is good, not great, but the performances are spectacular.

1. pancho’s lament
2. friday’s blues
3. shiver me timbers
4. depot, depot
5. better off without a wife
6. fumblin with the blues
