@daveinchapelhill Regarding your Small Change comment...I think it's even better today. And it's audio quality is just amazing...a mix straight to two track...
How can I be the first to comment on this? Tom is the best thing that happened to american music in the last thirty five years. He also has the best humor. Thanks, Tom...and I hope those glasses made it to you. Andre

Genius is quite an understatement. He's far beyond the mere definition of genius.

The bassist is Fitz Jenkins. He says so after Small Change.

Not sure but I think the bassist is Jim Hughart. He's played with Ella Fitzgerald so he's a real jazz bassist.

Has anyone read Tom Waits' biography? It's an amazing book. Very in depth.

An absolute gem of a gig - none of the 15 songs fail to deliver.
Thanks so much for posting this footage of a master at work.
