Interesting in Jersey Girl that he went with the "girls on 8th avenue", which was a combo of his own 8th avenue and the change Springsteen made in his version from "whores" to "girls". Guessing he wanted it to be a more universal or less offensive (to some) version. I love a lot of Waits stylings, but just sitting at the piano or with a guitar and a stool will always be one of my favorites. Thanks for posting something I wouldn't have been lucky enough to see otherwise.
Great stuff. Waits accompanied by (I think, his bro-in-law) Greg Cohen, best known for his work with various John Zorn projects, and was a member of the Bill Frisell Band.
awesome version of innocent when you dream

I was there with my friend Tony. The first Tom Waits concert in Italy, I think. It was presented by Francesco Benigni. Extraordinary both.

I wish I could have the bootleg of it... some songs are missing on the Youtube video: $29 must be a great moment
