I have this tune (PGABNB) from a collection of live stuff on CD that's been around for quite a while. Nice to see it listed on Tom's web site under his videos. However there's a wonderful song he did in the eighties, around the Paradise Alley period. It's called Scarecrow, and has a strong Aaron Copland feel in the piano. It's a perfect, short song, that very few people know about.

@sclogse1 Could you upload it? I never heard that one.

This is one awesome performance. And it has, for some reason I'll never understand, propelled my cover of "I hope I don't fall in love with you" to my top song. How did this song ever get 85K views while your others are so small?

Tom Waits posted it on his Facebook page. I was confused about the sudden interest in the video as well for about a day and a half, and then I realized that it was on Tom Waits Facebook page. It's still at the top of it. I feel humbled by it. It's his song, you know. I just uploaded it because it wasn't on Youtube yet, and I knew most people hadn't heard it. Most of the things I upload weren't on Youtube before I posted them. I make sure of it before I post them.

I have some other Tom Waits performances uploaded on my channel. Well, three other ones. They are from a live performance at Lee Furr Studios in Tuscon. He tells stories in two of them and sings afterwords, and in one he reads a Red Sovine poem
