Sounding like an old Alan Lomax field recording of sharecroppers or a chain Gun Street Girl, or one of the hillbilly folk rave-ups Gun Street Girl Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Musicre-released inTom Waits barks out a folktale about a man on the lam after murdering his lover. He accompanies himself on a clanging banjo, Greg Cohen plays upright bass, and percussionist Michael Blair bangs on some iron bars, sounding like old-time railroad workers banging spikes. This being Waits specifically post Gun Street Girl, when he started to free himself from restrictive Gun Street Girl patternsthe lyrics are anything but straightforward; they pass by in a surreal haze Gun Street Girl evocative proper names, word combinations, and highly impressionistic images. From 's Rain Dogs which is considered the second in a trilogy of records that began with Swordfishtrombones in and finished with Frank's Wild Years in"Gun Street Girl" continues Waits' move away from the more traditional leanings of his s records. Those albums were steeped in rootsy blues, jazz, folk, and Tin Pan Alley pop. But Waits had seemed to paint himself into a corner with a persona and style that was edging toward self-parody. He almost completely reinvented himself in the s with strides toward a much wider range Gun Street Girl more adventurous musical styles, including Captain Beefheart-inspired deconstructed blues and Weimar era cabaret songwriting. It Gun Street Girl really unlike anything the songwriter had recorded prior to Swordfishtrombones. And while his lyrics were always one of his strong points, Waits abandoned many of the nostalgic, hipster, boozy poet themes that he had done so well but had started to become tired. Instead, he seemed Gun Street Girl choose to follow a more stream-of-consciousness approach that got more at the heart of Americana, rather than merely evoking scenes from noir films. His songs seemed more present and vital, though still timeless. While he embraced new elements, Waits was also wise to retain the aspects of his songwriting as well as his personality that set him apart; instead of tearing Gun Street Girl his past completely, he grew Gun Street Girl it.

One, two, three Falling James in the Gun Street Girl mud Stick around to tell us all a tale Well, he fell in love with a Gun Street girl And now he's dancing in the Birmingham jail Dancing in the Birmingham jail He took a hundred dollars off a slaughterhouse Joe Brought a brand new Michigan twenty-gauge He got all liquored up on that road house corn Blew a hole in the hood of a yellow Corvette A hole Gun Street Girl the hood of a yellow Corvette He bought a second-hand Nova from a Cuban Chinese And dyed his hair in the bathroom of a Texaco With a pawnshop radio, quarter past four He left for Waukegan at the slamming of the door Left for Waukegan at the slamming of the door I said John, John, he's long gone Gone to Indiana, ain't never coming home I said John, John, he's long Gun Street Girl Gone to Indiana, ain't never coming home He's sitting in a sycamore in St. John's wood Soaking day-old bread in kerosene Well, he was blue as a robin's egg and brown as a hog He's staying out of circulation till the dogs get tired Out of circulation till the dogs get tired Shadow fixed the toilet with an old trombone He never get up in the morning on a Saturday Sitting by the Erie with a bull-whipped dog Telling everyone he saw, "they went that-a-way, boys" Telling everyone he saw, "they went that-a-way" Now the rain's like gravel on an old tin roof And Gun Street Girl Burlington Northern pulling out of the world Now a head full of bourbon and a dream in the straw And a Gun Street girl was the cause of it all A Gun Street girl was the cause of it all Well, he's riding in the shadow by the St. Joe ridge Hearing the click-clack tapping of a blind man's cane He was pulling into Gun Street Girl on a New Year's Eve One eye on a pistol and the other on the door One eye on a pistol and the other on the door Miss Charlotte took her satchel down to King Fish Row Smuggled in a brand new pair of alligator shoes With her fireman's raincoat and her long yellow hair Well, they tied her to a tree with a skinny millionaire Tied her to a tree with a skinny millionaire I said John, John, he's long gone Gone to Indiana, ain't never coming home I said John, John, he's long gone Gone to Indiana, ain't never coming home Banging on the table with an old tin cup Sing I'll never kiss a Gun Street girl again Never kiss a Gun Gun Street Girl girl again I'll never kiss a Gun Street girl again I said John, John, he's long gone Gone to Indiana, ain't never coming home I said John, John, he's long gone Gone to Indiana, ain't never coming home Edit Lyrics. Gun Street Girl song meanings. Add your thoughts 7 Comments. My Interpretation First stanza: "I'm going to tell you a story about a man who fell in love with a girl from the wrong side of the tracks. Now he's in jail. Fifth stanza: "Hiding in the woods Gun Street Girl perhaps actually hiding in a tree in the woods eating food that isn't the best and drowning it in strong booze. He's hiding until they stop looking. There was an error. I found some Tom Waits quotes on Gun Street Girl net about this song: "Gun Street Girl Gun Street Girl about a guy who's Gun Street Girl trouble with the law and Gun Street Girl traces all of these events back to this girl he met on Gun Street Gun Street Girl there on Center Market right in Little Italy there. Where is the end of this tale? There's: "Telling everyone they saw the went thataway". There's this girl tied to a tree Gun Street Girl a skinny millionaire and a guy coming into Baker with a pistol and Gun Street Girl So I just tried to throw it all in there and make it like Gun Street Girl It's like when you wake up in the middle of the Gun Street Girl and you try to remember Gun Street Girl that you don't, you remember just pieces of things?

    A.J. Croce Croce Plays Croce Thursday, February 6, 2020; 7:30 pm BIO Listen to A.J. Croce’s albums and it’s clear that he holds an abiding love for all kinds of music – Blues, Soul, Pop, Jazz, and Rock n’ Roll. It is readily apparent too that people love Croce’s diverse approach to music. His nine albums have all charted, and done so on an impressive array of charts: Top 40, Blues, Americana, Jazz, Independent, College, and Radio 1, to name a few. The Nashville-based singer/ songwriter also has landed 18 singles on variety of Top 20 charts. A virtuoso piano player, Croce toured with B.B. King and Ray Charles before reaching the age of 21, and, over his career, he has performed with a wide range of musicians, Photo: Joshua Black Wilkins from Willie Nelson to the Neville Brothers; Bela Fleck to Ry Cooder. A.J. has also co-written songs with such formidable A.J. Croce performs Croce Plays Croce, a special night of tunesmiths as Leon Russell, Dan Penn, Robert Earl Keen music featuring a complete set of classics by his late and multi-Grammy winner Gary Nicholson. father Jim Croce, some of his own tunes, and songs that influenced both him and his father. This special event The late, great New Orleans piano man, and Croce hero, features such timeless songs as “Operator,” “You Don’t Allen Toussaint might have described A.J. most succinctly Mess Around with Jim,” “Time in a Bottle,” (a song written for when he proclaimed: “In such a crowded music universe A.J.), “Rapid Roy," (The Stock Car Boy), and “Lovers Cross," it is a pleasure to witness triple uniqueness: pianist, to name a few.

Først av alt vil jeg takke min veileder, Stan Hawkins, for gode innspill og råd. Jeg vil også takke ham for å svare på alle mine dumme (og mindre dumme) spørsmål til alle døgnets tider. Spesielt i den siste hektiske perioden har han vist stor overbærenhet med meg, og jeg har mottatt hurtige svar selv sene fredagskvelder! Jeg skulle selvfølgelig ha takket Tom Waits personlig, men jeg satser på at han leser dette på sin ranch i «Nowhere, California». Han har levert et materiale som det har vært utrolig morsomt og givende å arbeide med. Videre vil jeg takke samboeren min og mine to stadig større barn. De har latt meg sitte nede i kjellerkontoret mitt helg etter helg, og all arbeidsroen jeg har hatt kan jeg takke dem for. Jeg lover dyrt og hellig å gjengjelde tjenesten. Min mor viste meg for noen år siden at det faktisk var mulig å fullføre en masteroppgave, selv ved siden av en krevende fulltidsjobb og et hektisk familieliv. Det har gitt meg troen på prosjektet, selv om det til tider var slitsomt. Til sist vil jeg takke min far, som gikk bort knappe fire måneder før denne oppgaven ble levert. Han var alltid opptatt av at mine brødre og jeg skulle ha stor frihet til å forfølge våre interesser, og han skal ha mye av æren for at han til slutt endte opp med tre sønner som alle valgte musikk som sin studieretning.

  • Los Angeles Times “Back from the Brink” [Steve Hochman] (1999)
    Back From the Brink : With 'Spider,' Mark Linkous of Sparklehorse returns from a life- threatening episode. Pop Music March 21, 1999|STEVE HOCHMAN | Steve Hochman writes regularly for Calendar Mark Linkous would never write a song with a subject as trite as getting back on his own two feet. That particular struggle is all too real for him. The release of "Good Morning Spider," the second album he's made under the band name Sparklehorse, and a tour that brings him to the Troubadour on Friday are just the latest steps in rebuilding his life and career after a nightmare. Two years ago, the Virginia-based musician was basking in the acclaim for "vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot," the first Sparklehorse album. It was being hailed in particular in Britain, where the press fell for the haunting mix of low-fi rural rock, dream-time pop and inward-looking imagery. Among his fans: the band Radiohead, which offered him the opening slot on most of its European shows in 1996 and 1997. In January 1997, though, everything came crashing down in a London hotel bathroom. "I had a big bottle of Valium from Mexico and had been on antidepressants for a long time," says Linkous, 34, with flat detachment--as if he doesn't remember the incident but has heard others describe it. "And I guess I'd been taking the Valium so much that I passed out. My legs were underneath me all night and half a day. When the paramedics came and straightened my legs out, it sent all the toxins to my heart and gave me a heart attack.

Juni 2013, 22.00 - 24.00 Uhr (Zweitsendung) Der amerikanische Jazzbassist Greg Cohen hat mit seinen sechzig Jahren keine grossartige Diskographie mit Aufnahmen unter eigenem Namen anzubieten. Natürlich hat er auch Platten unter eigener Regie produziert. Was aber selbst bei einem hastigen Blick in die lange Diskographie von Greg Cohen sofort auffällt, ist seine enorme Vielseitigkeit. Cohen spielte seit den späten siebziger Jahren in den Bands des Sängers Tom Waits, und dann ab 1984, nach seinem Umzug von Los Angeles nach New York, in so unterschiedlichen Formationen wie John Zorns Masada oder Woody Allens New Orleans Jazz Band. Die Downtown-Szene vertraut ebenso auf sein solides Fundament wie Popmusiker von Elvis Costello über Lou Reed bis zu Keith Richards und Laurie Anderson.

  • Swordfishtrombones Revisited
    Swordfishtrombones Revisited Start time: 8pm Approximate running time one hour 30 minutes, no interval Please note all timings are approximate and subject to change David Sheppard talks to David Coulter about discovering a spirit of adventure through Swordfishtrombones. At the dawn of the 1980s, Tom Waits was in danger of sliding into terminal self-parody. While his songs were covered by everyone form The Eagles to Bruce Springsteen, Waits, who had just turned 30, seemed stuck in an artistic rut, his albums delivering a cocktail of retro styles: afterhours burlesques, Beat poet reveries, jazzy stomps and string-laden ballads, all of them rendered in the grizzled cartoon baritone of a heavy-smoking soak at least twice his age. Despite 1980’s Heart Attack & Vine, the sixth and last of his albums for Elektra/Asylum, winning critical plaudits, Waits was growing jaded, holed up in West Hollywood’s sybaritic Tropicana Hotel, still peopling his songs with lonely, hard-boiled characters apparently on loan from desolate Edward Hopper paintings or the novels of Dashiell Hammett. While elsewhere punk’s youthful new broom was gleefully sweeping away the old, Waits remained a goateed, trilby-hatted anachronism, a wilful throwback to a sentimentalised, pre-rock’n’roll America. ‘I used to think I was making movies for the ears… I was overly maudlin and romantic’, he later admitted. Happily, artistic deliverance would soon arrive courtesy of another kind of ‘movie for the ears’ – namely a commission from Francis Ford Coppola to write a ‘lounge operetta’ score for the director’s ambitious cine-musical, One From the Heart.

BURROUGHS NOVEMBER 20 - DECEMBER 1, 1993 The Black Rider, a haunting , cabaret-infused , operatic melodrama created by director Robert Wilson , musician Tom Waits , and author William S. Burroughs , each a major figure in his field, has its American premiere as part of the Brooklyn Academy of Music's (BAM) 11th NEXT WA VE Festival, sponsored by Philip Morris Companies Inc . The production runs from November 20 through December 1 at the BAM Opera House which is located at 30 Lafayette Avenue , Brookl yn, N .Y. The Black Rider's plot is adapted from a collection of folk tales which inspired Carl Maria von Weber's 1821 opera Der Frieschutz . It is the story of a young marksman , Wilhelm, who falls prey to the devil in attempting to win the hand of his beloved Kathchen . David Reiff, in his review of the work's premiere in Hamburg called it "a grand act of cultural appropriation ." In the hands of Wilson, Waits and Burroughs , each in top form , it becomes a cabaret/psychodrama with a decidedly contemporary slant. Unlike Weber 's opera, in this version the devil -­ namely "The Black Rider" -- remains triumphant. The Black Rider premiered to enthusiastic crowds at the Thalia Theater Hamburg in March 1990, and has gone on to acclaimed performances in Paris , Vienna , Barcelona , and Sao Paulo . The Black Rider score , as interpreted by Tom Waits, was released in early November on Island Records .
