Product description

Amazon.com
As tour guide on a trip through the midnight-to-dawn streets of Los Angeles that the beautiful people never see through the smoked-glass windows of their limos, Waits details the lives of hipsters, down-and-outers, and lost causes in latter-day beat poetry and small-jazz-combo arrangements. This live album from 1975 almost has the quality of standup comedy, but the routines are richer and more carefully drawn. Check out the vivid detail, low humor, and hooker-with-a-heart-of-gold emotionalism Waits brings to songs such as "Nighthawk Postcards," "Putnam County," and a memorable reading of trucker poet Red Sovine's "Big Joe and Phantom 309." --Daniel Durchholz

By the way, as one who loved the original vinyl, I have no problem with the CD sound. It's just fine.
The performance is in front of a live audience. My understanding is that Waits set up a very small venue to do the performance. In essence this gives the effect of performing in a small club.
The music is very nice, as is the banter between songs. Sometimes it's difficult to tell what's banter and what's song. That's not a criticism. I found it charming.
I'll acknowledge that Tom Waits isn't for everyone. I have a very difficult time getting my wife to listen to him. She has difficulty getting past the gravelly voice. I compare him to someone like Dylan. He's a singer-songwriter of widely diverse range and style.
If you like Tom Waits, this is a great choice for your collection. If you aren't familiar with Waits, this is also a good choice. His remarkable sense of humor is on full display, as is his style that aligns him closely with people on the streets and hidden in the alleys.
I bought this album because I hear "Better off without a Wife" on the radio, and, as a single guy, I needed an anthem. But it's NOT the best song on the album!!! After I listened to it 5 or 6 times over 3 days, "Eggs and Sausage" stuck in my head for the next four days. During those four days, my world turned into two types of people: Those that Understand, and Those that DO NOT understand. Of course, 90% of my world were in the "DO NOT UNDERSTAND" category. But that' OK, because it was me and Tom against the world. I usually shy away from live albums but this one left me wishing I was there. Buy this album.

auf dieser live aufnahme aus den zeiten seiner noch urigen bluesphase - oder wie immer man das bezeichnen mag - gelingt ihm hier etwas besonderes. er benützt diese betrunkenen, mit verrauchter barathmosphäre geschwängerten songs um witzige texte (zb. emotional weather report) oder ebenso witzige storys davor zu erzählen. das feeling, der groove, geniale kompositionen, 100% tom waits auf höchstem niveau aber ohne den hauch von easy listening!
für mich eine seiner besten, für TW-fans sowieso ein muss!
der sound ist nicht perfekt, aber völlig akzeptabel, drei bis vier sterne dafür. zudem ist die live-athmosphäre ebenso wie die interaktion mit dem publikum perfekt eingefangen. klasse, macht spass!
