Best covers of Tom Waits?
Inspired by the fact that I just heard Bob Seger''s cover of 'Downtown Train', I'm in the mood for a compilation of Tom Waits covers. Pete Shelley's 'Better Off Without a Wife' is a good one, as is Frente's 'Ruby's Arms' (actually, that whole Step Right Up tribute album's pretty good), but I need so...

Re: Music Documentaries
Still Bill is, indeed, a really good doc. I'd also give a big thumbs up to New York Doll.

Re: Artist of the Week 5/3/2011- R.E.M. 1982-1985
Incidentally, The Baseball Project (of which Buck's a member), released their second album at the start of the new season. Might not be *quite* as good as the first, although 'Chin Music' is a great little singalong, but worth listening to.
I'd embed a vid, but haven't quite worked out how to yet...

Re: Artist of the Week Index
Can I just say thanks for this idea. I've been reading the links here for the best part of an hour, now, from bands I like (Todd Snider, Warren Zevon, Reigning Sound and others) to ones I've never heard of. What a great idea this is!

Re: Artist of the Week - volunteers needed
I'd gladly chip in, but I'm new. Still, if you want someone to write rhapsodic over The Assponys, Slim Cessna's Auto Club or The Wedding Present, I'm your man.

Re: Artist of the Week 5/3/2011- R.E.M. 1982-1985
I couldn't agree more with the sentiments of the original post. I actually saw REM in 83ish, I think it was, and for a while there they were THE band in my life. I was so excited when they got signed to a major, and I rushed to get Green on its release. I listened to it and was horrified. Looking ba...

Re: Bristol Setlist - 6th May 2011
Thanks for the welcomes! Nice gang you've got here! I can't really put it any better than I've already written, in honesty. I was looking forward to the show because I'd heard they were superb live, but I was just amazed at the delivery. I'm thrilled that they're the type of band that changes setlis...

Re: Bristol Setlist - 6th May 2011
Hi, I signed up to this forum just to comment on last night's show in Bristol. Going in to it, I admired DBT rather than loving them, but that changed after what was an almost spiritual performance. I may be wrong, but I felt a little tear in my eye during my favourite song of theirs, Carl Perkins' ...
