Been sat In the garden for most of the morning with my 12 string Faith acoustic playing/trying to play this awesome Rolling Stones song 'Good Times-Bad Times'. Supporting this bloody club of ours means you sign up for good times bad times.
My Father had a profound influence on me, he was a lunatic.

I was the typical young man in the early seventies, wine, women and song, met a young lady who totally stole my heart, the first one that had managed to break through that tough gruff exterior that was part of my growing up, she was such a beautiful person, helped me so much at times of real hardship and pain, and yet I still didn't take with both hands something that many can go through life without, the day came when even she could take no more and called it a day.
Was at a friends party the last time I ever saw her and this song was playing on the decks, my mate said it wasn't on purpose.......... maybe just fate,
I do have great regrets I never treated her with the tenderness and respect she deserved.

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the Earth all one’s lifetime. (Mark Twain)

Glory Box but also Sour Times. I am a sucker for that suspense drama Hungarian/Eastern Europe instrument that sounds like every Sherlock Holmes or Victorian murder mystery.
This always takes me back to when it was getting close to lights up and I thought I was in...then wasn't....which happened a lot.
From the album Closing Time which is another good place to start your Tom Waits Journey. Nighthawks at the Diner is another with a generous sprinkling of humour for good measure.

Love this. Remember being in Ireland as a kid and my cousin had this on a compilation album. Only other record I remember being on it was Kong Ku fighting.

Great thread. Tom Waits is The Man for me (Saturday Night ... Jersey Girl ... The Piano Has Been Drinking ... all amazing tunes) but when I was younger it was Springsteen. Then he made some rubbish and I wasn't that interested anymore. Until he came out with Western Stars album, and this track, Moonlight Motel.
