(Tom Waits - "Drunk On The Moon" - Live at the Troubadour, August 16, 1975)

Since putting up my Buffalo Springfield Hollywood Bowl clip last week, I've been making a lot of discoveries in the live performance department from my archive. Here's another one. This time via a night at the Troubadour, during one of my brief stints as a nightclub soundmixer. It's from August 16, 1975 - the quintessential Hot August Night. The second set - Waits is in great form - so is the audience.

Drunk On The Moon kind of sez it all . . . . .
