About a month before the release of Tom Waits' sophomore album The Heart Of Saturday Night, the man himself dropped by KPFK-FM out of Los Angeles, on 23rd July 1974, to appear on an episode of the station's famous and highly regarded 'Folk Scene' programme. Presented by Howard Larman since 1970, the Sunday evening show was known for playing an eclectic blend of roots music and featuring all manner of singer/songwriters in session. The likes of Richard Thompson, Willie Nelson and Ry Cooder were among those who performed live on the show across its 30 year run; Tom Waits himself played and was interviewed by Larman on three separate occasions. His second appearance is the one presented on this fascinating CD, during which Tom performs a number of tracks from his upcoming record and a couple from his debut Closing Time, released the previous year, mixed throughout with some in-depth chat with his host, revealing much about his mood and ambitions at this time in his career. Including 20 tracks in all, 10 songs and 10 interview segments, this recording is a legendary part of the Tom Waits archive which should form part of every fan's collection.
