Notes
180-gram LP
New version of 2011’s Bad As Me
Remastered by Waits and his wife and musical collaborator, Kathleen Brennan
Tom Waits’ Bad as Me features a stellar cast of musicians, and co-production and songwriting from Kathleen Brennan. While the trademarks of Waits’ 21st century music are showcased in tracks such as “Chicago” and “Hell Broke Luce,” there are also nods back, in ballads such as “Last Leaf” and the barroom chorale “New Year’s Eve.” “Raised Right Men” is a modern take on Waits’ blues clatter, while “Satisfied” employs his take on gospel.
