Tom Waits on Everything and Nothing

"I don’t know what the ‘big time’ is" Tom Waits in 1988 As told to Chris Roberts (from http://Rocksbackpages.com) Hear more from this rare interview: http://blankonblank.org/tom-waits "He’s a natural raconteur. A great one. You just get out of the way and let him do his thing, perform. If you can nudge the jokes along, so much the better." - Chris Roberts on interviewing Tom Waits. From this glorious interview (recorded on cassette tape) we decided to just dip inside the mind of Tom Waits. So he takes us to church, Stonehenge, the streets of New York and inside a Hawaiian nightmare. The interview was recorded in a London recording studio and you can hear muffled music throughout the conversation. Get more on Tom Waits, his turn as an aniamated cartoon in the 1970s, paling around with Keith Richards and Charles Bukowski and GIFs from the episode: http://blankonblank.org/tom-waits Subscribe for new episodes every other Tuesday (it's free): http://www.youtube.com/subscription_c...
