TOM WAITS - NIGHTHAWKS AT THE DINER (50TH TOM WAITS

Tom Waits' Nighthawks at the Diner was recorded live at the Record Plant in Los Angeles in 1975, transforming the studio into a late-night jazz club for two nights only. Backed by a stellar ensemble, Waits delivers some of his most beloved early songs, including 'Warm Beer, Cold Women' and 'Eggs and Sausage'. Between numbers, his offbeat humour and sharp stage patter make the album feel like an intimate performance in a smoke-filled bar. A cornerstone of his catalogue, it showcases the mix of beat-poet cool, jazz-soaked atmosphere, and vivid storytelling that would come to define his career.
