Tom Waits | Real Gone (Remixed & Remastered) | Vinyl

Co-produced by Tom Waits and his longtime collaborator and wife Kathleen Brennan, the record replaces piano with vocal beatboxing, turntable scratching, and found-object percussion for one of the most sonically adventurous entries in Waits’ catalog. Harp Magazine named it album of the year in 2004, and the sprawling closer “Day After Tomorrow” stands as an oblique protest song addressing the Iraq War. It marked Waits’ first new studio album in five years following Mule Variations and Alice/Blood Money. The 2017 reissue was newly remixed and remastered, restoring dynamic range for this 180-gram double-LP pressing.
