Waits, Tom - My Father's Place 1977

NEW VINYL LP ON DOL 2014.

2 X 180 GRAM VINYL.

This superb live recording is from late 1977 and finds Tom holding court in fine style at legendary New York venue, My Father’s Place. Despite its small capacity - circa 400 people – this humble abode hosted shows by superstars like Bruce Springsteen, Billy Joel, Bob Marley, The Ramones and U2 during the 16 years it was open for business (1971-1987). It was also a hugely popular recording location for Long Island’s revered WLIR radio station, who broadcast the show across the airwaves. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Waits
