Last Leaf, Bad As Me, Tom Waits [424]

We're heading towards conclusions, both in albums and in life, as Andrea Warner joins with Martin and Sam to examine another Tom and Keith team up. The hubris of Waits's sentiments, the juxtaposition of humour and pain in music, and a consideration of vestigial tails all feature in this week's discussion.  website: songbysongpodcast.com twitter: @songbysongpod e-mail: [email protected] Music extracts used for illustrative/review purposes include: Last Leaf, Bad As Me, Tom Waits (2011) Pale Green Things, The Sunset Tree, The Mountain Goats (2005) We think your Song by Song experience will be enhanced by hearing, in full, the songs featured in the show, which you can get hold of from your favourite record shop or online platform.
