Sandi

Hey people. If u saw the last episode of the last series of Bachelor's Walk then u might be able to help me. Y'know when the 3 of them are sitting around the table and they're playing this blues song? What is the song and/or who is it by?
(I didn't see this. It's me mate who wants to know)
Any info at all will be greatly appreciated

Hey,
can't remember the tune. I watched the series first time around, so it's been a while. Anyhoo, I'm pretty damn sure it was Tom Waits.... I'm checking with a mate to see which song it was

polarbelly

Yes it was Tom Waits, pretty early, and if I remember correctly was Kentucky Avenue , from Blue Valentine, 1978 - it ended:

take the spokes from your wheelchair
and a magpies wings
and tie em to your shoulders and your feet
i'll steal a hacksaw from my dad
and cut the braces off your legs
and we'll bury them tonight in the cornfield

put a church key in your pocket
we'll hop that freight train in the hall
and we'll slide down the drain all the way
to new orleans in the fall



Classic album - everyone should own one.

Also for any diehard Tom fans who haven't heard his booking agent has announced he will be touring before Christmas, but from what I've heard he probably won't be touring outside America. So be very nice to your bank manager!

I've only gotten into Tom WAits in teh last couple of weeks, but he's really really good, I'd recommend the Closing Time album to ya'll !!!
Peace,
