Thank you for this video. "Closing time" is my favourite Tom Waits's album and it's a pity he decided to stop performing it not long after its release. I read an old interview about this fact - interview that I've never managed to find again - where he said that he doesn't really like that much anymore: he said something like "It was my fist album and those songs where soaked with a sense of ..." but I don't remember what he was talking about. Anyway, this song is a gem.

This is such a wonderful, great, helpful video. I loved the details on what else was going on in the song, not just what Tom was playing. And the background on those other musicians. Thank you so much for giving me the details on how to play the song. This is one of those songs that seems pretty simple (the good old I, IV, V as you say) but there are a lot of subtleties in Tom's playing that are not readily apparent and that I doubt I would have been able to get on my own. So thank you for this. It's much appreciated. P.S. The first verse of this song showed up in the new movie "Flora and Son" on Apple TV which is where I thought to try and learn it.

best examples of Toms early finger picking were those albums "Tom Waits early years vol 1 and 2"..just bare bones demos done before his first album i believe..the demo version of Ol55 is far superior than what was on his first album..their amongst his best i reckon. I hope that i don't fall etc..is better on the demo
