Tom Waits at Theatre le Palace 1979 part1

[@johnzenger7880]

Here we are 40 years later still yearning for an experience like Tom Waits live.

[@jfbrette400]

I was 20 years old, I was there and I still feel it today

[@opredeleno]

I envy you wholeheartedly. Must've been great to soak in the atmosphere.

[@sawtoothdan]

Dear God. Can we just all agree that this Waits performance at Thatre le Palace is one of the greatest vocal performances ever? The guy is just magical, raw genius. And so many people say T. Waits can't sing!!! 8,000 views of this video - some of greatest art available anywhere, for free. Thanks Twoey2E. Top tier video AND visuals. Stunning.

[@opredeleno]

yes, we all agree! Me on behalf of humanity :-) (PS. also the glitter and doom live is epic)

[@a.e.r.7745]

Always loved Tom Waits, am so glad there are 3 more of this series. Spectacular.

[@vtheb1299]

One of my favorite live Tom Waits shows ever. I like the sexy smirk on the host too.

[@swisa1120]

Been watching this for 11 years. What a great video.

[@bekaauvil7524]

One of the best performances by Tom I’ve seen so far! I just recently discovered him!

[@opredeleno]

I have a theory, one can never have a single favorite Tom Waits song. :-)

[@Yantryman]

Since my last comment here, my wife stoled my kids, lost meaning of life, took a deep in alcohol and stayed there for some time...and now i am back here. Nothing changed, him still coolest cat, only now saving my life. I started writing...thank you Tom.

[@kingjohn455]

The person who left the link in another comment section two years ago thank you!!!

[@Yantryman]

After 9 years of being fan of this coolest cat in a town, I need to say this is his coolest performance!

[@DirkjeA]

This man does not stop to amaze me. One of the greatest musicians and poets I have ever come across. He has a way of painting life, it hurts to the core of my body. One of the few artists that know how to touch my very soul.

[@voltron3000]

i love the part 4:20 when Tom goes: "WAHHH YAYAYAYA WAHHH WAHHH WA-WAAAHH!...... WAAAAHHH WAAAHHHHYAAYAYAYAHHA WAAA WUUAAAA!"

[@DirkjeA]

This is Tom Waits as I like him, he is just one of those old loves, you never forget the rest of your live. Thanks for the upload, made me a happy dutch lady

[@davidbroussard2051]

[@zootchannel380]

[@zootchannel380]

[@floyd65]

In 100 years this will still be cool as fuck.

[@davidbroussard2051]

Ilove ur speech

[@opredelenooo]

It's 8 am Monday and already promising to be a dreadful week, but just for 10:21 minutes I feel like I'm having lots of fun in a bar and life doesn't suck.

[@davidbroussard2051]

Hm .just retire.

[@davidbroussard2051]

Thr name? Croat? Serbian? Cool.

[@swisa1120]

The amount of times I have watched it.

[@71426cudaconvertible]

love it hes beyond coolest

[@sivartpoker]

the way he lights his cigarrete in the intro of "till the money runs out" is really cool

[@floatmeon]

this is great stuff! thanks for posting

[@sstoys2]

he's the definition of cool

[@roberthermans6357]

Incredible! Who in France, 1979, would understand this music? And they broadcast this on tv? That's great! I mean, this was (an maybe still is) alternative music back then? Punk-Jazz??

[@agusfuentes5199]

Gracias por tanto tom

[@ELGEvilLawnGnome]

@BudBusterbaby There will never be someone else with that much fucking class...

[@dearmalika]

Fantastic performance! Thanks for posting!

[@stebbeX]

The old normal. Love it

[@andymouse]

[@shalemamiran7234]

Oh yeah

[@andymouse]

oh yes !!

[@swisa1120]

greatest thing on youtube

[@MrSteveVie]

love it !!

[@outlivedtint]

This man can single handedly beat every potential anti smoking point ever made by making it look THAT cool.

[@GrandePlinio]

Muito massa! \m/

[@jamesbond89940]

Oh my god, has anyone seen anything cooler from 5:15 - 5:55??

[@TheDrunkmantis193]

only 9:46-10:20 )

[@andymouse]

oh! yes saw!!!

[@andymouse]

WOW...I was thinking the same thing!!

[@claudiarudolph6058]

great great........

[@v.mvarga4979]

6:35 to 6:41 i absolutely love that part, the smoke is so smooth in that one

[@benmoore701]

I love it too...though right now my fave is elephant beer blues.look that up, songs after closing time, it's killer, and also the song smugglers lullaby

[@andymouse]

i no what you mean it's almost addictive

[@joanieboyles9203]

Sure wish I could have seen him up close and personal do a show.

[@andymouse]

hell yes!!!!!

[@陽地達也TatsuyaYouchi]

最高！

[@andymouse]

king of cool!

[@anononomous]

Remember kids, smoking isn't cool; Tom Waits is cool.

[@sambamachineryrecords6498]

WOW ... MTV MISSED FILMING HIM .... ???

[@bludsassij]

thats fucking hysterical, but so true..

[@LadyeXo]

@mooshashie I hear he's actually amazingly shy. That's another one of the reasons he won't talk about his family. I would LOVE to just sit and talk with him, but I'd be so anxious I'd die.

[@aramanon]

Ooh, screamin jay hawkins does a chilling cover of HAnV. Check that out too

[@sugababesrule]

The king of cool

[@Russianprime]

Man, when he performed this, Heart attack and vine hadn't even come out. These are my favorite versions of these two songs. his face kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3iToWWAfcimh5I so good

[@gyudbal]

+Jebay McRickenz the way he starts the second song...

[@tubhair]

I would have sold my kids to be at this concert. But they weren’t born yet.

[@smellofrain6093]

WTF that's cool

[@2Juiceman]

Twoey - Thanks for the vinatge Tom Waits - what a post - Juiceman

[@stephaniesaysstfu]

because different people like different stuff, it's all good though! personally, I'm a fan of both. I dig Tom Waits a hell of a lot more than Lady Gaga - and I'd pay hundreds to see him but definitely not even $60 to see her, but I enjoy her for what she is. no need to compare/contrast... just dig whatcha' dig.

[@612franklin]

Extra Anchor. Extra Anchor.

[@jamesbond89940]

That grouchy guitar on the Album I definitely prefer.. But hey I'm not bothered with an organ ey?

[@opredeleno]

his voice is like honey over iron nails

[@gerriannegodman4572]

Well put..

[@joanieboyles9203]

Coolest of cool. Baddest of bad.

[@Shawnruss]

Theres this nifty thing called google, it a search engine, its wild. Just google 'heart attack and vine lyrics', and you'll be amazed!

[@andymouse]

@LadyeXo yeah he is shy ya can see it in the inteviews but what a talent eh ?

[@NotAFanAnymore]

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me Than a frontal lobotomy

[@andymouse]

anybody got the lyrics for this please?

[@andymouse]

guess we sing from the same sheet my friend

[@andymouse]

@KatieHippieWannaBe yep! packed it in now when he got hitched !!!

[@shawndimery]

@outlivedtint haha yes! I want to start smoking so I look as cool as Tom!

[@davidbroussard2051]

K

[@bottledspace]

@BudBusterbaby hahaha couldn't have said it better myself.

[@mobilerepear9262]

158 no sub kora satha ace

[@thomasprzyrowski3811]

this is simply just cool,can you dig it ?#$%^&^%

[@EnglishFolker]

Along with Miles Davis............

[@waltzingmatilda5625]

The band is awesome but the best instrument is Waits voice

[@andymouse]

[@Yantryman]

Also, its clear that he drinked here so much that a bottle is drunk on him l, also looks like cigs are smoking him here

[@andymouse]

@KatieHippieWannaBe it don't get much better than this..hmmm...he's got something more than cool...don't no exactly what it is...but he has load's of it hehehehehe

[@andymouse]

hi thanks but tom aint singing quite the same, as there appeares to be a whole verse missing oh well who gives a shit it's so cool

[@EnglishFolker]

Tom Waits and Miles Davis...the two dudes God wishes he could be...........

[@andymouse]

@Snotra insult

[@magicmatt1969]

Tried many times to listen to this so called "Great". Truth is, he is terrible...

[@windyhead7960]

There is no truth. Everything is subjective, YOU don't like it, I do, simple as that.
