also tbh waits 80s and 90s music doesnt sound remotely dated because nobody sounds liek this dude

he does sound like captain beefheart sometimes tho

I’ve never heard of him but this song is mad good, i love his voice the most above all. What album do you recommend?

Both great but Dylan is my personal GOAT so it’s always gonna be him

hey guys

it’s xmas right..

the lyrics man

yeah bill has an interesting story, he did two albums in 1970 and 71 then got dropped by his label, he only came back in 2012

he released an album this year i havnt got around to yet

but def go for “time of the last persecution”

Townes van zandt

yo hes fire.

Sadly, Time of the Last Persecution is like the only classic Bill Fay album on streaming.

Tomorrow Tomorrow and Tomorrow, an archival release from the 2000s that was recorded in the late 70s, is nearly as good but only available on YouTube:

The self titled is on there as a playlist but quality is suspect. People should support the artist, but this does make it harder to get into his work.

I watch this every year and it's always funny af

S*** gets so crazy by the end, someone jumps out a window

yessir spreading the word out here! 🗣🗣 tell em

gonna listen to his last album tonight

Listening to Time of the Last Persecution is like watching the apocalypse while you're on percs.

I don't know many albums that sound so warm and organic while also being that heavy and depressing. It's a strange album but amazing.

man you telling me, bill fay is king of heavy s***... whew..

again i can’t stress enough that war machine song, from when it dropped to today, it still hurts

This bill guy is cool

Dylan, but I respect Waits. should get into his music more, Rain Dogs is fantastic

tom a goat but dylan made blood on the tracks

no u

Listening to his 2012 album cause his earlier s*** isnt on spotify

Reminds me a bit of roger waters solo stuff mixed with chris de burgh

time of the last persecution ain’t there?

yeah i can see that, he’s very engaged

Nah only albums from 2005 2012 2015 2020

loved the 2015 one

feel like making a nice tom waits thread anyone into it? @RVI @Noir

yes for sure, tho i havent been listening to him very much recently. we got a lot of big fans in the fam thread

me neither and it’s not like he drops but feel like he deserves it
