{"product_id":"tom-waits-the-black-rider-lp","title":"Tom Waits - The Black Rider (LP)","description":"\u003cp\u003e2023 Marks 30 years since Tom Waits released The Black Rider. Originally released in 1993 on Island Records, The Black Rider is Tom Waits’ 12th studio album. The Black Rider is a musical comedy\/horror collaboration between artists: Robert Wilson (director\/designer) writer\/Beat guru, William S. Burroughs (text) and Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan (music). Not a cast album, this Island Records release is Tom’s interpretation and performance of the songs he had originally created for the stage production of The Black Rider. The music is a Waitsian concoction of pop, vaudeville, rock, cabaret and blues – a brew that is strangely familiar yet absolutely fresh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe unlikely source material is rooted in German Romantic literature and the Weber opera, “Der Freischutz” (although Waits’ music does not quote from the Weber score), The story concerns a marksman who makes a pact with the devil (in the guise of a shadowy horseman) in order to win a shooting contest and hence claim his bride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA cross between the musical, Cabaret and The Threepenny Opera, The Black Rider is brimming with the sort of inspired originality that can only flow from the mind of Tom Waits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe album is newly remastered for the first time ever from the original ½” flat master tape and personally overseen by Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan. Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering under the guidance of Waits’ longtime audio engineer, Karl Derfler. The album packaging has also been restored. The Black Rider includes tracks such as “November,” “Russian Dance” and “The Briar And The Rose.” Available on 180g black vinyl. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Electronic, Rock, Pop, Folk, Country, Stage \u0026amp; Screen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemember, for our lowest prices, always order directly from \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(184, 49, 47);\"\u003e Joco Records\u003c\/span\u003e!\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack Listing:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA1 Lucky Day (Overture) 2:26\u003cbr\u003eA2 The Black Rider 3:20\u003cbr\u003eA3 November 2:50\u003cbr\u003eA4 Just The Right Bullets 3:35\u003cbr\u003eA5 Black Box Theme 2:45\u003cbr\u003eA6 'T' Ain't No Sin 2:35\u003cbr\u003eA7 Flash Pan Hunter (Intro) 1:11\u003cbr\u003eA8 That's The Way 1:11\u003cbr\u003eA9 The Briar And The Rose 3:50\u003cbr\u003eA10 Russian Dance 3:10\u003cbr\u003eB1 Gospel Train (Orchestra) 2:35\u003cbr\u003eB2 I'll Shoot The Moon 3:50\u003cbr\u003eB3 Flash Pan Hunter 3:05\u003cbr\u003eB4 Crossroads 2:45\u003cbr\u003eB5 Gospel Train 4:40\u003cbr\u003eB6 Interlude 0:30\u003cbr\u003eB7 Oily Night 4:25\u003cbr\u003eB8 Lucky Day 3:45\u003cbr\u003eB9 The Last Rose Of Summer 2:10\u003cbr\u003eB10 Carnival 1:30\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Joco Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48098163032323,"sku":"8GAMAB-84B9-00","price":29.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/phishstonesproducts.myshopify.com\/products\/tom-waits-the-black-rider-lp","provider":"PhishStones Products","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
