Tom Waits "Bone Machine" cassette tape

A Past Prime classic — the platonic instance of an aging artist finding revelation in middle-age. Waits was already a beloved cult artist, operating just below the surface of the mainstream. He was a critical darling. But he didn’t have a “masterpiece” in his oeuvre, until this one. Nearly an album of gospel barn burners, ancient blues and howlin folk, the standouts include “Dirt in the Ground,” “Jesus Gonna Be Here” and “The Feel,” a duet with Keith Richards. Tape in excellent vintage condition.
