I love the interludes where it’s like cowboy samba surf rock. That’s a very unique sound.
Mule Variations is a top ten album for me
I only learned a little bit ago that this, along with a couple other albums, are meant to be rock opera/stage productions. I wish there were versions of the stage productions (in english), that were easily available. Black Rider has a german production floating around on yt.
Blood Money is a musical production of Woyzeck. Herzog also made a movie of Woyzeck, but I’d love to see a Waits stage production.
I was listening through the whole album last night- there’s a 2023 remaster on Spotify that doesn’t seem to be available on youtube- and kept thinking it’d work great as a musical. It’s such an atmospheric album. That’s going on the list of things to see live someday.
Yeah. It’s for sure on mine. I also adore that track. It just draws up such dark fairytale images in my mind. I’d love a cartoon adaptation of the album in the style of Over The Garden Wall.
