{"product_id":"tom-waits-brawlers-remastered-2lp","title":"Tom Waits - Brawlers (Remastered) [2LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eBrawlers is the rowdiest third of Tom Waits' sprawling Orphans collection, pulled out on its own as a remastered double LP and as bruised as that title suggests.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrphans arrived in 2006 as a three-part gathering of rarities, soundtrack contributions, covers and freshly recorded songs, produced by Waits and his wife and longtime collaborator Kathleen Brennan. Each part had its own temperament, and Brawlers took the stompers, the blues hollers and the protest songs, the material that sounds best through a cracked amp in a room with a creaky floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Lie to Me\" kicks things off as a rockabilly sprint with a growl in its throat, while \"Road to Peace\" turns his gravel voice toward the news, a long, unflinching look at violence in the Middle East. There's a ragged, affectionate run through the Ramones' \"The Return of Jackie and Judy\", and his take on \"Sea of Love\" turns the old Phil Phillips ballad into something smoky and faintly menacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe songs were recorded across nearly two decades, yet they hang together like one long night in a bar where the band never stops and nobody wants them to.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor anyone who loves the junkyard clatter of Rain Dogs or Bone Machine, this is Waits with his sleeves rolled up and the amps turned toward the street.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67757783122210,"sku":"045778755011","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/2080\/8994\/files\/Tom_Waits-Brawlers_Remastered_2LP.jpg?v=1794291653","url":"https:\/\/soulfulvinyl.com\/products\/tom-waits-brawlers-remastered-2lp","provider":"Soulful Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
