This recording, captured at the State Theatre, Sydney, Australia in March 1979, features a captivating performance by Tom Waits from a time when the maverick crooner was on the cusp of a major change in the style and substance of his recorded output and his live shows. The material performed here comes largely from what were his most recent three albums at the time, with classics like ‘Tom Traubert’s Blues’ and ‘Jitterbug Boy’ rubbing shoulders with newer cuts like ‘Red Shoes By The Drugstore.’
