This isn't Burma Shave as I know it, from the album Asylum Years. Lovely song in that version too, but completely different song. That album and Nighthawks at the diner are my faves, seeing as the singing is "natural".

A few years ago I found an 'unofficial' album called Cold Beer on a Hot Night, it was a live performance from 197-something, and it had the most amazing recording of Burma Shave. I lost my copy of it and I'm still looking...

Present day? Exactly what did did produce someone better? Tom once said of Louis Armstrong that he was a natural. That he just sort of grew out of the ground like a potato. I can's think of a better description of Tom, himself.

If you can, get hold of "Cold Beer on a Hot Night", live in Sydney 78. There's a version on there of this song that will chill your bones to ice..

Absolutely NOBODY of the present day singers can ever top him when it comes to being cool. Justin Timberlake, you'd better start working for the burger king again, Tom Waits is way above what you'll ever can accomplish.
