    Show notes

    Beyond the final track, Martin, Sam and Isy round things off with a single from (but not on) The Heart of Saturday Night, teasing apart Waits's relationship with his band, his woman, and his own earlier version of this song.

    The Ghosts Of Saturday Night, The Heart Of Saturday Night, Tom Waits [023] Jan 13, 2016
    Show notes

    The final song of The Heart of Saturday Night takes on a contemplative air, with Isy, Sam and Martin looking at the structure of both this track as well as the album as a whole. The virtue of the "Best Of" compilation, the wonder of covering Frank Zappa, and Waits as a voyeur wrap up our discussion... but not our season.

    Drunk on the Moon, The Heart of Saturday Night, Tom Waits [022] Jan 06, 2016
    Show notes

    Back from the Christmas break, Isy Suttie rejoins Martin and Sam to examine some of the connective tissue between Waits and his influences and peers. Discussing the relationship between artist, music and listener in live and recorded settings, as well as some of his early experiences touring, 2016 starts with a bang as we... wind down season 2. That's the right tone to strike for the New Year, right?

    Show notes

    Martin and Sam are joined by Tom Waits's close personal friend Isy Suttie to discuss the final tracks of The Heart of Saturday Night. Metaphorical vs literal locations, the romance of working-class life vs the reality, and lying to taxi drivers all feature.

    Please Call Me, Baby, The Heart Of Saturday Night, Tom Waits [020] Dec 09, 2015
    Show notes

    Contradictions and oppositions abound this episode, as Alice makes her departure from Sam and Martin. Discussion centers on the politics of pet names, social compromise and... some more ridiculous stuff too. Who will our next guest host be? Have we jumped the shark on interval tracks? Where will Alice be drinking tonight?!?

    The Heart of Saturday Night, The Heart of Saturday Night, Tom Waits [018] Nov 25, 2015
    Show notes

    Sam, Martin and Alice arrive at the album's title track, and discover that the Heart of Saturday Night is perhaps something a little less grand than one might imagine. Stumbling through the surprises, the accidental encounters and the distant relatives dropping calling without warning all prove a heady night's entertainment.

    Show notes

    New guest-host Alice Sanders joins to talk through her feelings for both Tom Waits and Jack Kerouac as we venture into a Beat Poetry-influenced tale of the Southern Californian roads. Please note that, despite Sam's insistence, Diamonds On My Windshield does not appear on Nighthawks At The Diner - he's very sorry and will be more precise in future!

    Shiver Me Timbers, The Heart of Saturday Night, Tom Waits [016] Nov 11, 2015
    Show notes

    Martin waxes lyrical about a life on the open waves, and Sam and Anna view the whole endeavour a little more fatalistically. Perhaps that had an unpleasant experience on a ferry as small children?
