Originally released in 1993 on Island Records, The Black Rider is Tom Waits’ 12th studio album. The Black Rider is a musical comedy\/horror collaboration between artists: Robert Wilson (director\/designer) writer\/Beat guru, William S. Burroughs (text) and Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan (music). Not a cast album, this Island Records release is Tom’s interpretation and performance of the songs he had originally created for the stage production of The Black Rider. The music is a Waitsian concoction of pop, vaudeville, rock, cabaret and blues – a brew that is strangely familiar yet absolutely fresh.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe unlikely source material is rooted in German Romantic literature and the Weber opera, “Der Freischutz” (although Waits’ music does not quote from the Weber score), The story concerns a marksman who makes a pact with the devil (in the guise of a shadowy horseman) in order to win a shooting contest and hence claim his bride.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA cross between the musical, Cabaret and The Threepenny Opera, The Black Rider is brimming with the sort of inspired originality that can only flow from the mind of Tom Waits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe album is newly remastered for the first time ever from the original ½” flat master tape and personally overseen by Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan. Mastered by Chris Bellman at Bernie Grundman Mastering under the guidance of Waits’ longtime audio engineer, Karl Derfler. The album packaging has also been restored. The Black Rider includes tracks such as “November,” “Russian Dance” and “The Briar And The Rose.” Available on 180g black vinyl.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRACKLIST\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 1 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Lucky Day Overture\u003cbr\u003e2 The Black Rider\u003cbr\u003e3 November\u003cbr\u003e4 Just the Right Bullets\u003cbr\u003e5 Black Box Theme\u003cbr\u003e6 'Tain't No Sin\u003cbr\u003e7 Flash Pan Hunter\/Intro\u003cbr\u003e8 That's the Way\u003cbr\u003e9 The Briar and the Rose\u003cbr\u003e10 Russian Dance\u003cbr\u003e- Disc 2 -\u003cbr\u003e1 Gospel Train\/Orchestra\u003cbr\u003e2 I'll Shoot the Moon\u003cbr\u003e3 Flash Pan Hunter\u003cbr\u003e4 Crossroads\u003cbr\u003e5 Gospel Train\u003cbr\u003e6 Interlude\u003cbr\u003e7 Oily Night\u003cbr\u003e8 Lucky Day\u003cbr\u003e9 The Last Rose of the Summer\u003cbr\u003e10 Carnival\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLABEL: Island\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUPC: 602448894885\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nail City Record","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67915853562175,"sku":"zyy1793503434746","price":19.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0988\/5922\/1311\/files\/tom-waits---black-rider-2023-remaster-lp-vinyl_1_6b996d1d-be41-4f5a-866b-104b0a458ed3.jpg?v=1793503466","url":"https:\/\/ivoplushshop.shop\/products\/tom-waits-black-rider-2023-remaster-lp-vinyl-44191","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
