MUSiC/MEDiA: Tom Waits Closing Time 50th Posters, Pt. 1

Ordered these a few days ago.

In the midst of recent Jack Kerouac Beat reveries, I got to thinking a lot about ol’ Tom Waits.

This lead to me discovering (or, more accurately, re-discovering) the recent Closing Time 50th anniversary stuff.

I think Closing Time itself was recorded some time in ‘72 – the year I was born! – but not released until March ‘73. Anyway, whatever, as folks say these days. I love it!

I discovered that you could buy these fab double-sided posters. Naturally I ordered two, so as to be able to display both wonderful sides.

They served today. And boy, are they beautiful. Printed very jerky, on heavy paper stock, they are approx’ 45cmx60cm (18”×24”).

In the past I’ve just blue-tacked posters or large pics on my walls. These, however, deserve, no, demand framing. Can’t wait to get them up!
