MUSIC SIGNPOSTS ON THE WEB'S LONELY ROAD

(13)


Elsewhere on MOG at this moment  a roadie  for a middle-of-the-road rock musician is heard to say that this is the best song ever.  This claim seems worth a 99 cent expenditure to investigate.  Let's all find out together.

I saw this musical play, "Franks Wild Years," in which Waits acted, and which was presented by the prestigious Steppenwolf Theatre company.  "You're Innocent When You Dream"  was the standout track in my opinion.  Check out his legendary stage patter, while appreciating that the singing is going to repel as many as it attracts:
