‘All these bulletproof songs, one after another’: remembering Tom Waits’s extraordinary mid-career trilogy Forty years on from the magnificent sequence that began with Swordfishtrombones, collaborators and fans including Jim Jarmusch and Thom Yorke discuss Waits’s journey from bar-room balladeer to conductor of a junkyard orchestra

"At the precise moment when music was becoming synthesised and digitised and sampled, Tom Waits insisted on its traditions of heavy lifting. 'Anyone who has ever played a piano,' he liked to say, 'would really like to hear how it sounds when dropped from a 12th-floor window.'"

Having watched Andor S2 four or five times already, I think history will recognise its value and timelessness more than the Grammys did.

This is a really interesting interview - *really* interesting. Well worth a read.

Agent Claw If you are a normal well adjusted person with a healthy lifestyle there's a good chance you haven't heard of OpenClaw yet. Readers of a certain age and with discerning taste will read that and immediately think of Dr Claw from Inspector Gadget or maybe the slightly less discerning will think of the Cobra C.L.A.W. From GI Joe but sadly I’m not going to be talking about either of those childhood gems today.

I’ve managed to squeeze in a fair bit of niche music into the pages of the Guardian over the years, but especially chuffed with getting to cover the waltzer sound system wars of Hull Fair. www.theguardian.com/music/2025/o...
