Thirty-Five years after its original release, Waits’ sophomore album is pressed on 180 gram vinyl in North America. Ranked in Rolling Stone’s best albums of all time, The Heart of Saturday Night shows him further developing his jazzy beatnik delivery with a hint of blues as Waits puts forward pained love songs and jilted observations from the under-appreciated corners of life with a wit and conviction that few can. With such timeless songs like “Diamonds on my Windshield,” “Shiver Me Timbers” and “New Coat Of Paint,” you‘re reminded that Waits has been a unique artist from the beginning.
