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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack List: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e    1 Lucky Day Overture\u003cbr\u003e    2 The Black Rider\u003cbr\u003e    3 November\u003cbr\u003e    4 Just the Right Bullets\u003cbr\u003e    5 Black Box Theme\u003cbr\u003e    6 'Tain't No Sin\u003cbr\u003e    7 Flash Pan Hunter\/Intro\u003cbr\u003e    8 That's the Way\u003cbr\u003e    9 The Briar and the Rose\u003cbr\u003e    10 Russian Dance\u003cbr\u003e    11 Gospel Train\/Orchestra\u003cbr\u003e    12 I'll Shoot the Moon\u003cbr\u003e    13 Flash Pan Hunter\u003cbr\u003e    14 Crossroads\u003cbr\u003e    15 Gospel Train\u003cbr\u003e    16 Interlude\u003cbr\u003e    17 Oily Night\u003cbr\u003e    18 Lucky Day\u003cbr\u003e    19 The Last Rose of the Summer\u003cbr\u003e    20 Carnival\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShop online at \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/\"\u003eDarkside Records\u003c\/a\u003e 24\/7.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollow us on \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/darksiderecordspk\/\"\u003eInstagram\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57416409907535,"sku":"602448894885","price":4.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/8725\/2047\/files\/o4kqfgo2lvx3xnqg4kqo.jpg?v=1775560399","url":"https:\/\/vibesvinyl.com\/products\/tom-waits-the-black-rider-2023-remaster-180g-vinyl-preorder","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
