    so, this record has a couple great songs on it, but it is not good on the whole. There is more bad than good on this album and the bad songs are also really really long. I think one could make a two sided, normal length record with the great tracks from this and somebody should have told Tom as much before he released this thing. Everyone knows you're brilliant, but you still need an editor.

      Just got a well cared for copy of this and its so nice to hear these songs the way I was introduced to them. Claypool's basslines are gitty af. The remasters are great but this original sound is grittier and more raw which for Tom Waits might go a little over board but in a great way. The sound peaks a bit sometimes and some of the instruments get a bit lost so it's both better and worse but it feels so good to hear them this way again. Yes please He's a damn genius.

        I much prefer the mastering on this pressing, there is an intentional murk over everything, sounds right

          I didn't quite care for "Bad As Me", so in my mind "Real Gone" is the last truly great Waits album. (And has it really been 16 years?!) It feels like a concept album, the way that Waits brings in a unified production sense to give each song its place in the overall album. Amazing chorus hooks shouldn't work as much as they do in "experimental" lo-fi rock music, but Waits is the master of them.

            This album is a masterpiece! Make it rain, trampled rose, Hoist that rag! Great players and Tom is spectacular as always.

                Is it true that there are 2 different versions of this? one is a gatefold and the other isn't? If so, is there anyway to tell the difference if purcahsing online?
