Tom Waits will be releasing limited edition vinyl of his albums ‘Alice’ and ‘Blood Money’ to commemorate their 20th anniversary; originally released on May 7, 2002, the re-issues will be available on October 7. Waits’ official merch store will feature translucent blue for ‘Alice’ and translucent red for ‘Blood Money.’ Other variants will also be available in independent record stores and online. Pre-order these versions of ‘Alice’ HERE and ‘Blood Money’ HERE.
Leading up to the official release date, Waits is putting out previously unreleased live versions of songs from the records, starting with “All the World is Green” from ’Blood Money’ and “Fish and Bird” from ’Alice.’ “All the World is Green” was recorded at a live show in Milan, Italy and features a dramatic faux flamenco guitar intro, while “Fish and Bird” is taken from Waits’ celebrated return to the London stage in 2004 and is a stripped down raw piano version of the ballad that featured a chamber orchestra arrangement in the studio recording.
