Bob Dylan, Keith Richards & Tom Waits: A cappella


I just returned from a Columbia Record Co. party in New York where they previewed the upcoming release by the trio of Bob Dylan, Keith Richards and Tom Waits singing a cappella love songs. Who could ever imagine the three worst voices in music harmonizing to such exquisite perfection. Some of the tracks are classics: Somewhere Over The Rainbow, Strangers In The Night, You'll Never Walk Alone, The Sound of Music, and my favorite, In The Still Of The Night. There are a few original tracks composed by the trio: Keith Richards-She Only Loves Me After I Bathe, Bob Dylan-Who Am I, and Tom Waits-Ipecac and Roses.

I have a *priceless* recording of Shaquille O' Neal, William S. Burroughs, and Rosie Perez singing "Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire." I really feel it's better than the Dylan/Richards/Waits combination, but that's just a personal choice.

P.S.--In all honesty, one of my favorite songs of all time is Mr. Waits' "Ol' 55." This was from his valuable 1970's contributions, before he started "subvocalizing" so damn much.
