Real Gone

During the Great Blog Blackout of '04, I finally went out and got myself an iPod. Marvelous little thing. I ripped all my CDs, and barely filled a third of it. I signed up for Audible.com, a digital audiobook provider, and have been happily listening to novels and the recent presidential debates on my commute to work.

Over the weekend I bought my first completely digital album. Through iTunes Music Store, I bought Tom Waits' Real Gone. I haven't heard an album this innovative since Peter Gabriel's Up. If you like Tom Waits, and have always wanted to hear him beatboxing, then this is your album.

Unless it includes "Macarthur Park" played on the tabla, forget it.
