The Early Years Vol. 2 is the second 13-song collection of unique recordings from 1971-1972, captured prior to the time that Tom Waits signed with Elektra/Asylum and released his debut album Closing Time. Features early takes on Closing Time cuts like "I Hope That I Don't Fall in Love with You," "Ol' 55," "Grapefruit Moon," and "Old Shoes" along with early versions of songs from his second album The Heart of Saturday Night including "Shiver Me Timbers," "Diamonds on My Windshield" and "Please Call Me, Baby," while four of the thirteen songs found herein were never re-recorded for any other Waits album. These recordings are absolutely not available on any other Waits album - making this package a must-have for any serious - or even casual - Waits fan. Reissued here on 180g vinyl.
