Scene + heard: Tom Waits, Sam Smith, Michael Fassbender & David O’Doherty

MUSIC NEWS: We haven’t heard much from Tom Waits in recent years, but ANTI-records has announced the re-release of the seven albums the 67-year-old had put out on the label. 

Most interesting of the albums, all of which have been remastered, could be a remixed version of Real Gone, the excellent 2004 offering that gave us such tracks as ‘Hoist That Rag’ and ‘Don’t Go into That Barn’.

The seven albums will be available on vinyl and CD, and will be released at intervals through next month, beginning with Bad As Me on November 10.
