Touring in support of his classic third album, Small Change, which was released in September of 1976 - this Chicago live date is one of the finest sessions (both in terms of performance and recording quality) from the '76-'77 world tour. Featuring his classic backing group of the time, The Nocturnal Emissions, this is Waits at his drunken, pessimistic best. Available on remastered CD and audiophile quality LP.
