is seventy-one today (7th December), I wanted to put out a birthday Lockdown Playlist (any old excuse!). I am keeping the title of this piece because someone, somewhere is in lockdown - or, at the very least, there is a restriction in movement, so keeping it as a lockdown-themed playlist is apt. This one is all about the iconic songwriter who, to me, has one of the greatest and most distinct voices in all of music. I really love his music and feel that Waits is one of the most accomplished and fascinating songwriters we have ever seen. Rather than give a biography and quotes, I shall let the legend do the talking! On his birthday, have a listen to a Lockdown Playlist that tips a hat to…

ONE of music’s absolute best humans.
