ʻO Tom Waits kahi mea hoʻokani pila ʻole me ke ʻano kūʻokoʻa, leo pūlima me ka haʻahaʻa a me kahi ʻano hana kūikawā. Ma luna o 50 mau makahiki o kāna hana hoʻomohala, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo ia i nā album he nui a ua hōkū ʻia i nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni he nui.
ʻAʻole i pili kēia i kona ʻano kumu, a ua noho ʻo ia e like me ka mea ma mua o kahi mea hoʻokani ʻole a manuahi o ko mākou manawa.
ʻOiai e hana ana i kāna mau hana, ʻaʻole ʻo ia i noʻonoʻo i ka holomua kālā. ʻO ka pahuhopu nui ka hana ʻana i kahi honua "eccentric" ma waho o nā canons i hoʻokumu ʻia a me nā ʻano.
ʻO ke kamaliʻi a me ka ʻōpio noʻonoʻo ʻo Tom Waits
Ua hānau ʻia ʻo Tom Alan Waits i ka lā 7 o Dekemaba, 1949 ma Pomona, Kaleponi. Ua hānau ʻia ke kipi mai ka moena he mau minuke kaʻa mai ka haukapila hānai.
He mau kumu maʻamau kona mau mākua e hana ana ma ke kula kūloko, a ʻo kona mau kūpuna he poʻe Norewai a me Scots.
I ka makahiki 11 o ke keikikāne, ua kaʻawale kona mau mākua, a ua koi ʻia ʻo Tom a me kona makuahine e haʻalele i Kaleponi hema. Ma laila ʻo ia i hoʻomau ai i kāna aʻo mua ʻana ma ke kula ʻo San Diego. I kona wā ʻōpiopio, ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia e kākau i nā mele a ua hoihoi i ka hoʻokani piano.
I koʻu wā ʻōpiopio, heluhelu au iā Jack Kerauka a hoʻolohe iā Bob Dillan. ʻAʻole ʻo ia i poina e pili ana i nā mele kahiko a mahalo iā Louis Armstrong lāua ʻo Cole Porter. ʻO ka hana ʻana o nā kiʻi i hoʻokumu i kahi ʻono hoʻokahi, ʻo ia hoʻi ka jazz, blues, a me ka pōhaku.
ʻAʻole ʻo ia he haumāna ikaika o ka papa a ma hope o ka puka ʻana, me ka kānalua ʻole, ua loaʻa iā ia kahi hana ma kahi pizzeria liʻiliʻi. A laila e hoʻolaʻa ʻo ia i ʻelua mele i kēia pae o kona ola.
Ma mua o ka hoʻomaka ʻana i kāna ʻoihana noʻonoʻo, ua lawelawe ʻo Waits i ka Coast Guard a ua hana ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he kiaʻi kiaʻi pō ma Los Angeles.
Hoʻomanaʻo pinepine ka mea mele i kēlā manawa, no ka mea, ʻo ia ka mea i kākau i ka "kamaʻilio" ʻole o nā malihini i kāna puke. ʻO nā snippets o nā huaʻōlelo me nā leo mele i paipai iā ia i ka manaʻo o ka hana ponoʻī.
Mele na Tom Waits
Ua mahalo koke ʻia ka hōʻike mua ʻana o ka hana, a ua kākau koke ʻo Tom i kāna ʻaelike mua me ka mea hana Herb Cohen.
I ka makahiki 1973, ua hoʻopaʻa ka mea hoʻokani pila i ka album mua Closing Time, akā ʻaʻole kaulana. He ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe ka hāʻule liʻiliʻi - ua nānā pono nā mea hoʻohewa kūʻokoʻa i ka mea hoʻokani a wānana iā ia no ka wā e hiki mai ana.
I ka makahiki aʻe, ua hoʻokuʻu ka mea mele i nā album 7 e pili ana i ka philosopher-drunkard, e hōʻike ana i ke ʻano o ke ʻano o ka nohona ma nā motels haʻahaʻa a me ka paka mau loa i ka waha.
Hoʻopili ka puhi paka i ka leo "sanding", i lilo i mea hōʻailona o ka mea hoʻokani pila. I ka makahiki 1976 i hoʻokuʻu ʻia ai ka Small Change. Mahalo i kēia huli o nā hanana, ua loaʻa iā ia kahi uku kūpono a kaulana loa.
ʻOiai naʻe, ua hoʻomau ʻo Tom i ka haʻi ʻana e pili ana i ka poʻe haʻalele a me ka poʻe nalo i ka hoʻokani ʻana o ka saxophone a me nā bass pālua. I ka makahiki 1978, ua hoʻohui pū ʻia ka kūleʻa me ka disiki Blue Valentine, aia i loko o nā laina he nui a me nā moʻolelo i piha i ka hana.
I ka makahiki 1980, ua loli nui ka hōʻike - ʻike ʻia nā kumumanaʻo a me nā mea kani hou. Ua pili ka huli ʻana me nā manaʻo nui i kāhili ʻia ma luna o ke kanaka.
Ua hālāwai ʻo ia me ke aloha - ʻo Kathleen Brennan, nāna i hoʻomaikaʻi i kona ʻano nohona a me kāna ʻano hana. I ka makahiki 1985, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻo ia i ka album Rain Dogs, a ua hoʻokomo nā mea hoʻoponopono iā ia i ka papa inoa o 500 mau moʻolelo koʻikoʻi o nā manawa āpau.
Ma 1992, ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka makahiki (10th) o Bon Machine, mahalo i loaʻa iā ia kāna makana Grammy mua, a ma 1999 ua koho ʻia ʻo ia ʻo "Best Modern Folk Album".
Loaʻa i ka discography ʻo Waits he 2 kakini mau moʻolelo, ʻo ka mea hope loa i hoʻokuʻu ʻia i ka makahiki 2011 a ua manaʻo ʻia e nā mea pā. Ua komo ʻo Keith Richards lāua ʻo Flea i kāna hoʻopaʻa ʻana.
I kēlā makahiki hoʻokahi, loaʻa iā ia ka kaulana a komo i ka Rock and Roll Hall, kahi i manaʻo ʻia ai nā mea koʻikoʻi a koʻikoʻi.
Hana hana a ka mea pena
I ka hopena o ka makahiki 1970, ua hoihoi ke kanaka i nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni. I ka manawa like, ua ʻimi ʻo ia iā ia iho he mea keaka a haku mele no nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni.
Ua hui pū nā alakaʻi ʻo Jim Jarmusch lāua ʻo Terry Gilliam i nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni e like me Outlaw, Coffee and Cigarettes, a me Mystery Train. No laila, ua hoʻomaka kahi pilina ikaika, kahi i paʻi ai ʻo Jim i nā wikiō wikiō no kahi hoaaloha, a kākau ʻo ia i nā leo kiʻiʻoniʻoni.
I ka makahiki 1983, ua ʻike ʻo Francis Ford Coppola (kahi kaulana Hollywood kaulana) i ke kālena o ka haku mele a kono iā ia e pāʻani i ke kiʻiʻoniʻoni Cast Away. A laila hui lākou ma mua o hoʻokahi manawa i ka hana ma nā kiʻi ʻoniʻoni "Dracula", "Rumble Fish".
ʻAʻole haʻalele ke kanaka i ka hale kiʻiʻoniʻoni a ma ka papa inoa o nā kiʻiʻoniʻoni me kona komo ʻana e ʻike ʻoe: "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs", "Seven Psychopaths", "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus".
ʻO ke ola pilikino o Thomas Alan
ʻO ka hālāwai me Kathleen i hoʻohuli i ke ola a me ka honua o loko o ka mea keaka. Ma mua o ko lākou aloha, loaʻa iā ia nā wahine, akā ʻaʻole hiki i kekahi ke hoʻomaopopo i kāna ʻuhane hana.
ʻAʻole ʻike ʻo ia i ka hālāwai, ua manaʻo ʻo ia iā ia iho he kanaka maʻi maʻi a me ka puʻuwai ʻeha, a ua hiki iā ia ke hoʻololi i nā mea āpau. Ua hui lāua i ka makahiki 1978 i ka wā i hoʻāʻo ai ʻo Tom i kona lima ma ke ʻano he mea keaka no ke kiʻi ʻoniʻoni ʻo Hell's Kitchen, a ʻo kāna wahine e hiki mai ana he mea kākau kiʻi.
I kēia manawa, loaʻa iā lākou ʻekolu mau keiki hoʻomohala - ʻo Casey, Kelly a me Sullivan. Noho ka ʻohana i kahi hale ʻoluʻolu ma Sonoma County (Kalepa).
ʻAʻole i manaʻo ʻia no nā mea a pau, ua lilo ʻo Waits i kanaka ʻohana hiʻohiʻona i makemake e hoʻolimalima manawa me kona ʻohana i loko o kahi hale piha i ka ʻakaʻaka a me ka walaʻau. Ua haʻalele ʻo Tom i ka inu nui ʻana.
ʻO Kateley ka mea nāna i hoʻokumu a kākau pū i nā mele he nui. Akā,ʻo ka mea nui loa,ʻo ia ka hoa aloha nui a me ka mea hoʻohewa, nona ka manaʻo i mea nui a waiwai nui iā ia.
