- Limited 50th Anniversary Edition
- Double 180g LP Pressing in a Deluxe Gatefold Jacket
- Half Speed Mastered at Abbey Road Studios on 45rpm
2023 marks fifty years since Tom Waits released his landmark debut album ‘Closing Time’. Called “a minor key masterpiece filled with songs of late-night loneliness” by All Music Guide, ‘Closing Time’ features the distinctly lyrical storytelling and blending of jazz, blues and folk styles that would come to be associated first with Waits. In honor of this occasion Anti will be collecting and sharing untold stories, rare photos and more.
The album’s 50th anniversary vinyl will be available as a double 180g LP cut at 45 RPM with half speed mastering by London’s Abbey Road Studios. The gatefold jacket was also specially created with thicker board and black poly-lined inner sleeves.
