Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

surprisingly luis was helpful
regarding tom waits
biff dawes told me at a
tom waits gig in the eighties
that tom had previously told biff
that tom found most producers

not able to grok what tom wanted

quite rare live gigs

My introduction to Tom Waits was seeing him open for Frank Zappa in early '74 -- in between his first two records. The book says that tour was a nightmare for him, because of all the impatient fans yelling for "Zappa!!!"

Avatar Fri. 12/12/14 12:47pm chromaphone:

From wiki: "In 1939, Alvino Rey, amateur radio operator W6UK, used a carbon throat microphone wired in such a way as to modulate his electric steel guitar sound. The mic, originally developed for military pilot communications, was placed on the throat of Rey's wife Luise King (one of The King Sisters), who stood behind a curtain and mouthed the words, along with the guitar lines. The novel-sounding combination was called "Singing Guitar", and employed on stage and in the movie Jam Session, as a "novelty" attraction, but was not developed further.

I'm big on poaching chicken breast in brine, then finishing on a grill pan under the broiler. Maybe it would work for turkey?

Roast it simple. Some herbs, a few spices. Root veggies in the pan. Like a chicken. Carrots, onions, maybe parsnips or rutabaga in the pan. That's the vote of the steel picker.

I like brining turkey breast (Michael Ruhlman's chicken brine works well), ruhlman.com...

Then I like to make a compound butter mixing together a stick of softened butter, salt (unless the butter is saltened), something sweet like honey or maple syrup and some chopped herbs of your choice (not rosemary though, too overpowering). Take the mixture, roll it like a joint in plastic wrap, chill, then slice into disks and put under the skin before roasting. I like to roast in a pan on top of sliced onions, garlic, a Parmiggiano Reggiano cheese rind if you have one and a little water so you get a nice jus while you roast.

you can put it in a crockpot. And the flattening always takes less time than you think, if it's fully thawed.

nom, lizardner dave.

My old MO used to be put butter with garlic and herbs under the skin. Put a lemon and an onion in the cavity. Start hot with foil on the breast. Cook it hot for 15 minutes. then take off the foil and turn it down to 350 and cook until it reaches temperature.

Makes a crazy great gravy.

OK, heard the turkey breast request: Here's what I do (and I do them rather frequently as one of our faves).
Gently pull up skin to separate from flesh but not break skin. Place under skin in about 4 separate areas of the breast an emulsion (right term?) Emulsion can be, as an example (use what you have / get creative): Seasoned (salt/pepper) butter pats squished w/ smashed garlic clove, lemon zest and sprigs of fresh thyme, rosemary, sage, parsley. Or you can do the same with feta cheese pieces or crumbles.

Oil breast [EVOO], season lightly w/ salt and pepper. Place upside down on V-rack in shallow pan: Place on lowest oven shelf at preheated 325 degrees. Cook 20 min. Rotate breast to its side and baste w/ chicken stock and roast another 20 mins. Rotate to other side and baste and rotate every 20 min. as many times needed within total cooking time, but ending with 20 mins. breast up.
