Can't get on the Rhinedogs Site? Here, I made a copy
I have some shows in lossless format (.wav or .shn or .flac), and others in mp3 (specified below). I don't have time now to burn disks but you can arrange for download by ftp or web.
If you have anything I don't, and want to trade, or if you just want to arrange free download, please email me: greg@grant.org (NOTE: put "Tom Waits" in the email subject.)
For general information on Tom Waits bootlegs, songlists, etc. see www.baudson.cute-ice.de/rhinedogs.
Unless otherwise specified, my song lists and sound quality for the files I have to trade are as given on that site.
