Tom Waits- Get Behind The Mule (Spiritual) 7" (2025 Record Store Day Release)

This is a release for RECORD STORE DAY. All RSD titles will be available at the AYP retail shop in Lancaster PA on Saturday April 12th (We are opening at 9:00 that day).  Anything not sold in store that day will be put up for sale through the website.

A previously unheard rendition of the song "Get Behind The Mule" has been released. In this alternate take of the album's iconic track, Waits' gospel moans resonate with raw emotion, accompanied only by a gritty Wurlitzer. This stripped-down rendition amplifies the dark narrative of murder and perseverance, with the lyrics even slightly altered, rendering it with an even starker intensity than the original LP version.
