In celebration of Mule Variations’ and ANTI- Records’ 25th Anniversary, a previously unheard rendition of the song “Get Behind The Mule” will be released tomorrow today (because I forgr), August 9th.
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.
