Help locate stolen Tom Waits song by 3rd Bass

Tom Waits blows me away,he has an unique sound but one of the mysteries of life is how a great looking guy ended up looking like Kieth Richards is beyond me. Another thing is the song is used as the lead in credits for the HBO series The Wire and Waits get no mention.The second season they went with another song.

he mentions that he admires keith richards in several of the interviews in the book so maybe he secretly willed it so...which would be yet another mystery of life.

i've never heard of that hbo series but it's surprising that he would license the song for it.

i listened to the 3rd bass song and don't know what to think. waits is known for not being litigious (i still don't know what 'take action' means in the interview) but 3rd base used exactly 4 seconds of the music and repeated it for the entire song but put entirely new lyrics to it. thankfully run-dmc didn't get a hold of one of his songs or he would have blown a gasket on one of his old chevys.

shocking, i know, drubin. i've never seen the sopranos either, but at least i've heard of that one. i only just saw 'curb your enthusiasm'recently - which is pretty darn funny. i don't have a tv; i work in film. i'll check out the show next time i'm at my father's.

Check out "Prison Break" and "Boston Legal". I haven't watched primetime showa this faithfully since "New York Undercover" was on FOX.
