The Black Rider contains music written for a theater production by pioneering dramatist Robert Wilson and William S. Burroughs (who "sings" on the studiedly curious "'T'Ain't No Sin"). Perhaps the best track is the darkly hilarious opener, "Lucky Day (Overture)," a little carnival waltz with Waits as a freak-show barker. Wrought in Waits' now familiar Weill-on-the-Bowery style, some of the songs are quite moving, and the poetry is as good as ever. Elsewhere, though, Waits indulges some of his shmaltzier tendencies while Wilson's high-falutin' presence seems to have made the whole thing a bit more precious and pretentious than it need be. It ain't one of his best, but even mediocre Tom Waits merits 55 minutes and 39 seconds of attention.
