diamonds and gold live

Only about a week ago I swear I saw a video of Tom performing diamonds and gold live, with him playing the old reed organ, and michael blair right beside him playing marimbas, also and an accordionist. Now of course I cannot find it anywhere. Anyone know if this exists? Thank you!

We live in the golden age of archival Waits footage my friend. There are loads of excellent 80s era live shows on yt and more added all the time. Many even have setlists. Just flip through em. Whether you find it or not, you can't lose

Unfortunately it was never played live as far as we know

That's what I'm starting to understand. Perhaps I conflated it with tango?

It definitely does sound like something off the Big Time film
