Frans van Deursen from Amsterdam is best known as an actor in series such as In De Vlaamsche Pot and Bed & Breakfast. He has previously played his singing voice in musicals such as Miss Saigon and The Official Tribute To The Blues Brothers. Scherven Van Een Leeggedronken Nacht is his first album and consists entirely of Dutch translations from the oeuvre of Tom Waits. Van Deursen is very tasteful… with the Waits repertoire, which was mainly picked from his early, bluesy singer / songwriter albums from the seventies. He does not force his voice (รก la Waits) but sings the lyrics - in which of course there is a lot of drinking by born losers and lost love always lurking around the corner - always clearly audible. In inventive and bittersweet interpretations of Invitation To The Blues, Martha and Tabletop Joe even have influences from Annie MG Schmidt. The modest, bluesy accompaniment was arranged and produced by Wouter Planteisjes. (MR)more
