This was the first Tom Waits album I ever heard. That was the beginning of a devotion unrivaled by any. Tom Waits has it all - fantastic gritty voice, the ability to create whole worlds of imagery thru his words,multi-layered sound and cutting edge scores. His cover of 'Somewhere' from 'West Side Story' on this album is heartbreaking, almost hard to take. No other artist does cool like Waits - evidenced by the story of Romeo - 'Romeo Is Bleeding'.Lyrics like 'and I rip my bleeding heart out every nite'- need I say more? Highly recommended by this music maniac. Check out 'Rain Dogs' as well.
Waits growling, deep singing sets the tone for this modern down-and-out blues CD. It reminds me of long-time addicts', or homeless' after dark lives. Yes, there is still love among the heartaches. Waits is an unusual, but gifted artist who makes this blues CD his own. Recommended for select adult audiences.

The songs of Tom Waits are the songs of everyday people. Got me a cigarette watch The neighbors get the mail. So you need you should if he has more time weights buy some time weights from the sky

It's Tom Waits, specifically one of his pre-Swordfishtrombones albums for when you're feeling bluesy or boozy. Of course it's fantastic.
