I would say I am a fan of Tom Waits, but I have not delved very far into his catalog. I am glad that some of his releases are included in this list. I have not listened to this before but I found it very enjoyable. Waits gets his inspiration from all manner of jazzy and bluesy influences with a vaudevillian atmosphere and lyrics that stem from the darker, seedier side of life. Also being a fan of Captain Beefheart, I can also note similarities with Waits' music there as well. A really good listen, looking forward to experiencing some more from Mr. Waits.
