Tom Waits[views:4287][posts:19]____________________________________ [Sep 16,2009 10:01pm - LPCustom ""] Any fans? Guy is a genius. |
| __________________________________ [Sep 16,2009 10:04pm - Doomkid ""] Closing Time, Raindogs, Blood Money are the favorites. Weird and awesome, he is a huge inspiration. I wish to be as cool as him someday. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 16,2009 10:07pm - LPCustom ""] How about Bone Machine/Orphans/Alice!? Need Closing Time and more earlier stuff but Rain Dogs and everything on is incredible! |
| ________________________________________________ [Sep 16,2009 10:08pm - IllinoisEnemaBradness ""] bone machine saved my life Alice is awesome edit, meant to say BloodMOney is awesome, i didn't like Alice all that much |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 16,2009 10:17pm - LPCustom ""] If you've never seen it YouTube-ing his appearances on Letterman are well worth your time. Pretty hysterical shit! |
| ________________________________________________ [Sep 16,2009 10:22pm - IllinoisEnemaBradness ""] i like watching him on Roy Orbison's Black and White Night when PBS is looking for donations. He's playing this little toy piano, wailing the shit out of it! |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 16,2009 10:23pm - LPCustom ""] I've never seen or heard of that but it sounds like I need to find it, haha. That's awesome! |
| ________________________________________________ [Sep 16,2009 10:47pm - IllinoisEnemaBradness ""] it is a great show. He had an allstar band and lots of guest stars plus it's in black and white |

| ____________________________________ [Sep 17,2009 1:46am - Y2K12hype ""] "It's dreamy weather we're on You waved your crooked wand Along an icy pond, with a frozen moon A murder of silhouette crows, I saw in the tears on my face And the skates on the pond, they spell Alice" the man is my hero. now i'm gonna have to listen to that entire CD tonight |
| ________________________________________ [Sep 17,2009 2:17am - josh_hates_you ""] i love tom waits. Blue valentine is so under rated. Love that fucking cd. Not a big fan of closing time or heart of saturday night even though the songs are good. just don't dig the clean voice. Sounds billy joel-ish. Orphans has some cool stuff on it but overall is not one of my favorites. guess that depends if you view it as one collection or 3 seperate discs. bastards is awesome. like mule variations and small change a lot. I dont have alice....i think that's the only one where he doesn't play piano. |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 17,2009 2:24am - Y2K12hype ""] nah, that was Real Gone http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_Gone Real Gone was the album that got me addicted to Tom Waits but I'd have to say my fav is Blood Money. |

| _______________________________________________________ [Sep 17,2009 12:22pm - Where is my stimulus check? ""] over-fucking-rated |
| ____________________________________ [Sep 17,2009 12:31pm - arktouros ""] Rain Dogs is supreme, sometimes nothing beats his filthy fucking folky blues. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 17,2009 1:14pm - JustinSteele ""] If you go to http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=92916923 you can download a podcast of his live performance in Atl GA. I drove down with a couple friends just to see it and it was completely fucking worth it. The man is so goddamn good. |
| _______________________________________ [Sep 17,2009 5:31pm - neverpurified ""] Small Change |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 17,2009 5:50pm - LPCustom ""] I need to get Real Gone pretty immediately as well as a few older ones that I'm missing. |
