entertaining, whether he’s dealing with the earnest befuddlement of Mike Douglas or the in-on-the-

fragmented imagery and haunted scenes, closing song “Tom Traubert’s Blues” transports that smoky
nightclub to someplace much stranger. Summarize this article for a 10 year old SHOW ALL
QUESTIONS Thomas Alan Waits (born December 7, 1949) is an American musician, composer,

admission. Then after a few songs — one of them was probably “ Hold On ”, arguably the most
accessible song in his catalog — I got it, and I became absolutely obsessed for the next few years.
Bone Machine (1992) and Mule Variations (1999) won Grammys for Best Alternative Music Album
and Best Contemporary Folk Album, respectively. Favorite Song: “ Alice ” Blood Money (2002) —
The other album released on May 2, 2002. It’s not as noisy as his other post- Swordfishtrombones
album.
This was always one of my favorite Tom Waits albums, and guess what: I’m right. Inspired by the
work of Bob Dylan and the Beat Generation, he began singing on the San Diego folk circuit.
Pouting camp and clean shaven on the cover, this is Waits saying to his label: “Drop me if you dare.”
They did. Swordfishtrombones (Island, 1983). Quite an intro. Keith Richards plays lead guitar on
Big Black Mariah, while the Uptown Horns’ juddering brass is smeared over crowd pleasers like
Walking Spanish and a slew of film-noir vignettes that throw shade across Waits’ cinematic drift
through urban midtown worlds. His dog gets loose and comes into your yard, and has no license.
Waits is seen here performing in 1997 in a tribute to the late poet Allen Ginsberg. Orphans is a triple
album — more than three hours of music! — containing 24 rare songs and 30 new songs. His cut-up

be a challenge. I was clearly underestimating her importance to the music of Tom Waits. No, I don't
have a drinking problem except when I can't get a drink. She pushes me into areas I would not go,
and I’d say that a lot of the things I'm trying to do now, she's encouraged.” Beginning with 1982’s
Swordfishtrombones, Waits’ music grew increasingly angular and abrasive, more Beefheart than
Bukowski. Like several of Waits’ albums, both are comprised primarily of songs from written for
plays. It’s strange and dark enough that I appreciate but don’t actually like very much. These
appearances are always enormously entertaining, whether he’s dealing with the earnest befuddlement
of Mike Douglas or the in-on-the-joke vibes of Fernwood 2 Night with Martin Mull and Fred Willard
(“Take a load off your act!” Mull quips). They’re also the first Tom Waits albums to be released after
I became a fan. Log in to share your opinion with The Current and add it to your profile. Favorite
Song: “ Come on Up to the House ” Alice (2002) — Tom Waits released two albums, Alice and
Blood Money, on the exact same day. If Bob Dylan had turned his gaze on America post-Nam he
couldn’t have bettered this. The hallmark song is “ Jersey Girl ”, but I’d argue that it isn’t its best.
This supports my theory that the Tom Waits we see and here is largely a fictional character. In 1983
he signed with Island Records, and released a series of albums that stunned the music world. Early

backward — almost like someone trying to make a Tom Waitsian album. It’s a right ruddy racket that

I also think, inside your voice, there are other voices that you have yet to discover and that’s kind of

balladeering of Closing Time to the dark corners of Rain Dogs to the avant-blues of Real Gone. To

Small Change is a tribute to sad drunkenness — a lingering hangover. I'd rather have a bottle in front
of me than a frontal lobotomy.
