Tom Waits: 6 Albums (1973 - 1987)
Not entirely sure what prompted Kostas to post this 6 album review of our Tom but hey . . . . anything is welcome on the gravel voiced Maestro!
Thomas Alan Waits (born December 7, 1949) is an American singer, songwriter, composer and actor. His lyrics often focus on society's underworld and are delivered in his trademark deep, gravelly voice. He began in the folk scene during the 1970s, but his music since the 1980s has reflected the influence of such diverse genres as rock, jazz, Delta blues, opera, vaudeville, cabaret, funk and experimental techniques verging on industrial music.
Albums listedCLOSING TIME 1973, NIGHTHAWKS AT THE DINER 1975, SMALL CHANGE 1976 , HEARTATTACK AND VINE 1980 , SWORDFISHTROMBONES 1983, FRANKS WILD YEARS 1987.
