I really can't keep up with Waits. Remember the two albums he put out about a year ago? Haven't heard either of 'em yet. I've got "Beautiful Maladies", the Island box set. That might be were I stop.

I got that Epitaph 'Mule Variations' record, which I liked a lot.

any fans of the HBO show the Wire? Season 2 uses Waits' "Way Down In The Hole" from the Island album Frank's Wild Years that came out right after Rain Dogs. (actually 1987 as well! what a fukkin year!) Season 1 and 3 also use the song, but the gimmick is, someone different does it every season. 1: blind Boys of Alabama 2: Tom Waits 3: Neville Brothers (I miss my digital cable...... boo hoo) I LOVE this album. One of my favorite Waits ever. I would highly reccomend. [url]http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:2d67gjtrj6ip[/url]

Waits on letterman: (With Judah Bauer and Russel Simmons to boot! (anyone hear the new BEX album - now that they arent JSBEX anymore??? JS is still there, just been dropped from the title me thinks) Tom Waits singing "Make it Rain" on Letterman was INTENSE! http://www.tomwaitsfan.com/vid/twinterview04.mov http://www.tomwaitsfan.com/vid/tw_makeitrain.mov
