PeaceFrogYum Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 I have been on a Tom Waits kick for a few months now and determined it was high time to celebrate one of America's greatest singer-pianist-songwriters, a man seriously underrated. The interesting thing about Mr. Waits is you either love him or hate him, for me, the man is simply perfection as a musician. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 The word 'genius' is overused these days but I do like Tom Waits and he definitely was smart enough to sense a void in the music scene of the 1970s and create a character to fill it. Like Leon Redbone, he was a man so far out of his time that he became timeless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1975NQ Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Tom's great. When I first discovered him, I listened to him constantly and got all his albums right quick. Heart of Saturday Night and The Black Rider are the 2 albums I keep returning to year after year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
