So yeah, another Tom Waits thread. I know some of you love him. Did anybody happen to pick up the new album "Orphans?"
I got it for Christmas and I can't stop listening to it. In case you haven't heard, it's a different album for Mr. Waits. It's sort of like a mini-box set. A three disk collection of new and old (unreleased?) songs.
The thing that makes this album neat is also its weakest element. The three disks are separated by style. The first disk (which is my favorite) is mostly a collection of his more "rockish" pieces. The second disk is reserved for his more soft, jazzy, mellow style. While the third disk is a mix of rock, jazz and odd . . . with tracks that suit a vintage feel and other tracks that are poetic readings and mere speaking.
All in all thought, it's another edition to have for your Tom Waits collection. I was masturbating
