TOM WAITS

Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers, and Bastards

2006-11-13

The three discs on this Tom Waits’ album create a collective overview of him as a person. They range from the nitty-gritty Tom Waits to the recreating, covering Tom Waits to the unusual story-telling Tom Waits. This album took three years to compile, and it’s no surprise, there is over 3 hours of music-56 songs, 30 of which being new recordings. –Jake Burrett
