Closing Time, if you fancy some downbeat, jazz-influenced, amazingly-written songs. John-out-of-Stoat thinks the title track off Blue Valentine is the best song Tom ever wrote, so maybe that either
Swordfishtrombones or Frank's Wild Years if you want the weird stuff. Or Bone Machine
get to know the jazzy/piano Tom waits first.so get any albums pre 1983.
even thou post 1983 with swordfishtrombones might be his best its better to get to know his earlier stuff first. the later stuff is better then.
i would start with Closing Time and the heart of saturday night
Heard that song for the first time recently, now have a soft spot for it myselfOn The Nickle
Am I the only one who likes Blood Money?
I'd start with Closing Time. He didn't sing in the gruff voice on that. And its instantly enjoyable. It took me ages to warm to the barky voice.
