One of the most original and best songwriters in history. Been listening to Tom tonight and i'm astonished by the soul and feeling in his voice. His lyrics are up there with Dylan, Cohen and Young's. At times they surpass them. Sheer creativity from the man. A pure artist in every sense of the word. There hasnt been anyone like Tom Waits ;D I try to get people i know into him but they cant see past the voice? I think i'm a lone figure in Sunderland when it comes to Waits.

No one surpasses Dylan lyricallly speaking but yes Tom Waits is a legend. Have a soft spot for the debut Closing Time as I would guess that's what you are listening to tonight Great album great songwriter. Don't know shit about Sunderland btw tbh : )

His music has always annoyed/bored me, not a patch on Howie Payne tbh

Got into Waits at the start of the year. Amazing artist.
Swordfishtrombones, Rain Dogs & Bone Machine are all fantastic. Really like Blood Money as well. Hope the cunt tours,new single is cool.
