Album info:

Tom Waits has been recording for more than thirty years and can't seem to help himself from comming up with unique and original sounds every time he makes a new record. Beat poet extraordinaire, he can claim one of the most dedicated and loyal fanbases around, and remains the same age forever - he's never been young, but he maintains a sense of wonder that most of us didn't achieve in the first place.

This disc is a most revealing collection of interviews - the first ever compiled on the bard of Los Angeles - and contains four sepperate chats with tom from different eras of his career. Starting with a recent discussion where Waits talks about his latest album, his music past and present - and even his politics, the chronology then works back trough the '90s and '80s culminating in an interview from his swordfishtrombones' era.

On this disc, Tom Waits reveals more about himself and what drives him than has ever previously been published. This disc is the first ever collection of interviews with Waits to be released in such a format and will remain an integral part of every fan's collection for years to come.
