John Hammond (blues singer/musician) has a CD that's all Tom Waits music. Apparently Waits collaborated on it. I was never a Waits fan so I don't know any of the original versions, but Hammond's versions rock. Check it out if you like Tom Waits. The CD is called "Wicked Grin."

His voice 'went'????

He never had it!

His 'singing'(which I like mindyou) is a combination of growling and coughing up flem.

I can understand almost every word now, and all I've heard is stuff from after his voice went apparently. I always thought that that was sort of his thing. At least thats what his wife says.

Thus my smilie after my post!

I don't drink hard liquor, but I feel like you almost have to if you are sitting in a bar listening to Tom Waits. My normal beer just wouldn't do!!

architeuthis

you also have to smoke unfiltered cigarettes too

Ant THAT is probably why his voice sounds as it does!!
