The music of Tom Waits took years to grow on me and then one day it suddenly clicked. Now I'm in the process of collecting everything he ever recorded. Rain Dogs is an outstanding album musically and vocally. A close listen to the words proves it to be a lyrical masterpiece as well. Go ahead and take a chance on this one...I promise you'll be blown away. 5 Huge Stars.
As usual, Waits has not failed me in the creation of another brilliant, individually aesthetic album. His raspy voice cries out in this strange mixture of blues, jazz, and Louisiana creole. From the hypnotic, trance-like state of 'Clap Hands', to the Mardi Gras party atmosphere of 'Tango Till They're Sore', this album stands out in it's versatility and originality. For anyone who is a Waits fan, this is definately a keeper-though all off his albums are.
In typical tom fashion, im building my collection one record at a time. Each one more telling then the rest. Hes a genius

The Greasy spoon poet, truck stop guru. Waits brings a style to music like a weak coffee to runny eggs. Pop a top of a long neck, bite the filter off and burn that Camal, kick your dogs up on the table and Enjoy classic music from days of a simpler time.

Fine example of Tom.Waits. A unique style all his own...kinda makes you want to "lay back". He has a mellow blues gravel voice that matches the rythmn of the tunes
I like it and i am happy. Ok. Here we go again, 100 characters. I think tha T that is a insane amount of characters. Good day sir.
