Tom Waits
Tales From The Underground
Volumes 1-5

Tom Waits is an acquired taste, much like oysters or rare scotch. He's not for everyone but everyone have this set. The raw and rough power of his artistry comes through like a rumblin' freight train on this stunning compilation. Some of his finest, non-album moments are collected on this set of B-sides, promo tracks, demos, soundtrack work, guest appearances, outtakes, and unreleased tracks. The guest appearances include Johnny Cash, Lou Reed, Elvis Costello, Bruce Springsteen, Bonnie Raitt, Keith Richards, Ramblin' Jack Elliott, Los Lobos and Les Claypool to name a few.
