Tom is the newest edition to my musical loves.
I like to think that Tom found me.
I had always known who Tom Waits was; he was always just
there.
But then I got a free CD with Uncut Magazine and Tom
was on it. He came to me.
I can still remember where I was the first time I heard
him.
It was "All the World is Green" from the "Alice" CD and
I was in my car going to pick up my mother for lunch.
I'd never heard anything like it and I'm always drawn
to the unusual.
So all of a sudden, there was Tom. Within a few months
I had gathered six of his albums, and that's
just scratching the surface of his material. If you've
got a taste for the unusual, check out Tom.
