Tom Waits is brilliant. I think Closing Time is his best (and one of the best albums ever), but Swordfishtrombones and Rain Dogs are great stuff, too (Soldier's Things and Time, respectively, are his two best songs, IMO)

It was origanally a hort film with just tom and iggy made in the late 80's but recently jim jarmusch shot the other scences and turned it into a feature.

Franks wild Years and Heart of Saturday night are my faveorite Tom Waits albums, One from each of his era's.

I listen to Frank's Wild Years or Rain Dog son a (nearly) daily basis.

He is my favorite singer/songwriter next to Johnny Cash - and I've got my 9 year-old hooked on him too:D
