I might give Handful Of Rain a seven because Alone You Breathe is one of my favorite songs from them.
bluefox4000 Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 Tom Waits-Frank's Wild Years (8/10) Probably the weirdest of the trilogy.......not my fav but it's very unique. A lot of it has a Kurt Weill feel too it. it's got some good ones though as always Hang on St. ChristopherBlow Wind BlowTemptationInnocent When you Dream (both versions)I'l be GoneWay down in the HoleCold Cold GroundYesterday is Here It's probably my least listened to of the trilogy but i enjoy it in the right mood.

Mick Today was the first time I listened to the trilogy in order...truly an amazing collection of storytelling. I was surprised at just how much I liked "Frank's Wild Years" after all this time. While "Swordfishtrombones" is my favourite, I do agree with you that "Rain Dogs" is the best of the three. 1

Rain dogs just seemed like he got everything in the perfect order he was trying for on Swordfishtrombones. it's the perfect blend of weird and oddly commercial (for Tom, lol) Frank's he just embraced the weird fully, lol Mick 1
bluefox4000 Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 (edited) Tom Waits-Bone Machie (9/10) Tom starts the 90's with a bang. I always liken this to Tom Making a tim Burton film on CD. it just FEELS like a tim Burton film to me. the whole thing is very percussion Driven.....like a guy went in his garage and just started banging on shit, lol Earth Died Screaming'Dirt in the GroundWho Are you (Waits would do Springsteen-esque tunes better than Sprinsteen himself n the 90's, lol)Little RainMurder in the Red BarnI don't Wanna Grow UoThat Feel (LOVE this one) Bone Machine earned Tom some new fans at the time as well.....deep in the grunge era too.

I might give Handful Of Rain a seven because Alone You Breathe is one of my favorite songs from them. Yeah 7 seems about right, I really hate to rate that album so low, knowing its history and how difficult it was to pull together. But it's definitely not as great as what came before or after
bluefox4000 Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 Tom Waits the Black Rider (5/10) this one of 2 Waits albums to really get a low score from me. the other is coming up. this is music Tom wrote for a play rather than an album per se. and yea it's a miss. luckily the next album is my fav waits album.

ST3V Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 Better than Alpha (except for the album art) Howe's absence doesnt impact this album at all, Meyer does a stellar job at replacing him in this scenario. 2

bluefox4000 Posted February 4, 2022 Posted February 4, 2022 Tom Waits-Mule Variations (10/10) My very fav Waits album. and it was like over 20 years into his career. to me this album just has everything i love about Waits in one package. Weird oddball stuff. heartbreaking ballads, blues, rock. this album is like a career summation. Perfect. taking a break now before the final 4 albums. Mick 1
