    Jersey Girl is the song of a love story between a rough looking gentle guy and a frail looking quirky gal. I love Tom and Kathleen together, and all the fantastic works came out from their magicall union for us to rejoice. What a perfect couple! ❤

    Tom Waits is and always has been my "wtf has gone wrong with music...i'm off to listen to something of real substance by Mr Waits"...THANK GOD for Tom Waits...sorry i mean't to say THANK GOD FOR TOM WAITS!!!!!!!!!!
    Feels like coming home.....i met this man's music back in 1989 late one evening whilst hearing his manifestations of zeee mind bouncy off the walls of the loft area in a house of multiple occupation of a dude called Graham, who invited me up and we drank coffee into the wee small hours, with great conversation and Tom's stuff playing on and on..
    Graham and i are still friends....and Tom Waits is still floating around the both of us.
    Great stuff.

      I lived in San Diego when Tom was down here, the SD he sings about in early albums. And I worked at the first stand alone TowerRecords. NOTHING has "gone wrong with music"... there's still plenty of great out there... but it doesn't come up and bite you on the ass. You have to find it. Not enough people look and they should look to find them. Twas always thus.

    This compilation was my intro to Tom Waits. I bought it on a secondhand casette when I was 15-16 yrs old, and I obsessively listened to it. Thank you so very much for uploading this on RUclips as I haven't been able to find that casette for quite some time! I find the versions on this compilation to be amazing and bring back memories of my teenage years.

    Thanks, @Erstauf, for posting this gem for the rest of us. Been listening to and loving Tom Waits since first hearing "Invitation To The Blues" back in 1992, 31 years and about a month ago...I was almost 20 and about to discover my inner bleeding heart artiste...and I'm still on this blessed pilgrimage on this lovely blue-and-green marble we call Earth. Tom Waits is unparalleled as a songwriter, storyteller and poet of the heart. Cool human, too. Totally digging these "lost" tracks. 💗🙏🏼🎶🪷

    Tom était beauté, message, violence et rêve, mais surtout l'instrument puissant d'une volonté formidable. il disait "Je veux" quand beaucoup d’autres marmonnaient "je voudrais" Il a atteint son but sans se plier à la plus infime compromission, comme une charrue accrochée à une étoile. Une fois pour toutes, ce poète-là traçait son chemin et ne s'en écartait jamais, refusant toute flagornerie qui fait de la musique populaire d'aujourd'hui une lasse prostituée 🌺🕊

Which must be the greatest song ever flipping mad, if not at least it's this week's number one on repeating track! Just can't get this itch scratched right now! It IS. THE. THE version of that song.

    Peculiar that Bette Midler and Tom Waits sang this wonderful duet "I Never Talk To Strangers," in 1977 and that was it. They never got together again to record another duet. 46 years.
    Is there bad blood between them? I find it hard to believe that something that worked so nicely was never followed up on.

      Bette & Tom Waits have been friends since the mid 70’s, this is what he had to say on their friendship ~
      “I wrote some songs for her. like “I Never Talk to Strangers” and “Rainbow Sleeves.” As soon as I met her, I felt like I had already known her. We can talk about anything. I love her musical impulses; she has a great sense of history in terms of her involvement in show business. She wanted to open a lounge act together, featuring us as Edie and Edie Wednesday. We’ve been friends for a long time, you know, since ’74.”
      Interview Magazine, 1989

      @ - But that's my point, Tom. Friends since the 70s and have done nothing together since. Why? I find it peculiar. Maybe there was a falling out? Their paths didn't cross since the 70s? Does it matter? Of course not.
