#339 - Tom Waits - Nighthawks At The Diner
A very lengthy album (yes, it took me over a year to listen to it) with a live performance in a bar or something. The singer has a growling, rough, whiskyish voice and sings/talks over bluesy music. It's hard to listen to for me because a) I don't like the blues, b) I don't like his voice/his style of singing and c) I don't listen so much to what he tells/sings, so the lyrical part is lost to me. It is a very atmoshpheric album, you can smell the cold cigarette dust, you can see the empty beer bottles, booze glasses with lipstick, traces of peanuts or pretzels on the counter, in this regard it's a very strong album, it makes you feel like you're there, it's just that I don't want to be there, at all.
