Franks Wild Years

Franks Wild Years (1987) more music like this

by Tom Waits

Tom Waits wrote a song called "Frank's Wild Years" for his 1983 Swordfishtrombones album, then used the title (minus its apostrophe) for a musical play he wrote with his wife, Kathleen Brennan, and toured with in 1986. The Franks Wild Years album, drawn from the show, is subtitled, "un operachi romantico in two acts," though the songs themselves ...

Washington Square Serenade

Washington Square Serenade (2007) more music like this

by Steve Earle

New York City has long been more than America's biggest and most fabled city -- it's a place that symbolizes fresh starts and new opportunities, and there are scores of songs and stories about folks pulling up roots and heading to the Big Apple in search of a better and more exciting life. Steve Earle wrote one such song on his 1997 album El Coraz ...

Spirit of the Century

Spirit of the Century (2001) more music like this

by The Blind Boys of Alabama

From start to finish this album defies categorical classification. It employs the best of R&B, Afro-beat, folk, and blues while remaining true to the Blind Boys' gospel roots. And with a tasteful selection of material by Tom Waits, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, and Ben Harper, in addition to their usual array of traditional gospel hymns and folk ...

Beautiful Maladies: The Island Years

Beautiful Maladies: The Island Years (1998) more music like this

by Tom Waits

Tom Waits' brilliance is messy -- he has so many ideas that sometimes unrealized songs are juxtaposed with moments of greatness on his albums. That may make for the occasional uneven record, but each album has its own distinct tone that makes it a unique listening experience, whether it's a masterpiece or a missed opportunity. And that's the ...

Live & Deadly: Memphis-Chicago

Live & Deadly: Memphis-Chicago (2003) more music like this

by The Compulsive Gamblers

The liner notes to Live & Deadly describe the Compulsive Gamblers as "the 1990s' most unusual Memphis bar band" (their clumsy grammar, not mine) and compared to the crude and gritty sounds of their earliest work, this set (recorded during two May 2002 gigs that briefly preceded the band's demise) captures the Gamblers sounding like a bar band in ...

The Wire: And All the Pieces Matter -- Five Years of Music from The Wire

The Wire: And All the Pieces Matter -- Five Years of Music from The Wire (2008) more music like this

by Original Soundtrack

It's about time -- way down in 2008 -- that HBO's series The Wire, set in the hardcore real-life world of Baltimore, finally got around to putting a soundtrack disc together from all of its seasons. The bottom line is that this David Simon-created show, like everything he did before it, isn't like anything else on television. Thank the gods. One ...
