Like most people who have bought this, I did so on the strength of the connection with Tom Waits. But - I was delighted to find someting that was actually interesting. It's not one for the majority, perhaps, as it doesn't have any candidates for singles, no emotional ballads, no rousing choruses, no teenage indignation. What it does have it some honest to god good musicians, who can play anything from blues to zydeco to surreal, sometimes in the same song, and sound like they're having fun doing it. It may take a couple of listens, but it will keep you coming back to it again and again. Definitely worth trying, if most of what gets put out these days sounds uninspired and familiar to the point of tedium. An earthy, warm sound that is a breath of fresh air.

I bought this when it came out over ten years ago after hearing a couple of tracks in a Virgin Megastore... Lost the CD when the car got stolen, but this was the only CD that needed to be replaced. Took a while to track down.
Yes, there is a strong Tom Waits link, but he's not so Extremely Cool. Ahem.

Brilliant, if you like this type of thing! It sounds like an unfinished Tom Waits record. Some clever lyrics and above all, it grows on you if you keep playing it in the car.
