4.0 out of 5 stars If you must buy a tribute album, buy this - its rather good., 8 Aug 2001

By	John S Cookson - See all my reviews

I'd never knowingly heard anything by Tom Waits before I bought this - but anyone who Tindersticks, the Wedding Present and the Violent Femmes like enough to contribute to a tribute album must be pretty good. And this is a rather good album - the songs bear all the hallmarks of an intelligent songwriter, and they are delivered by bands who sound as if they actually care about what they are doing (by no means a given on tribute albums). My favourite is 'step right up', by the Violent Femmes, a long, jaunty and slightly agressive spiel from a salesman making increasingly absurd claims about his product. This is definitely an album worth owning. It loses a star because it's maybe not the most essential album in any collection, as would be the case with any collection of covers - but good fun nevertheless, and one of the best examples of its type.
