Many years ago, in Boulder, CO, I spent some time with a fantastic, beautiful girl named Jeri from Kearny, Nebraska. She is the one who introduced me to the music of Tom Waits. One of a few reasons I will always fondly remember her.

My father used to sing this to me when I was little…thanks for the tears.

When my daughter was a young teen, I had Tom Waits album Rain Dogs, which having newly purchased, I played over and over. I loved it, but she begged me to never play it when she had friends over.

One of America’s best songwriter. His San Diego seranade is one of the best. Good pick Dan!

Kudos, Dan, kudos. I was actually listening to this song (album version) on my way in to work this morning.

Love Tom Waits. Unique sound to be sure, but man is he ever a musical genius.
