Our Take

Tom Waits is back and as mysterious as ever with his album "Foreign Affairs". This collection of tunes takes you on a journey through the seedy underbelly of Waits' imagination, with each track painting a vivid picture of love, loss, and the open road.

From the haunting croon of "Burma Shave" to the jazzy swagger of "A Sight for Sore Eyes", Waits effortlessly weaves his storytelling prowess into every note. His gravelly vocals transport you to a dimly lit bar where the whiskey flows freely and the jukebox plays on repeat.

The arrangements on "Foreign Affairs" are eclectic and unexpected, with Waits blending elements of jazz, blues, and folk into a unique sonic tapestry. The lush instrumentation, including saxophones, trumpets, and even a bit of marimba, adds depth and texture to each track, creating a rich and immersive listening experience.

While some tracks may feel slightly disjointed or meandering, this is all part of Waits' charm. His music is like a meandering journey through a forgotten city, delving into the hidden corners and uncovering hidden gems along the way.

Overall, "Foreign Affairs" is a must-listen for any Tom Waits fan or anyone looking to delve into the enigmatic world of this musical genius. With its tales of heartbreak, longing, and redemption, this album is a true masterpiece that will stand the test of time. So grab a glass of whiskey, put on your headphones, and let Tom Waits take you on a wild ride through "Foreign Affairs".
