Our Take

Step right up, music lovers, because Tom Waits is back with yet another masterpiece of musical mayhem! "Small Change" is the kind of album that makes you want to pour yourself a stiff drink, light up a cigarette, and settle in for a wild and wacky ride through Waits' twisted world.

From the moment the opening track "Tom Traubert's Blues" kicks in, you know you're in for a treat. Waits' gravelly voice and off-kilter lyrics are on full display here, painting a vivid picture of late-night dives, broken hearts, and boozy regrets. It's like being transported to a smoky jazz club in the middle of nowhere, with Waits as your charismatic and slightly deranged host.

The album is a mix of blues, jazz, and rock with a healthy dose of Waits' signature wit and charm thrown in for good measure. Tracks like "The Piano Has Been Drinking" and "Jitterbug Boy" showcase Waits' storytelling prowess, while songs like "Bad Liver and a Broken Heart" and "The One That Got Away" tug at your heartstrings in the most delightful way.

Overall, "Small Change" is a wild and wonderful ride through the mind of one of music's most unique and eccentric talents. So grab yourself a drink, put on your best fedora, and prepare to be whisked away into the strange and wonderful world of Tom Waits. Cheers!
