Details
[Edit]"Considering that Tom Waits' entire musical career from beatnik barroom pianist to graveyard blues shouter could be considered one grand oddity, a 56-song collection of ""orphans"" — songs that didn't fit his official albums — seems unbelievable at first consideration. But it's not a matter of the songs being too weird or inappropriate for their surroundings. Some were recorded for tribute albums (the Ramones' ""The Return of Jackie and Judy,"" ""Danny Says"") or soundtracks (Pollock's ""The World Keeps Turning,"" Dead Man Walking's ""Walk Away,"" ""The Fall of Troy""), while many never met a final destination. And some were recorded specifically for this collection. Waits has his own trademarked bag o' tricks into which he often reaches for the primitive rhythm accompaniments and the stalking up-right bass lines that create haunting cartoon-like effects. Highlights are often: a read of Bukowski (""Nirvana""), a tear through Leadbelly (""Goodnight Irene,"" ""Ain't Goin' Down to the Well""), several stabs at Kerouac (""Home I'll Never Be,"" ""Poor Little Lamb,"" ""On the Road"") and loads of his own varnish in collaboration with his wife (""Long Way Home,"" ""Take Care of All My Children,"" ""Puttin' On the Dog""), including the shockingly literal and topical ""Road to Peace.""
