Tom Waits – “Jockey Full Of Bourbon”

Continuing in the same train of thought as my recent Ray Charles post, today I’m pushing an album that has been deserving of a post here for far too long: Tom Waits’ Rain Dogs, the second in a trilogy that marked his “breakthrough” wherein he started producing his own records. If you don’t care for this gruff voice and macabre subject matter, have no fear: you can surely find beauty in Waits’ earlier work, and then one day realize how much more awesome Rain Dogs is because of those.
