I'm listening to Tom Waits Rain Dogs. Ask me anything.
I like this CD. I don't know much about Tom Waits. He seems
like a bit of a character.

1. Yeah, he's a character, all right...
he's said "all that I am, I owe to cigarettes and whiskey". And described his voice as "Louis Armstrong and Ethel Merman meeting in hell". If you like Rain Dogs, here are some more Waits albums you should check out:

Swordfishtrombones
Frank's Wild Years (these 2, with Rain Dogs, form the "Frank trilogy"...you really should have all three...they form one work, taken together)
Blue Valentines
Bone Machine
Closing Time
Small Change
Mule Variations
