Wednesday, August 31, 2011 at 8:56AM Tom Waits is an original. A gravel-throated, foot stompin' Coney Island carnival barker who has kept us entertained for four decades now. I remember seeing him in films such as The Outsiders, The Fisher King and Dracula before I was ever really familiar with his records. His new album, Bad As Me, drops October 25th.
