Аннотация:

The first-ever comprehensive collection of interviews with one of the greats of modern music Tom Waits has carefully cultivated a public image of a gruff, monosyllabic, enigmatic, even reclusive soul, regularly changing musical direction and wrong-footing his dedicated fans at the rare concerts he performs. But what this surprising and even amazing book reveals is how generous with his time Waits has been throughout his life to those who have sought to interview him, and how eloquent, expansive and revealing he has been in those interviews, and whether to Mick Brown for Word magazine or to a little college radio station. Paul Maher has tracked down literally dozens of interviews with Waits, and collected here they make a truly compendious record of Waits's life, a chronicle of his musical career, and give a fascinating insight into the witty, affable, cultured and admirably sane man behind the rough-hewn mask. Every one of Waits's legions of fans will need to have this book, but even those who find some of his music unlistenable will find it unputdownable.
