"He's a real Mensch" - Barney Hoskyns on the music of Tom Waits - Final Season Specials
Manage episode 397279346 series 94368
We're delighted to bring you an extended interview with the man who literally wrote the book on Tom Waits, Barney Hoskyns. Bouncing through a selection of Waits's material from the 70s to the present day, we discuss what it's like to interview and write about artists, what changed (and stayed the same) in Waits's music, and how you should always take a suggestion from Nick Cave seriously.
