review 1: This was a pretty darn good interview book. It sure doesn't have a lack of interviews and other writings that involve Mr. Waits. It goes in chronological order starting with 'Closing Time' and ending with 'Orphans'.

I appreciate the archival value of this book and I am very happy to have found it. I hope it will allow others to discover the wit and wisdom of Mr. Waits for decades to come. less
