Like much of TW's work, this is poetry growled over idiosyncratic "music".
Waits is a brilliant song-writer, and his songs are poulated by bar-tenders, hookers, sea-farers, & other assorted sub-culture characters.
Wonderful album.

The Beatles - Mono Masters

Last 2 discs from the mono box set. A mop-up of all the non-album material.
Excellent box set warmly recommended for obsessive Beatle-o-philes.

David Gilmour - Live in Gdansk

2-disc live set from DG's last tour.
First disc is mostly from ex-Floyd singer/guitarist Gilmour's poor solo album On an Island , but the second disc is almost entirely Floyd material from throughout their career. Rare outings for Fat Old Sun, & the beautiful Echoes.
This is half a great live album.
