Blue Valentine

by Tom Waits

Blue Valentine cover art

Transitioning slightly away from his jazzy beat-poetry origins, Tom Waits introduces stinging electric guitars and grittier blues arrangements on 'Blue Valentine'. The album is a profoundly poetic, deeply nocturnal exploration of heartbreaking urban romance, balancing his remarkably sad, raw vocal delivery with surprisingly playful, cinematic storytelling.
