Closing Time

by Tom Waits

Closing Time cover art

Prior to adopting his infamously gravelly, avant-garde beat-poet persona, Tom Waits debuted with an incredibly tender, beautifully melodic collection of late-night barroom ballads. 'Closing Time' is a wonderfully melancholic, intensely nocturnal piano blues triumph, overflowing with deeply poetic, remarkably romantic tales of alcohol-soaked heartbreak and profound urban loneliness.
