Foreign Affairs

by Tom Waits

Foreign Affairs cover art

Leaning even further into lush cinematic orchestration and smoky jazz-club atmospheres, Tom Waits's 'Foreign Affairs' is a gorgeous late-night travelogue of broken hearts and barroom characters. The album features deeply poetic, wonderfully bittersweet duets with Bette Midler, highlighting his incredibly mellow, melancholic romanticism and humorous alcohol-soaked storytelling.
