Negative Positive
Title: One of a kind
Review: This is one of my favorite CD's too; but I don't know if it makes sense to compare it to other Tom Waits, or any other album for that matter. While it -- and Waits -- owes much to many musical genre's, Frank's Wild Years is an original. Nothing I've ever listened to prepared me for the haunting surrealism, and yet many of the songs are heartbreakingly sentimal. And no two songs are alike. I must say that for me it was definitely an acquired taste. I can appreciate one reviewer's comment "it gave me the willies".
Is the review positive or negative?
