Title: It's Tom, not the original cast.
Review: I love Tom Waits and was lucky enough to see the musical when it came from Germany to the Brooklyn Academy of Music. The performance was chilling, engaging, and moving in every way. I bought this album thinking (hoping) it was the actual cast recording and was slightly disappointed to find out it isn't. Nevertheless, Waits does an excellent job on some wonderful tunes. I love to play it and reminisce about that performance. This is an essential album for the Waits die-hard. I am proud to own it and to have seen the production. I wish I had had the luck to see Frank's Wild Years in Chicago.
