Tom Waits - Blood Money - LP

Vinyl LP

Released alongside Alice in 2002, Blood Money grew out of Tom Waits' collaboration with director Robert Wilson on a stage production of Georg Büchner's unfinished 1837 play Woyzeck. Written with Kathleen Brennan, it's a dark, carnivalesque morality play that swings between the romantic and the grotesque — a medicine-show barker somehow stranded in the Weimar Republic by way of Tin Pan Alley. Disturbing, delirious, hilarious and tender by turns, its songs carry a far more direct emotional punch than the surreal Alice.
