Sinopse

.It's almost 40 years since Tom Waits' debut record, and during a career that, for most fans, has quite simply gotten better, more exciting and more challenging with each new release, he is surely the only performer and writer from the rock age to be consistently satisfying while remaining as difficult to predict as the weather. This double DVD set, with the aid of plentiful archive footage, interviews with the man himself and contributions from his nearest colleagues, reviews Tom's career from the beginning when he worked as a struggling songwriter to stardom and his most recent records.
