Wild Years

More about the book

Explores the music that made Waits a legend and records reactions from those who have worked with him over the years. Also examines the towering myth that Waits has created for himself, a larger than life persona of neon bar lights, race forms and desperate dreams that Waits has created over decades of interviews. It reveals a complex and fascinatingly brilliant man who is comfortable portraying a role of off-beat music legend and yet is resolutley protective of his true private life. Includes full colour and black and white photographs.
