Kacey E. gave it a 9:
If I could give it a 9.5 I would. This album embodies the best of John Hammond and Tom Waits. The only reason I'm not giving it a 10 is because I'm holding out hope that they get together to produce another album again.
Nod R. gave it a 9:
well, i had to choose between this and waits new alice . havent heard alice yet but based on one front to back listen, it's gonna have to be real good to beat this. waits voice is for me a little to eccentric at times. so i dig this collaboration, cuz as a songwriter he is a national treasure. only gave it a 9 instead of 10 only because i've only had a chance for one listen, but my first impression is bring on vol. 2!!!!!!!
Carl M. gave it a 10:
Damn Decent
David F. gave it a 9:
Blues sensibility added to Los Angeles retro-sleaze/ romanticism. But nobody does "Heart Attack and Vine" quite as good as Waits.
Peter M. gave it a 9:
It's great...but the originals still have an axe-edge that's too smoothed out by Hammond's mellow dispassion
