FRANKS WILD YEARS

About Album

"Franks Wild Years" was an album that was released in 1987, after the eponymous play written by Tom Waits & his wife Kathleen Brennan. Inspired by German art songs & carnival music, this "operachi romantic in two acts", this pinnacle of Waits-ness, brought forth gems such as 'Way Down In The Hole', the theme tune to much acclaimed tv show The Wire.
