Comment:

Tom Waits’ successful sideline in acting surely owes a lot to the wild cast of characters he inhabits in his songs. Amid the murky, marimba-marinated film-noir feel of “Shore Leave,” he becomes an American sailor on lonesome, lurid leave in China. He takes the title role of his album Frank’s Wild Years all the way to the bottom on “Straight to the Top (Rhumba),” where Frank comes off like a wailing, whiskey-soaked lounge singer with delusions of grandeur. And on “Pasties and a G-String (At the Two O’Clock Club),” he’s a heavy-breathing, hard-drinking, gentleman’s-club regular giving a play-by-play description of the floorshow unfolding before his bloodshot eyes.
